    I like the word 'ensemble'.

    No. More. Love. Triangles. Please resolve this before you leave, Mike. Please don't ruin the book before it starts, Gage.

    I wish there was more preview art and talk about Rachel and Gambit.

    Damn got to say i'm dissapointed it's still a Rogue book, with that team it would of been good for everyone to get equal focus.

    I so excited for this book! I wonder how much Gage will pick up that Carey set up because there's a lot of dangling plot lines.

    Chamber's repowering
    Blindfold's family
    Omega Sentinel's coma
    The unmentioned relationships from AoX (as well as anything from AoX that had potential to come out in the real world)
    Hellion's rage
    Ariel's revival
    Luz and her role within the Children of the Vault
    The possible return of Proteus

    I would say Exodus, but Gage will be addressing that! YAY!

    Because I don't know a lot about some of the cast and I am thinking of picking this up (since it's still 2.99), I have a question based on some posts I read:
    Are Rachel & Frenzy lesbians?

    Rachel is....questionable. But Claremont seems to write most of his women with homosexual tendencies. So who knows. Frenzy, as far as we can tell, no. She had/has a thing for Cyclops.

    Oh, wow. The "Jean Grey School". Low blow Logan, low blow...

    Plus is Cyclops not a product with Professor Xavier's dream, something that involved teaching on one floor, while training kids to be his super soldiers, or "X-Men", in the basement?

    U mean that Rachel is seen being atracted both to men & women, or that she could be, because of a certain depiction?

    I wonder if Professor Carey would be able to Marry Rogue and Magneto in his last 2 issues.

    I was going to drop this book before. Now? It's secured me staying!
    And Rogue looks as delicious as ever.

    A little of both, it seems. It's hard to describe. Anyone else want to weigh in on that subject? There's been threads about it.

    I'm loving what I'm hearing. Life in and outside the Institute. I can't keep thinking this will be an awesome buddies-book. That friendship element that's been lacking for so long in the X-Men books will finally be back. Or at least I hope so.

    I don't think it will necessarily focus on Rogue. It's a legitimate question to ask Gage, because the book has been focusing on her, but his anwers make me think it will be a team book with Rogue as one of the main characters.

    But yeah, everything about this sounds awesome. I wish the art wasn't so cartoony, but that has nothing to do with Baldeon's skills, more of a preference of mine, really. It will grow on me, I'm sure!

    "First up, in #260.1, we have the N'Garai, the other-dimensional demons who have bedeviled the X-Men since "Uncanny X-Men" #96! A bit of classic X-history to start things off is, I think, a good thing."

    Hell. Yes.

    I never hear anyone else clamoring for them like me, but I always loved the N'Garai. They're one of the things I've missed most about them leaving Westchester and I'm very excited someone's decided to pick up that thread so quickly. I can't believe it hadn't occurred to me before, but rationally speaking, with no one occupying the mansion, the cairn has been largely ignored. It being one of the first threats the X-Men have to address upon moving back makes too much sense to be left alone and I applaud Gage for coming up with it so quickly. It's a longshot, but I'm hoping it involves picking up on the Ru'tai thread from way back in Kelly's run on the title (Was Pilgrimm or whatever his name is from X-Men #75 ever addressed?).

    Either way, yay N'Garai!
