Just read this on Comic book Resources. they have an interview w/Fred Van Lente who's writing a new Wolverine series that deals w/ past adventures of Wolveine:
9. Are you going to be sticking to the X-Men brand of characters, or will you be using the Marvel Universe as a whole?
I actually am trying to avoid, avoid, avoid the usual X-gang so I can stick Logan and Kitty in interesting and different situations with characters you wouldn’t think of associating them with.
Nevertheless, we will see Mariko Yashida, Siryn, Dazzler, Alpha Flight (all stalwarts from this X-Era), and Sabretooth, because I think Sabretooth has a clause in his contract that mandates he must appear early on in any Wolverine title.
