"Ages," Part 1
Wolverine promised Cyclops that X-Force would disband -- he lied. A secret society has resurrected En Sabah Nur, putting into motion events that will turn this age of heroes into an Age of Apocalypse! To hold them back, Wolverine and Archangel bring together Fantomex, Deadpool, and Psylocke to form The Uncanny X-Force! Stained by their history, they are the only ones capable of making the hard resolutions necessary. A band of likeminded friends and mercenaries set to one purpose, one big ugly task -- kill Apocalypse by any means.

I totally agree with the comments about "thousands of" whatever attacking Utopia.


"With thousands of vampires poised to attack Utopia"
"the X-Men’s best hope for survival " blah blah blah

First of all, just for a change, could they have used something other than "hope" in this line, maybe chance or even shot at would do.

Who is the girl on the cover with Emma and sebastion????


Emma needs to be on her own agenda again she's just not xmen material I've always liked in the 80s how she was a villian but but not a TOTAL villian kinda similar to Magneto...she needs that edge to be like able pushing her into the new generation jean grey matriarch of the xmen was a TOTAL mistake on the writers behalf!! she needs her own group of followers with their own agenda im sorry she just does not belong as an xman!!

Fraction love him some Emma, every story involves her somehow. Least Emma's not going to be in MVC3. Hope Psylocke gets alot of love in Uncanny X-Force.

"Who is the girl on the cover with Emma and sebastion????"

It's Kitty "boring" Pryde.

And I agree, Emma is too dependant of Scott nowadays. She should have a hidden agenda, even if it isn't an evil agenda. I don't know, if Cyclops had a black-ops team not long ago, Emma should be able to have a similar project, maybe rejoin the Hellfire Club just to keep an eye on the other kings (although Selene supposedly destroyed the Club in Necrosha, but the Club always rises again) or something like that.

Why *are* the X-Men always being attacked by swarms of things lately? :D Whatever happened to one bad ass villian just kicking the stuffing out of the X-Men like in the good ol' days?

Emma definitley needs her edge back, theres no reason why she cant atleast have a band of Hellions again to corrupt. I was thinking about Utopia and how stupid Emma's whole double cross thing was, they really need to get her back on track as a character.

Check out this interview with Nick Lowe, when asked about Psylocke and Angel getting back together, he says, 'there's gonna be some action'.

Why all the talk about Emma and Kitty? No mention about Psylocke being in the new X-Force?

Surely Psylocke fandom is good for more than whining about other characters?

Its great Betsy is on X-force, is the only girl and is getting her edge back. But I really don't want her back with Warren its what ruined her the first time and blatantly this is why she has been put on that team.
