That interview was worthless. No spoilers or anything.

We want the x-solicits!

I know writing this executive mandated storyline is like being asked to polish a turd and isn't the best way to judge a writer's talents... but still, I'm not impressed. I can't see this title or this creative team lasting long after the X-men vs. Vampires borefest. I think it'd be better suited to an X-Kids book.

And I know I said I miss Gambit about 2 minutes ago, but I'd rather miss him and wait six months between appearances than have him involved with a title/story I suspect will go down in fandom annals as a Very Bad Idea Indeed.

That was worthless.

That is kinda rude. Sure, it didn't have much in the way of spoilers, but Victor seems like a nice guy.

For an interview where a writer isn't allowed to tell us anything, it was pretty good.

He says he's excited for Jubilee's direction, so I'm hopeful. Considering "there for a few issues and then killed" doesn't seem like much of a direction.

It sounds like he wants to turn the X-Men book into Gambit and the X-Men...

I never said that he wasn't a nice guy. I was talking more about the interview. There weren't a lot of questions asked and of course there weren't any spoilers given.

The only thing we get from this is the possibility of more Gambit...

I don't think it was his fualt at all. He sounds like a nice person, far better than Fraction. Its just that more questions should have been sent by us.

Agree on the x-solicits. Hopefully we won't have to wait until friday...


Damn I forgot to ask if he had any plans for Warpath and Domino now that they are off X-Force. As well as Nate Grey since he has been featured in two covers already. Next time.

I feel for Vic. This is a thankless gig. I hope he lands on his feet, though.

[otipep_90]

Does anyone know who the villian is for the next arc? It was said it would be a big bad from outside the x-verse.

Dr. Doom maybe?

It sounds like he wants to turn the X-Men book into Gambit and the X-Men...

You guys are making this sound awesome.

I look forward to his writing. He's seems to have a pretty light-hearted approach. I'll take old fashioned adventuring over the soap opera in Uncanny any day.

It sounds AMAZING!!!

Like previous posters have said this vamp storyline is mandated by the Marvel offices. So i'm going to continue reading as it's soon going to be his own stories and going by his Dracula one shot i'm looking forward to it.

It sounds like he wants to turn the X-Men book into Gambit and the X-Men...

How do figure that? He said that he had some plans to use him in future arcs. Not that he was going to build the whole book around him.

I look forward to his writing. He's seems to have a pretty light-hearted approach. I'll take old fashioned adventuring over the soap opera in Uncanny any day.

The X men could definatley use some good old fashioned adventuring.

Hope Vic knocks this book out of the park.
