Marvel.com. X-Men editor Nick Lowe: "Nate Grey was the hope for the future, but he's been torn apart by the present. Can he get himself together and fulfill his destiny?""When The Scarlet Witch said 'No more mutants,' bubblegum-chewing X-gal Jubilee found out just how bad life can get. She's de-powered and depressed. But is the world done with Ms. Jubilation Lee?"

“For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

Oh...my...gawd! This has just gotten to be waaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond interesting.
OMG. X-Men Twilight! hahahaa LOL
hummmm! very curious now to see were all this is going! looks so crazy it can actually works...who knows! just affraid that our gal may be overshadowed by elektra ninja skills and nate and hope´s omega telepathy and telekinesis....but at least she´s the more good looking and sexy of the lineup! ;)
Marvel has completely ruined the the first teaser with Psylocke and Spider-Man.
What the...
This looks awful. Just awful.
Nate Grey sucks. He was nice in the Age of Apocalypse, but after that he just became a younger, shallow and über-powered Cable. He doesn't belong with the X-Men, never has, never will.
Jubilee would be a nice comeback, but turning her into a vampire is the most idiotic decision that Marvel would take in the last decade (that including Iron Man's characterization in Civil War, Spider Man's One More Day story and Psylocke's two body changes in less than four issues during the Sisterhood story arc). Way to ruin a character forever...
Oh well, I hope Jubilee's transformation into a vampire can be reversed soon, and that Nate Grey goes to join his alternate dimension mother in life after death.
BTW, no scans from New Mutants #12? Although I'm not reading the spoilers, at least we could see more Psylocke in Roberson's art...
Lol
I'm actually Pretty excited about it! I love psylocke, gambit and nate. I like hope and jubilee. And i like vampires! I hope it is a new book and betsy is part of the main cast {no rotating cast crap}
I.ll the New mutants scans when i get home!
I like Hope and I like Jubilee, but not a VAMPIRIC Jubilee... damn, had Betsy been the one turned into a vampire, I would stop reading Marvel comic books right now.
If whoever is writing this wanted to give Jubilee her powers, there are better options. Damn, even her time as Wondra was a better option, being a normal human with high-tech equipments...
Don't get so pissed about it. This kind of stuff happens all the time. She won't remain a vampire forever. This is like when they turn a character into an Apocalypse Horseman...
So far I'm interested in this! Betsy The Vampire Slayer? Love it. XD
I LIKE the fact Jubilee is a vampire.It makes a stagnant charater a new spin.plus i LOVE vampires :)What will Blade have to say about Jubilation???
Everyone keeps saying this is a team book, im really thinking its just going to be one shots of paired up characters.
I used to love X-man and Jubes but this vampire thing seems like one of the worst ideas i have ever heard.
OMG - HILARIOUS! MY WORD VERIFICATION FOR THIS POST IS "BITING" HOW APPROPRIATE.
I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Jubilee went and got herself turned ON PURPOSE. Her entire identity is to be a hero, on the front-line. Even as a child she wasn't ever afraid of anyone (except herself and her destructive power).
With the X-men and the Warriors she found a family - which is most definitely a secondary imperative.
My only concern with it is that I hope she's somehow a day-walker (Maybe Blade turns her?) because otherwise it would really limit her ability to be out with the team... X-force anyone?
My favorite trio has always been She, Logan and Betsy...
@PsySpears (Hey handsome). Long time.
@Fsaker - Hi. Making Jubilee a vampire is a creative spin on a beloved 80s' & 90s character that has been out of the spotlight for years. Making Jubilee into a vampire plus adding her characteristic teenage angst to the character may be a brilliant way to explore her darker side. I can't wait to read this, especially if Betsy is a central character.
Vampires and X-Men don't go together - X-Men has it's own mythology without needing to be upstaged by the cultural baggage that comes with vampires. It makes X-Men seem gimmicky so this decision is sure to result in a creative flop if they're serious. If these are just silly one shots, then that's fine, but hulks, Blade, and a Vampire Jubilee mixing with the X-Men better be just playful one-shot jokes, otherwise we shall start the eye rolling.
