When will see Hisako Ichiki, Sunfire, and Kenji Uedo lead the prison break, like Basilisk?

I get the impression from Carey's gushing over Magneto's secret agenda that we are suppose to see him as the great hero by the time the story is over.

i was expecting this interview so much and now i´m dissapointed. Nothing about the New Mutants? Even Dani? Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Yeah, Legion's creatures were more noticeable, apparently.

man i love legion and how u can see all his personallitys hanging out in the background. I am kinda sad though that hes moving to x-men legacy instead of staying with the new mutants..sigh

Unless it's a misdirect, the presence of the clown and the gnome tipped the hand of what's going on...
Also, just realized that Fortress X visually reminds me very much of the war torn landscape that Professor X, Cypher, Moonstar, Moira, Wolfsbane, Tom Corsi, and Sharon Friedlander were pulled into during New Mutants Vol.1 #26-28. It, too, had a shielded dome that was under threat of being broached, although from the outside. Of course, those extra inhabitants of Fortress X makes much more sense now. Considering where this is probably happening, it is fitting why so many of the heroes take on different names/personas in this setting and why Rogue, (who has had multiple personality-like disorders in the past) gets to have two names. Too bad Aurora wasn't around for this story... is she on Utopia right now? She and Legion might've helped each other out.

Kind of nitpicky, but it bothers me that a writer of Carey's caliber misused the phrase "could care less".

I still love him though.

As of Nation X's storyline, Aurora is living back in Canada.

The odd characters (garden gnome, axe-wielding clown) seem to be indicative that this entire "dystopia" is someone's dream. Who?

sounds like something psylocke dreams of when she gets drunk. it explains why they aren't wearing shirts.

Lots of exposed asses, too. I think Fat Blue Slob has a pretty prominent asscrack on display. Still, no one cares what that racist lush dreams about. I think Carey's going to wow us. Like Bobby Ewing the shower WOW! (google it, youngsters).

I believe you'll see some of those characters in opening arc of Zeb Wells' New Mutants.

If this is taking place where I think it is, perhaps the many shirtless men are NOT a complete accident... back in the day, Cyndi expressed a LOT of interest in Cypher. If you could remake the world, why not populate it with hotter versions of the people around you?

"Excommunication is a religious censure used to deprive or suspend membership in a religious community."

I get the title of these interviews is supposed to be a pun, but really? Not that well thought out.
