Uncanny X-Men #514 Cover

Here it is! Although Marvel's August solicits won't come out until next week, CBR has an exclusive look at the "Uncanny X-Men #514" cover. The art by Terry Dodson features the Dark X-Men again, including Dagger, Cloak, Namor, Daken and Emma Frost. This should be Chapter #4 of the Uncanny X-Men/Dark Avengers crossover.

Among other things, writer Matt Fraction says we'll see throwdowns like Bullseye vs. Wolverine and X-kids and Colossus vs. Venom. Solicits texts will be up next Monday!

Actually Fraction only says it would be cool to see Bullseye vs. Wolverine, but he kinda implies Bullseye will actually fight the x-kids (you know, the former New X-Men). Wolverine will most likely be fighting his son Daken (maybe with some help by X-23, maybe not).

I wonder who Betsy will fight. If she has to fight a dark avenger, I'd like to see her against Marvel Boy/Captain Marvel (he's a great trained fighter and he's much stronger than she is, but her psychic powers may balance things). If she has to fight a dark x-man, I'd LOVE to see her fighting Emma Frost, both psychically (with mental blasts and stuff) and physically (with hair pulling, bitch-slapping and everything one could expect from two ladies who aren't afraid to get down and dirty)...

I wish I did, but I could care less about all of this Dark X-men stuff. I don't read the Avengers or any other Marvel books besides X-men and Uncanny so I don't really care about all those extra characters. I rather have more Psylocke development and have her be the focus of the next few plots. I wish Jean came back and that's what the cover of 511 was but obviously she won't be if the Dark X-men plots are taking over.

never would of thought emma would be wearing black 0.0 always seen her wearing white

FSaker said...

Yeah, me neither, but she looks good in black. If Selene ever gets killed in the X-Force title, Emma can replace her as the new Black Queen.

As for Jean, I think she'll return by the end of the year or beginning of next year, during the third Messiah saga. I just hope Jean comes back as Jean, instead of that "Hope is Jean reincarnated" nonsense...

"If Selene ever gets killed in the X-Force title, Emma can replace her as the new Black Queen."

Bite your tongue! :P

FSaker said...

Heh, don't worry, Selene will most likely survive!

I'm not sure if she can even be killed; last time Rachel fought her, Selene wasn't physically affected by her, and only the Phoenix power managed to send her away from Rachel...

Selene said...

If she runs completely out of life-force,yes,she can be killed.Early in Uncanny X-Men,Rachel was about to end Selene by unleashing the Phoenix Force on her,but Wolverine calmed her down.

Rogue said...

yes by using his claws on Rachel, that would really calm anyone...
