• Uncanny X-Force To End With #17

    USA Today have broken the news that February will see the launch of X-Force #1 by Si Spurrier and Rock-He Kim, following the end of Uncanny X-Force and Cable & X-Force in January, and while full-line up to the team hasn't yet been revealed so far it looks like Puck won't be on the amalgamated team.

    Stay tuned for more information as it surfaces.

      Yeah, that's not the full line up though. There are more characters to be announced. Pretty sure Nemesis is on it.

      Edit: http://sispurrier.tumblr.com/post/66...ng-in-february pretty much guarantees that.

      Phil? Is that the correct link?

      "SCIEEEENCE" doesn't exactly scream Nemesis. Actually, the only person who screams Nemesis, is Nemesis' mother when it is dinner time.

      If you've read X-Club it screams it.

      Assumed de-powered.

      But the 'Science' hint is definitely Dr Nemesis.

      Interesting. I looked at the cover again and again, and never realized that was Marrow, I thought it was punk-look Storm.

      Puck doesn't drop, so much as tumble.

      And speaking of dropping the Puck, looks like X-Force just did!

      Yeah, I'd already dropped it after #6.

      I got a little confused by the Nemesis / Dr Nemesis thing, but then I remembered Dr Nemesis.

      USA Today broke the story? Since when do they report on the minutiae of comics series?

      Giles: Maintaining a normal social life as a Slayer is problematic at best.
      Buffy: This is the '90s. The 1990s, in point of fact, and I can do both. Clark Kent has a job. I just wanna go on a date.
      Giles: Well, I, I suppose it was a fairly slim lead...
      Buffy: Thank you, thank you, thank you! And look, I won't go far, okay? If the apocalypse comes, beep me.
