The Acolytes - Tempo froze time and nicked his body. He's actually dead, but Exodus is going to unkill him... but not without some serious glitches to work through: http://www.marvel.com/news/comicstories.2327.Carey_Talks_X-Men_Legacy

Do you mean Uncanny? X-Men's becoming Legacy.

There's an interim arc following Cyclops & Frost; Angel; and Nightcrawler, Colossus & Wolverine. Then there's going to be a new core team starting in #500 - the FCBD X-Men cover suggests it's the AXM team with Nightcrawler and Pixie replacing Beast and Shadowcat.

Darwin's the replacement for Wolfsbane.

Bishop's the bad guy. He's even been given a metal right arm because Cable has a metal left arm to show how they're mirror images...

Frankly, it looks crap, and this is coming from a Cable fan...

Miller's story is a future story. That sounds, as this guy so succinctly put it , like "a plot that was developed before the licensed characters to fill it out were chosen. I suppose it's just possible that Millar will make everything seem like an organic outgrowth of the characters, but this synopsis is somewhere between a random pop-culture collage and deliberate Internet bomb-throwing of the sort Millar's indulged in before."

Warlock's due to appear in Nova #11-12 anyway, when Nova visits the Technarchy homeworld.

My views are my own and do not reflect those of everyone else... and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Ellis is taking over for Whedon? Awesome, another book I can drop from my pull-list.

Which leaves me with PADs X-Factor for Marvel. Yikes. I hadn't realized it had gotten that small!

I've never liked anything Ellis has done until recently with Thunderbolts. So I am looking foward to his AXM.

Uncanny is what I'm really excited about. That's Brubaker right? A story in San Fran with Angel, Scott, and Emma? That sounds awesome!

I've always wanted Angel to move out west and lead his own X-Men with possibly Bobby at this side. San Fran is where I would've put them as well. So I am pumped. (as for the other members of my San Fran team? Skids, Meltdown (boom boom), Leech, and a wildcard...maybe villain)
