That would be a good way to get rid of him for good, he is such an uninspired creation. Um, codename 'X-Man'? That's so stupid. The only thing that makes me hope it's not him is that they said every character is A list, and from what I can tell an A-lister Nate Grey is not.<br /><br />But I do hope it's Magneto instead. <br /><br />Yup, I hope the vampire thing is at least fun and interesting since they're using a pretty generic premise to begin with.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596031626753539266.post-37679630888304298752010-04-20T11:39:26.393-03:002010-04-20T11:39:26.393-03:00Yup, the X-Force team will most likely be Logan, P...Yup, the X-Force team will most likely be Logan, Psylocke, Fantomex, Deadpool and either Magneto or Nate Grey (I'm hoping for Magneto; Nate Grey sucks, but since the first arc will deal with Apocalypse, we may get the fake Cable boy since he has more connections with Apocalypse).<br /><br />About the new X-Men series, I guess (and hope) Gischler will use a rather different team than the one Fraction uses in Uncanny (although both will most likely have Scott, Emma and Logan). So I guess Betsy won't be a regular member in both teams, she'll probably be a regular character in either X-Men or Uncanny.<br /><br />But she'll definitely be in the Mutants vs. Vampires arc (which I hope is a good arc, because the idea could lead to either an epic fun story or to an epic failure).FSakernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596031626753539266.post-41844042140583478452010-04-20T10:56:02.576-03:002010-04-20T10:56:02.576-03:00omg, if someone suggests one more time that the fe...omg, if someone suggests one more time that the female silhouette is Elek-suck, I'm gonna yell. She's one of the guest stars, the silhouette has no bandana, Elektra is not a mutant, and no Sais. Plus, why would they get excited about anybody so boring as her. <br /><br />As someone said above, Magik has a big sword, not a katana, and no sash thing. <br /><br />If it's Warren that would make sense, honestly I didn't read X-Force regularly so I didn't know Deadpool had a former connection to it, so if Shatterstar doesn't have a former connection to it and the bird guy is not Warren than I guess it's Deadpool. <br /><br />However, when they said that one of the members has operatives on the lookout for Apocalypse, I can believe that to be Magneto or Warren but I dunno.<br /><br />All I know is vampires is a totally uninspired idea - this totally wreaks of OMG, Vampires are popular now, let's get the kids to buy X-Men by putting them in the comic!<br /><br />Yes, Twilight ruined Vampires.

The teaser articles from the author mentions a countering force to Wolverine. Someone on the team who tries to make sure the team doesn't become a purely vigilantly execution squad. When I first read the promos about the new X-Force and assumed Angel would be involved with helping to track down Apocalypse, I thought he would naturally be the co-captain. Now, after reading the comments by the author, I'm thinking Psylocke may be the calming co-captain of the squad.<br /><br />She isn't afraid of killing, but is more reserved about doing so than Wolverine or Angel, Fantomex, and Deadpool for that matter (if that's the team line-up).<br /><br />This may be Psylocke's opportunity to shine as a character and as a leader...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596031626753539266.post-72298877113825806232010-04-20T10:07:06.623-03:002010-04-20T10:07:06.623-03:00The author states in the article that "these ...The author states in the article that "these are the hardcores of the X-family" (referring to the new X-Force), so I think we can definitely remove Elektra from the mix.

The character is holding a katana/sword not a sai. Elektra's iconic weapon which she is seen with in almost all her visuals is the sai. The katana is Psylocke's weapon of choice (outside of her Psi-blade). Plus, from the article, the creative team mentions "duality" of character and being a "heavy hitter." Psylocke definitely has duality of character, we saw that explored in the Psylocke mini where she had to decide on what ground to kill Matsu'o. As for being a heavy hitter, an entire page in X-Men was devoted to showing that she was a heavy hitter when questioned by Colossus.<br /><br />For the flying silhouette, I think it has to be Angel...remember the writer states that one other character has a direct connection to the previous X-Force team and a connection to Apocalypse. Magneto doesn't fit the bill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596031626753539266.post-67316264101064380452010-04-20T09:45:17.198-03:002010-04-20T09:45:17.198-03:00for the last time...elektra was featured in the WE...for the last time...elektra was featured in the WE ARE THE X-MEN teasers that represented the new X-MEN comic book....that will feature the vampires in the first arc and many MU guests.....more present in the hole MU....<br />If the guy is shattestar than the other is archangel....but otherwise, apart from logan, there is gonna be only one former member so if he´s Deadpool the other one is likely to be Magneto or a caped flying A-Litsers....and Psylocke IS a havy hitter, a-lister in the X-Universe nowadays, plus a katana is her trademark and she has a sash...Magyk doens´t and have a bigger sword.
