Maybe he gets to lead his own rebellion as Quentin did.

Hellion is a comic book character that first appeared in New Mutants #2Is Hellion's shirt choice in UXM an allusion to Quentin Quire?

I don't mind if Hellion turns bad, but I'd prefer it if he did it in his own style. Not wearing the cast offs from Quire the Dork. Hellion is usually more savvy and self-assure that he shouldn't resort to wearing Charlie Brown coloured tank tops.

"Dude, def missed when this came out. So this is for that whole X-Men/Dark Avengers dark reign thing that's about to go down? We know for a fact Hellion survives long enough to get to it?? "

@k2: Here's what Matt Fraction said about Uncanny 513...
Hellion recruits some other disgruntled mutants and outlines his own plan for a more public and more aggressive solution to the mutant problems currently plaguing San Francisco. What made Hellion a good ringleader for this group?
I think it fit his personality and there’s the youth-in-revolt factor. He’s not really one for strategy. He’s okay with getting arrested just as long as a large numbers of people all over the world see it. He’s an angry guy and doesn’t like being told what to do, especially that he can’t go outside because he’s a mutant. Imagine being told you can’t go out after dark because you’ve got brown hair.
So he’s found that not everybody wants to passively resist what’s going on. He’s definitely one of the more headstrong members of the younger X-Men. There’s a reason why he’s wearing the striped Quentin Quire sweater.
The collection of mutants with Hellion are interesting in that they include more notable mutants like Sunspot and Avalanche as well as characters nobody expected to see again -- like Adam X.
Things are getting F’ING EXTREME! [laughs]. It’s a complicated thing that’s going on. It transcends good, bad, and everything else, so it’s all able bodied hands on deck, whether that’s somebody great like Avalanche or Sunspot, or whether its somebody further down the totem pole like Adam X.

"He didn't seem to be wearing it in Utopia part 2, so I guess his 'fashion statement' was over. I'm still disappointment with Matt Fraction's idea of a 'peace protest', where you ignite everything that stands in your way. "

Actually, he was wearing it. It just looks like a darker shade of orange, and his hair is better. He's still being drawn funny (reminds me of X-men Evo Wolverine)--although it's a great improvement over the first issue (Dodson rocks :-)
Also he's kind of talking like a redneck. I didn't notice Julian using words like " I been" and "Ain't" before. And yes, I agree the flaming protest was hardly a peace demonstration. It's a very Julian thing to do but it's odd he called it 'peaceful', I'd expect him to use a more violent description (like he did in Academy X when he was rescuing Wither from the FBI). Few inconsistencies, but at least Hellion's doing what he exists for: to cause trouble, right? Could be worse.
I hope that Utopia 1 and 2 took place over like one day, or else it means he hasn't changed clothes for a while. EEE-ewww!
And that's my nitpicking. Back to writing 'Reaction Rates: the Iodine Clock Reaction''. Don't tell me that doesn't just get your heart racing!

"I hope that Utopia 1 and 2 took place over like one day, or else it means he hasn't changed clothes for a while. EEE-ewww!"LOL! I was thinking the same thing about their regular unstable molecule costumes. They almost never change those... And considering how tight-fitting they are, you don't want to borrow any! Imagine many wedgies poor Psylocke must have...!!

They don't have underwear lines either... /gag and think of how sweaty they must get with all the hard physical activity of fighting...

I think its starting to look like Julian may make his own mutant team. The only problem, is he is going down a similar road that the brotherhood once took. And there really are some almost surprises in there. I'm glad to see that Match is teaming up with them. I think that these characters have been sitting too long and cant wait to see where they take them now. Can anyone say new codenames?
