User blog:Johnnybravo44/Two new X-Force books

First we have Cable and X-Force starting in December with Dennis Hopeless as the writer and Salvador Larroca (my favorite artist!) and Frank D'Armata working on the art. Hopeless admits that it's another reinvention of the X-Force team, but that it will be similar to the original team we all know and love.



The book will start with Cable, Colossus (no longer in his Juggernaut form...not sure if permanent), Dr. Nemesis (sporting a new look), Forge (sporting a new...well, he's alive again), and Domino (as the only other former X-Force member aside from Cable, the leader) being hunted down by the Uncanny Avengers, specifically led by Cable's uncle (though appearances may be deceiving), Havok.

Next we have Uncanny X-Force starting in January 2013 with Sam Humphries as the writer and Ron Garney working on the art. This book will continue Psylocke's Uncanny X-Force, but take place six months after the end of Rick Remender's current run.

And the members of this killing squad so far are surprising. Storm? Puck?! Spiral?!?! No wait, Spiral would be AWESOME here. And this team's first villain? Who else but Bishop?

So after reading all the info so far on these two new books...I'm.. kinda liking both. So many questions are already in my head though: How will Psylocke's team find Bishop? Why is Cable's team being hunted? Why is Storm a killer? How is Forge alive again? Why/how did both of these teams get together? Who really cares about Puck that much, and especially to see him become a murderer? And many more.

I'll definitely pick up the first book of each, and decide along the way if the book is good or not I suppose.. Both do have great points, but also flaws... The team up between the two teams would be amazing however, and I await the new members announced to Psylocke's team. I must admit I'm glad to see Wolverine and Deadpool missing from BOTH teams too.

Oh! I'd love to see Marrow on Psylocke's team! And Gambit, Frenzy, and Random would be awesome as well! I wouldn't even mind it if Maggott returns.

But what about you? Are you excited for both? Just Cable's team? Just Psylocke's team? Neither? Or what? Leave a comment below letting me know! And if you have any speculation for extra members to Psylocke's squad, guess away! :)
