Wow. Just...wow.

Cover to X-Men: Legacy #245. Showing the characters we've seen teased so far...and more: Avalanche, Jubilee, Storm, Colossus, Namor, a few characters I'm not entirely certain of (is that pink-haired girl a wingless Pixie or a pre-Asian body Psylocke?), and...Chamber. But this is not the world we know and love.

Apparently it's an alternate reality (I know, I know, we're all shocked). One that's "never known the X-Men." I'm intrigued. "A world where mutants were never organized, but their enemies were." So, I take it Basilisk IS Cyclops and Revenant is Jean Grey. But does that make Berserker John Proudstar? And how did Hellion lose his arms? And who, or what...is the "character, kind of, called X"? So many questions, so few answers.

Apparently it's connected to Earth-616, and that's going to be revealed in the story. And this reality's Magneto is apparently doing the organizing against the anti-mutant forces. And, ooh, "pairing up characters who normally don't interact." Is that why they were revealed in pairs? And are those pairs we'll see in the event?

This just keeps getting more interesting. I see a lot of promise here, and I can't wait.
