    I was just wondering, I know Dark X-Men the Begining is a limited series, but is there going to be an ongoing Dark X-Men series?

    It's just the limited series. There are also two one-shots that have yet to come out.

    that would be cool and all but I don't see how even Dark Avengers is going to last

    Dark Reign is only a year long event and the third quarter of it is coming up soon with the Iron Patriot Acts coming up

    What's going to happen to the "Dark" books after the Marvel Universe returns to it's normal state after Dark Reign ends

    Who says the "Dark" has to end.... I mean sure Dark Reign has to ensd someday but that dosen't mean Dark Avengers has to...

    The roles could be changed... I mean Mighty and New Avengers are fugitives from the law.....
    Dark Avengers in the future could be too...
    Same as for Dark X-men

    The main reason I wanted to know was because I'm trying to keep my comics organized in a file cabinet. To make things easier, I have a folder that's for Dark Reign one-shots and limited series, rather than a million folders to hold four issues each. So I was trying to see if I should make a Dark X-Men folder, or throw them in the one-shots/limited series folder. But then again, Dark X-Men is technically a Utopia tie-in. Should I have a seperate Utopia folder? But Utopia's really just an even within Dark Reign, so it shouldn't really matter... This is what I get for being organized.  I should just go back to being a slob, lol.

    I think even after Dark Reign ends they could still continue the dark books. They could still write the stories from the villains perspective.

    It seems the second Dark X-Men series is also going to be a mini.  I'm not sure what the point is in all these mini series is... they have the same name and there's only a small gap of a month or two between them.  Why not just make it a maxi series that had back-up solo stories in the back?? :p

    I hope Mystique is written well again, I find it hard to believe that she is willingly working for Norman (even with her nano-machines inside her). I still think it would have made more sense to use Miss Sinister, but hopefully this is good. I suspect it will at least be more interesting than the current Dark X-Men we have.

    Have they actually used Miss Sinister to do... anything??   Dark X-Men does seem a wasted opportunity for her character. 
     
    Personally, I'm not sure why Marvel have hyped this title up last week with Mystique & Omega blanked out of the cover... especially since they've released the full cover just a few days later :p

    @xerox-kitty: Except to flirt with and then get stabbed by Daken, she hasnt done a darn thing...but she cant be dead, she has Mr. Sinisters powers and he never died. If she is dead it would be a waste and she is exceptionally powerful. I cant believe they have wasted the opprotunity to use her.
     
    also I agree on the hype, especially when they revealed Nate was coming back, I thought he would be on the cover lol. Mystique being on the cover just makes me nervous because I hope she is written well.

    (I'm still convinced she's really Sinister ;) 
     
    True.  Mystique has been messed around so much, sometimes I think I'd rather they kill her off than F her up even more :(

    @xerox-kitty: interesting on Mr. Sinister. I could see that, although I honestly hope it isnt, but it could always happen in the future lol.
     
    Agree on Mystique, though I'd rather they just retire her, so that she can be a cranky old grandma for when Rogue has kids lol
     
    They could at least resurrect Copycat if they really want a shape shifter

    LOL!  it's a secret scheme to get the next generation of Wolverine's DNA ;) Maybe s/he'll turn up to collect Nate Grey's DNA again? ;)
     
    Rogue as a mama... Mystique as a Granma!!  Now that's funny!!  She'd probably try to kidnap the kids or something equally ridiculous. 
     
    Awwww, don't.  I'll only go all misty-eyed :)  I want her to be in the Deadpool movie, but they'll probably just recton her into Mystique.  Or write her out of it completely.

    @xerox-kitty: lol thats exactly what I see happening to Copycat if they put her in the movie, just because people who dont read comics will be confused lol.
     
    I like Mystique as a grandma in X-Men the end, but if it happened soon, she probably would try to kidnap them! LOL
     
    Hmm...I hope more little wolverines dont start running around, we already have two extra, although I like them lol
