Because bear on bear romance is something that belongs here:




Now look who will be joining the roster (spoilers for newly released X-Treme X-Men #7):




This post serves as a "previously..." for that first scan.

... okay i ama little lost... is that another Dazzler? and Howlette's Herc?

not loving the art, at least not all of it... loving the story though

yay bear on bear love!

[brooms]

is that another Dazzler?

yes.

and Howlette's Herc?

no. another herc.

severed-head xavier and the regular dazzler and howlett from this title spent two issues in different 'verses. howlett & alison went to rescue kurt in kurt's original 'verse while xavier stayed on the savage-land like world and assembled that new team.

[long_silence]

It looks like when the original team left to rescue Kurt Waggoner, Xavier Head went out and recruited a new team to kill the Xavier from the Dinosaur dimension.

Apparently the new team is going by X-Force. It's kinda like how in the original Exiles there was that other team of reality hoping mutants called Weapon X.

It's a different Dazzler, some version of Hercules (but not necessarily the one who was involved with Howlett or one who would even necessarily be interested), and an African American Cyclops.

or one who would even necessarily be interested

these cruel thoughts...

[rainspirit]

Aww, I was kind of hoping that was a crazy alt-version of Bishop.

[sir_razorback]

An African-American Cyclops dressed in a quasi-modern Union soldier uniform? Now there's a story waiting to be told.

[sir_razorback]

erg.. Grey = Confederate. Pity there seems to be no edit function for random dumbassery moments...

[sir_mikael]

Haha, I totally thought about Weapon X too. If it turns out to be Howlett's Hercules then there's even a parrallel with Clarice/Creed knowing each other but being on different teams.

Thank you, I'd wanted to post that scan of Howlett and Dazzler talking but I'm not set up for scanning.
Haven't had a chance to read this issue yet, but I'm really looking forward to it now.

[insolent_one]

That last page appeares to have a fusion of Dazzler and Cable... I am really looking forward to an explanation regarding that.

[icon_uk]

She's "Fibre-optic Cable"?

Thank you, thank you, I'm here all week... try the veal!

[auggie18]

Augh, I would so be picking up this book if it wasn't for that art. Everyone looks like they're in pain...

[silverhammerman]

I think the art is rotating with every arc, so who knows, next month might be more to you liking.

Hercules is, 100%, the hottest dude in the Marvel U.
