Right because Idie, Hope and the Lights. Deserve Bigger roles then Storm and Gambit.
As for those two getting bigger roles well anything in the core books would better then what they get now. And I will believe it when I read it.

Makes you wonder how big the changes will be after Schism. I already want to skip over to the aftermath.

major failure on handling of Prelude mini-series. I thought it was important and a lead up Schism, but this b.s. esoteric answer undermines it. So they just all gathered around wondering what to do about an unestablished event? Just to give us "theme."

I don't buy this, as much as I'd like Storm to get a bigger role in the X-Men (I'm not that huge a Gambit fan and he's in legacy a lot) no character deserves a bigger role. There are characters with more potential and characters who have exhausted their potential, but it's not like Spider-Man someone deserves all these books because he's sold so well or is so popular. It's an editorial decision to work with characters (can we tell a good story with them?) and a financial decision to run with characters (can we sell a story with them?). Someone doesn't deserve page time because they're well liked. Originally Posted by Skaddix

Loved the non-answer to the "Prelude To Schism" question. This was one mini I'd gladly rip the cover off of and mail it to DC. What a waste of time and money.

I would rather they just give Storm and Gambit their own ongoing and have them leave the X-men at this point. You either going to have Storm being wallpaper on Cyclops team or following Wolverine which would be even worst. Originally Posted by Skaddix

You gonna get us out of here. With that tight-ass Wolverine outfit on. Now, let's make it happen, asshole

Actually, I would like it if they became number twos for the leaders: Storm takes command of Cyclops' pro-hero team (X-Men) because of her connection of Black Panther and The Fantastic Four, leaving him in charge of Uncanny with Emma; and Gambit takes command of Uncanny X-Force because he can be sneaky like Wolverine.

The answer re: Schism made me glad I dropped the prelude after issue 1. Also glad I'm skipping the main mini. Sticking with the 'side' X-books: X-Factor, Legacy and New Mutants.
