    X-Force

    Team » X-Force appears in 1999 issues.

    When Cable reformed the New Mutants, he made them his soldiers. They became a mutant "black ops" team, assigned to kill not just the enemies of the X-Men, but of all mutantkind. Although this team eventually disbanded, the X-Force moniker has persisted in successive iterations of more and more aggressive X-teams.

    New Lineup?

    At the end of X-Force 26, Wolverine announced that most of the members of X-Force wouldn't be returning to the team. Do you think the lineup will totally change, or do you think that the same characters will be pulled in to deal with Bastion, Stryker, Hodge, etc. since they were on the front lines and won't have to play catch up? And if it is going to change, who do you think will join? 
     
    (I'm not going to lie, I love the current group and I really don't want it to change.)

    I think that the team roster will be Logan, Dom, Warren, Telford, Deadpool, and Cable (If he lives) maybe X-23 she seems to be a fan-favorite of the series if she is off the team I can't imagine her being gone for long.

    The team change was confirmed at the end of X-Force #25. 
    I, too, love the team as it stood, but we know that Warpath, Wolfsbane, X-23 and Elixir will no longer be on the team.  

    • Warpath has made his peace - he avenged Caliban and his desecrated tribe and killed Selene; James has closure and no reason to stay on the team for any longer - he's more than just a killer.
    • Wolfsbane has has a pretty rough time -  she was shot in the knee, tortured by her father, brainwashed into attacking and mutilating Angel, ate her father, battled Frost Giants, fell comatose after becoming pregant with the Asgardian mutant baby that threatened her life etc. Moreover, she's now pregnant.
    • Elixir can no longer control his powers after killing Wither. He must also deal with the psychological effects of killing his old acquaintance
    • X-23 is off the team because Wolverine demanded so, basically - he wants to tear her away from the life of murder so that she can experience a (somewhat) better life. (I doubt Marvel would state this in one issue and then have her in the new line-up. Yes, she was in the Alpha squad in Second Coming #1, but that team was not an X-Force team).
     
    We know that Wolverine, Angel, Domino and Vanisher will remain on the team. Given that there were eight members previously, that leaves four spaces for four new members. I really do hope that Deadpool is not one of them.

    Whom Pix would like to see fill in those 4 spots.

    • Boom Boom. Something X-Force is missing is someone that is a ranged fighter. There's Angel who has his metal fathers, but he's so bloodlusted that he opts for slicing people in half rather than use those. Boom can throw bombs, and has now learned to use her abilities as a stream of explosives. Plus, every team needs a blonde with an impeccable fashion sense.
    • Loa. In addition to having received zero characterization since her first appearance nearly 6 years ago, Alani's power is basically instant death for anyone she uses it one. She phases through objects by, "disabling binding forces." Seeing as how X-Force is practically the kill squad, there's no other team better suited for her.
    • Alchemy. He turns stuff to gold, what else do you need?
    • Northstar. I just needed a fourth member and he's not doing anything.

    i think theyre going to putz around and reform give or take a member for
    Second Coming, after that if the book is still going likely a big shake-up.
    i think its one of those classic team loyalty is checked by questioning themselves
    than they reform with stronger reasons. if i could add anyone it would be Hepzibah.

    I don't think so. Warpath got all his X-Heart wanted in freeing his brother, Wolfsbane has an entire new role to play for the rest of her comic life (not to mention, she only ended up on the team by default as she was a rescue mission gone slightly awry), and Elixir seems too sick to do anything.

    @pixelized: we'll see. thats just my opinion on the subject, not fact sense it hasnt even come out yet. i do know which characters are represented in the Second Coming X-Force ad, and what the solicit itself says. thats all im saying. Wolfsbane is iffy before or after the fact anyways. she wasnt partaking in most of the missions and ran through a side story most of the time, or captured.

    I think a lot of surprising additions will be made to X-Force after Second Coming. I think a lot of the X-men will be changed by some of the events that unfold. I'm like to see Indra, Archangel, Wolverine, Cable, Domino,

    @CATMANEXE:  Let's not forget that the Dark Reign promotions showed Emma crushing Scott's visor, which never happened in the comics, so one can only read so far into those. The solicts for X-Force only say someone is going to die and that X-Force is going on their final mission, not too much to read into, but issue 28 pretty much says there's still going to be a team around.

    @pixelized: 
    I still think that after or at least by the end of SC we'll probably see a new line-up.
    I just dont think during nor immediately. i think the first issue sort of laid all of that out.
    theres an obvious upset being formed due to it coming out in the open. and like i said
    i think that SC will be give or take a member. Cable looks to be running with them.
    i think the final mission part is what heavily indicates this teams roster gets together 
    for one last run. thats all im saying in that. i just dont see a brand new roster by next issue,
    as some on this site seem to be indicating.

    I can see next issue being like the beginning X-Force issues of Necrosha--lots of mutants running around trying to save Hope but not really having a set team in place.    
     
    As for who I'd like to see...If I can't have X-23 then I think maybe Psylocke. She seems to be one of the mutants who isn't all "X-Men don't kill".  Just please no Deadpool.

    My guess? Guy on the right is Fantomex, no doubt. Guy in the air is Warren, and the girl is Psylocke. She's got the sash coming off her hip.  Crouching guy is either Blade or Deadpool. I'm thinking 'Pool. 
     
    Then again....only one person other than Logan is supposed to have a previous connection to X-Force. So, if it's Warren, then it's Blade. If the crouching guy is Deadpool, the guy in the air is probably Nate. Hmmmm.

    A cool team would be Wolverine, Psylocke, Mr. X, Fantomex, and Archangel. That seems like the core of an interesting book.

    I thought that when I noticed that they'd given all the shadows 'mittens' instead of fingers.  After all, regular 4-fingered people wouldn't be much of a give away.  But to be honest, I can't see any realistic reason why Nightcrawler would join X-Force.  Then again, I still can't get over the character change in Bishop :p 
     
    Talking of Bish, the cloaked figure on the far right reminds me of Bish.

    After reading one of the interviews about the New X-Force, it seems that Wolverine will be "co-captain" with someone that he disagrees with. I'm betting the other co-captain will be Nightcrawler. I see this as realistic because Nightcrawler and Cyclops will have a talk and Cyclops will put Nightcrawler on the secret team to alleviate his Nightcrawler's concerns and help keep X-Force a secret from the other X-Men.

    @jamesewelch:
     
    I also think she'll be the other co-captain since they obviously have a big beef with each other about the whole Mat'suo sitch
    My guesses (from most to least obvious) 
    Wolverine  
    Archangel 
    Fantomex 
    Psylocke 
    Vanisher

    The top looks like an obvious choice for Angel, white the katana and the sash is most likely Psylocke, hmmm the figure crouching down could be Nightcrawler, and the last with the cape could be Hope? She's the only one I see wearing a cape and X-Force material I guess. But we'll have to wait.

     idk if its warren up there . i know its a silhouette but the wings look weird , seeing how people mentioned nate grey maybe its him in a coat
    ill say fantomex and psylocke guesses are good 2. the sash tho bothers me bc it looks like it  is connected to the crouching figure on the 
    left which makes me think its nightcrawler . given his recent "exit " i know its hard to believe but with x-force being a black-ops unit 
    a cover up like kurt's death could be just that. i dont wanna belive its blade though im not opposed to it . i love deadpool as much as the next guy
    but i like x-force for its serious take its take no prisoners , kill everything that moves . deadpool was fine on messiah war . but thats it . as for hope
    it seems the right choice (maybe cable doesnt make it out alive?) but i think cyclops will have her by his side with the x-men instead.

    I really really really really hope Cable returns to X-Force. I'd cut off part of my left pinky.
     
    Also, I want Deadpool to be in this, just so I can see more dynamic between the two.

    Remender has stated that they would bringing in heroes they know they could trust (which eliminates people like Mr. X), he's stated that only one of member wold have ties to the x-force/would be a returning member, in my opinion that takes out deadpool as well. I believe the line up to be: 
    Wolverine 
    Angel 
    Elektra (that appears to be a sash not a tail) 
    Fantomex (Though i wouldn't be completely surprised if it was Punisher, the trench coat appears to be fantomex's though) 
    and Blade (him over deadpool because of the fact that they are looking for heroes that have no prior ties to x-force, but he's deadpool ofcourse, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him)

     Uncanny X-Force #1 by Rick Remender and Jerome Opena will launch in October and you can expect to hear Marvel announce the project at San Diego.  
     
    I missed the part about October release date in my initial read of the article.
