There is much speculation, rumour and gossip concerning as to what Marvel will follow their Avengers Vs X-Men crossover event. We know that Marvel won’t reboot their universe, not even with a handy Phoenix. But I am expecting a lot of changing creative teams, new books and new issue ones. Although that’s hardly rocket science.

We’ve run the rumour that Brian Michael Bendis will take over the Xbooks, but I’m also hearing now at Phoenix Comicon that Jason Aaron may stay on Wolverine And The X-Men.

Speculation based on Bendis’ Avengers Assemble work and comments indicate that he may be writing a cosmic book… maybe Guardians Of The Galaxy, maybe Nova, maybe bringing the X-Men back into that world. Could an island off the coast not be enough of a separation from the rest of humanity? Might they need to wander the galaxy instead?

And I also heard yesterday that one of therelaunched, if not rebooted books, will be Iron Man, with the current hit creative team of Uncanny X-Men, Kieron Gillen and Greg Land, moving to that title. Of all the things I’ve heard, that seems the most solid.

At Kapow, Kieron Gillen mentioned on stage how many comics creators want to write Tony Stark right now. It looks like he may be getting his chance.

Bethany and Pepper are going to start finding their fingers to be awfully delicious if Land takes over Iron Man.

Hate Bendis boring dialogs, people sitting chating and nothing happens. They also waste good artist in him. Please send him to a galaxy far away, let him write about those Skrulls he like so much

I don't know. I loved Alias and his work on Ultimate Spider-man was amazing. Haven't really read any of his Avengers stuff, but personally, I sorta of prefer books were people are chatting rather than books full of long, boring action scenes.

Oh yes, I agree in everything. But on the Avengers books he brokes the quintesential rule of drama, instead of actions he shows words.

He put the characters sitting in a table talking and portrait everyone of them by their words. Now, actions speak louder.

If Logan (to put an example) is interesting is because of what he does not for what he says, cause anyone can speak. So all the emotions are build upond dialog, like if the avengers were a reality show.

Also Bendis cant narrate through images.

I really think he wants to do somethig like Wolfman's Teen Titans or Gage's Avenger Academy, something without "action scenes" but Wolfman never gave up on showing actions, beign a date or go shoping or wathever, the gd Jericho was mute!

Gage is a master in mixing dialog with actions, thats why he has so much character development, development is always through action. Blah blah blah.

I dont like Bendis, he is overrated and his style is under developed, he should really pay atention when people say to him he avances too slow, thats the first sign you arent telling anything

As someone who grew up on the X-books of the 90s, I can comfortably say my fondest memories of the X-Men were people chatting and nothing happening.

Nothing happening in X-Men on the 90s? I think we have different conceptions of "something", something is an "event" sometimes a turning point that is mainly represented by an action of some character.

I dont say Im against chating, just against pasive plots, and to be fair yes the X-books were a little pasive cause the things just "entered by the window" some times.

He made everyone sound so damn dumb in the free Avengers comic.

They barely know what Ultron did to the Kree but they know it was bad and Ms Marvel want to sent him back into space...
It was already a dumb idea the first time.

"he may be writing a cosmic book… maybe Guardians Of The Galaxy, maybe Nova, "
Marvel really just want to piss me off.

Yay to Aaron still being on Wolvy and the X-Men.

Nay on Bendis writing marvel cosmic. That's DnA turf, dammit. I don't want Bendis screwing it up.

Gillen on Iron Man is good...but OH GOD NO to Land. Why does he still get work? His art is horrible, and he traces from both porn and in some cases other artists. They could probably hire some promising newcomers to cover his workload for a cheaper price and better quality.

Mind you, isn't Bendis taking over Uncanny? Or is he getting a new book?

I don't know about that. Uncanny and JIM have been double-shipping a lot lately, whereas the August solicitations just have an issue each of them. Although there's also Phonogram and other indie stuff he's alluded to.

Gillen's already writing bits of creator-owned work on the side. Don't be surprised if he can write three books a month.

Gillen Iron Man?

If nothing else, it'd probably be able to balance acknowledgement that the protagonist's flawed with bits of straight awesome on his part.

This. I am so tired of Fraction's one-note Tony it's ridiculous. Honestly at this point I'd take pretty much anyone over Fraction at this point though, just because I'd like something different, even if it's worse. That's probably a bad thing, though.

That's not quite what he said. As I recall he said that lots of comics creators had wanted to write Tony Stark back in 2007/2008 when he was director of SHIELD. Which is not to say he doesn't harbour ambitions.

Oh hell yes! :D

"--and Greg Land."

Oh hell naw! :(

Greg Land is the one copying from porn mags right?

Why dont someone tell him to stop doing that?

Because he sells comics, basically. Seriously, from what I've heard, books get a noticible sales bump when he comes on them.

For the love of god, why?

Anyway, doesn't Land usually come on a book at the same time as a new writer?

In that instance, the increase is in spite of Land, rather than because of him.

From what I've heard? Because he gets his stuff in on time. (easy, when it's not him drawing it, but still)

I'm damn happy with whatever Gillen wants to write, seeing as he's one of my favorite author's in the biz.
I just wish he didn't have to bring Land...

I think this is actually gonna be the most interesting part of AvX - seeing what titles writers and artists end up on after it.

Well, I suppose the fact it's Iron Man means we'll see less tracing of pornography...

Unless there's some armour porn out there I'm ignorant of.

(Please don't tell me there is-I'd like to keep some portion of my sanity, thanks)

I'm fairly certain there's Tony/Tony's Sentine Jealous Boyfriend Armor porn out there.

Expect to see Tony Stark drawn to look like Dale Dabone.
