I think my book has a very clear mandate

I'm still waiting to see it.

Plus, Wolverine is putting these children out of danger... by attacking a T-rex.

This book would be so much better with the Hellfire Brats being out of it. Get rid of 'em already!!

They have won "Worst Villain" 2 years in a row on the CBR X-Awards. Clearly the fans (i.e. customers) have spoken.

I love the Hellfire Kids. I think they're great adversaries with a lot of potential.

[Knightbuster]

Nothing in that interview convinced me to pick up this book again. And honestly as long as the hellfire brats remain the primary advisory then Marvel won't see a dollar of my money for this book.

I was under the impression somehow that Rachel might get some degree of relevancy following the Savage Land arc, but judging from the fact that Aaron doesn't even bring her up when asked about things to come, it doesn't seem much to be the case. Half the time I feel like dropping this title entirely. It seems utterly without purpose and these Hellfire Kids are not compelling antagonists even for an arc, let alone series-wide.

Whatever, maybe we'll get Kurt back out of all this. That would make it somewhat worthwhile anyways.

Thankfully I've got X-Men to look forward to for my Rachel fix.

I hope Rachel is no longer a regular in WATXM actually. It would make me more excited for the new X-men book.

She has an Arc coming up in Wolverine in the X-men so no, she is still in the book. Be Glad because she is finally being used in Mainstream books since forever ago.

Aaron said something about "Rachel being unleashed" again and possibly chasing down the Hellfire Kids. Unless its featured during the Savage Land arc I can't see myself picking up that arc anyway.

No Anole, no Trance, no Mercury, no Dust, no Indra, no Hellion, :-(

Of course they have because CBR's forum population reflects the views of everyone else in the world who reads this book.

That is what many think here.

I might pick up the book again when they go into that arc. With Kid Gladiator gone Rachel is pretty much the only character I care about from that book.

And does anyone think that editorial made Kitty and Iceman break up so that Kitty would be free in the new X-men book?
