Looks like it could be very good! Interesting to hear that the heroes we've been seeing are all humans. I haven't read the .1 though, so are their identities revealed in that?

Yeah. I'm not really up on my x-men villains but I know they were all out spoken anti-mutant characters in 616. I know for a fact Red Prophet is Stryker.

I look forward to seeing where X-temrinated goes in this.

I could care less if he's not involved with Deadpool.

Yeah there comes a point where you start being a bit more drastic. Doesn't even have to kill him, just take off his thumbs or something.

Is Snake Eyes gonna fuck shit up? Cause if so I'll enjoy it.

These are certainly moments in comic books.

I gotta say, when he's not playing Obi Wan to Deadpool I don't really like Cable.

"The writers also implied that the Phoenix Force will be searching for a new host and that this host will have "red hair and green eyes.""

MJ?

@ranvage: I was trying to avoid spoilers but I was talking about how Logan had to come face to face with an alternate version of Jean Grey who loved him. Plus he has at least 4 other books (Two of which have his name in the title) where he can get character development.

Also I think I was giving off the vibe that Deadpool should leave X-force, quite the opposite. I think there should be MORE of him. My problem is I don't think he's being properly utilized as a character, and I think this whole death event won't give the writer time to properly utilize it. Then again as far as I can tell X-force is still taking place before the X-men split so I guess he could stay on for a few more issues after the initial death.

@ranvage: I honestly don't feel those moments are enough. I mean, look at the other members of X-force. Each of them have been faced with problems that require more then just cutting and hitting to overcome, THAT'S character development. Deadpool gets none of that, you could replace him with just about any guy with a sword and get the same results.

Yeah he beat the big bad in the Dethklok arc but it wasn't a major triumph. Now if Deadpool MAX was in-continuity and Wade's dad brutalized his face because he thought he was boning his mom, THAT would make sense. But this was just him being weirded out and came across as weak.

When the fight with Blob came I was actually really excited. "Alright time for Deadpool to shine-oh wait here's Logan to finish him off." I mean, Wade's faced off against Logan and WON, multiple times! Why can't he take down someone like the Blob by himself? As for the most recent moment, that barely counts. It just sort of happens, and the comic almost glosses over it. Most WRITERS forget about the curse of Thanos, what makes them think the majority of readers know it?

It's just so...depressing. I mean I know it's not "Deadpool's X-force" or "X-force starring Deadpool", it's X-force, a team book. But a team book should give ample panel time to ALL the members of the team. Deadpool is such a complex character and this is the perfect book to show why. You read X-Force expecting a darker book. Everything, from the premise to the art sets a mood of dread and filth that lets you know this isn't a normal book. This is the PERFECT book to delve into what makes Deadpool so twisted.

Let's pretend for a minute Suicide Squad was as Gritty as X-Force. Wouldn't you expect them to go into why Harley Quinn is so obsessed with the Joker? I mean, this could've changed the character forever. If we got into what makes Deadpool tick future writers could use it as reference and build better relationships with other characters. Show he's not just a clown or crazy, he's been dealt shit cards for so long and he jokes to try and make it bearable.

The worst part is, I can't even pretend it's a matter of waiting. I mean, before I could just say "Well, they'll get to him after the other characters get their arcs" but because of this the clock is ticking way to fast for that to come to fruition.
