Matt Fraction quotes "Fantomex isn't the only character Fraction is hoping to provide with more screen time in upcoming issues of "Uncanny X-Men." "One of the most difficult things about writing this book is getting everybody to this place. The long range plan to get everybody here had some prime movers at the heart of it, while other characters have kind of receded, come forward, and gone back. Northstar has been one of those characters. He's shown up for action sequences but hasn't had much stage time because of the nature of the story," Fraction explained. "Coming out of 'Second Coming,' there's an opportunity for more. Things rotate around and you'll get more time for Northstar and some other characters. Plus, I think after 'Second Coming' our focus is going to narrow a little bit in terms of who our primary characters are."
