Oh, Gosh. They're gonna hurt Hepzibah, aren't they? :(

Anyway, this was a lot of fun. I love how Chris and Craig are always avaiable to maintain this bridge between fans and creators. And I love how excited they are with this project! It certainly translates in the pages.

K & Y interviews are always fun to read, and X-Force #1 was a great start.

Please kill someone called Cayman in a future issue.

WHen they get excited about something, it is easy to see in their work. I hope hepzibah just stays in California until all of the fighting is done

Really great job on the "X-Force" #1 Commentary track.

I'm not actually the fanboy type, but the very existence of this book has me pretty excited -- and I don't think that I've been excited to read an X-book since sometime in 1990s. ("Extinction Agenda," anyone?)

The page previews of this book remind me of how it felt to see Jon Muth's and Kent Williams art in Havok/Wolverine: Meltdown for the first time. It's almost...disorienting how well everything seems to be illustrated and designed. In every way it looks to be the perfect complement to what will be a very engaging tale.

I honestly can't wait to get this book in the mail.

Wow, nice surprise interview. I guess I can forgive Chris for his weak tease of a post in the issue #1 thread.

I liked how they mentioned wanting to see Laura's face, hopefully she'll lose the mask.

I wish this was a weekly book!

It's great that they are so excited about this, I'm sure X-Force will just keep getting better and better every issue.

I'm almost looking forward to see Hepzibah on the book. :o

And it's weird that they keep saying they want to show Laura's face, and yet they have her covered with that fugly mask. Her eyes were always such an important character trait as a distinguishing quality of her (non) expressions.

Look how bad-ass Cyclops is here. Just looking it at him, it's like the only reason he's not doing the missions all by himself is because he doesn't have time for it.

That there put a big smile on my face. :D

Yost has wicked man-love for Cyclops, I can't understand that part. :/

I'm glad I am not the only one that has noticed his major man-crush for Cyclops.

Due to my love of their work on New X-Men I expect nothing but prefection from this title. I feel that they owe me for leaving New X-Men :p Lucky for them X-Force #1 was all kinds of awesome :D

Cyclops could have kicked Wolverine's ass here, he just chose not to.
LOL

I've just become even more of a fan. This guys really know how to give entertaining interviews.

C&C Rock! I loved reading their interviews! However, man, do they freakin' tease us! Haha, you go guys!

My issue hasn't arrived yet, so I'm kinda pissed, but what I have seen online, I am so excited for the series!

I can understand what they said about Laura being the way she is and why, but, please guys! Let SOME emotions in, please?! Looking forward to this thing in issue #4 then!

PS: C&C, its my birthday today, and I know, as a loyal X-23 fan, you guys wanna make my day: Laura and Logan big bro/lil sis scenes, please? :D :D :D

Happy Birthday, Chickrockguitar!

Trust us, Logan and Laura are going to have plenty of moments together. And trust us even more... when the emotions hit, they're big.

Eh, I have to admit, he is getting better. Bru and now C&C are writing him really well. He might even move up to cool status if he ditched Emma.

I certainly can...;) ;)
I love his bad-ass turn of character (he's never been my favourite X-man-male. That is, up until MC...now...I am absolutely in love).:D
I am entranced by the look, the feel, the characters (I fer one CAN'T wait fer Hepzibah to join), the direction of this book and the MO of this team...I was hooked since waaaay back when they issued the first solits...and I said it then...and i'm saying it now...This "type" of x-team is long overdue...X-force has jumped all the way to the top of my FAV X-books.
