Wildchild in Year of the X-Men promo

Gotta love the placement of the barcode on the #13 Variant:

At least Wild Child made it onto the new Age of Apocalypse posted by Billy Tan due out Nov

Yeah, I considered the HC but the $125 price tag put me off.
Not that it's the greatest rendition of WC though.

I think the poster will be more affordable, Phil. The Omnibus price point at $125 is prohibitive. You can get most of those issues in the 4 volume set of AoA tpbs for $10 new at most conventions, plus maybe $20 more for the remaining Legion Quest issues that lead into it, $60 in paperback new, double that for hardcover in a completely un-portable format? Ugh I might get it anyway because it's big and shiny though.

Check out Wild Child in issue #13 too, not just on the cover. He gets his arm ripped apart, totally bloody and gross, but then he gets better. Unfortunately not featured as he should be because I really like Mark Brooks' version of him.

I really dig the art, one complaint WC's missing arm kept switching sides.

So, will WildChild be appearing in the new ongoing AoA series?

Based on what happened inSPOILERSpaceUncanny X-Force #17, it seems unlikely. I think he got choppe in half by Dark Angel. So unless he has darn good healing ability, he's not gonna be around. We'll know more when the arc concludes in issue #18 due out 12/14/11. AoA Wild Child might be dead!Besides for that, it's a great issue, best comic I've read this week!

Well he does have a damn good healing factor as he did heal his ripped off arm, but to that degree? Yeah I doubt it's that good.
