Looks like I was wrong and there actually will be a crossover. Nice. Should be fun.

I wonder who's doing art. It'd be great to get just one artist, but that's probably not going to happen.

Also, I'm starting to appreciate the Next Big Thing marketing that Marvel is doing, especially when it touches the lower-selling books that need the marketing hype.

EDIT: Great. A consistent artist is always nice.

Carmine Di Giandomenico, apparently.

The words too little too late come to mind.

Although in New Mutants case I don't think the problem was attention. More the quality.

Might use this as an Opportunity to get into JIM.

Looks promising! I'll check it out.
I may stop reading now to be surprised when I read it.

I really like that Stephanie Hans cover spread. Looks about four issues worth of cover to me.

[Westchester]

YES! So stoked, as I've been reading both books, and they seem like a great, interesting fit for a crossover. It'll be cool to see Gillen writing the New Mutant characters again. Also glad this isn't a new ongoing, because I'm still hoping Gillen will be on Uncanny for a long time to come...

Yeah, it's amazing. I'd love to see her on interiors! Oh and I count 5 covers in there.

I just started buying JiM with December's issue and i don't read New Mutants, i don't think i'm willing to jump into a five issue crossover when i'm already buying too many books, at least i probably won't pre-order it without seeing some reviews of the first issue.

[BrotherUnitNo_4]

First the Omega Effect crossover in April, now the Exiled crossover in May. I hope their next Big Thing isn't another crossover in May.

Yup. I stand corrected.

What utter garbage... So, in other words they're doing a lousy remake of the New Mutants X-Men in Asgard crossover they did in the mid to late 1980's.

Marvel is ludicrously called the "House of Ideas". They haven't had a new idea since the last time one of their Jack Kirby comics was published.

Clearly, Marvel has decided they don't care any more. They won't even pretend they're going to try something new.

Some advice for Matt Fraction, Jason Aaron and Ed Brubaker. Leave Marvel Comics NOW, before their corporate behavior taints your reputations any more than they already have.
