I'm sure everyone heard that the line up of Uncanny X-Force is changing The line -up will consist of Psylocke, Storm, Puck and Spiral and some other characters will join the team as well. One of the major viilians they encounter is Bishop and it looks like they will encounter Cable and the X-Force too.

Here is a link on the topic

Who looking forward to this title ? Who would you like to see join this team ?

Psylocke is leader of a team, the series will focus on her and Storm will have a major part to play in it too.

I'll give it a shot even if I'm not big on Storm on X-Force. I'm hoping for Sage to come into this since she and Bishop have history "If Forge can come back so can she".

I'm hoping Shard will return soon.

I'll give it a shot. I was real impressed by the first series of the Uncanny X-force. I know this is a different creative team as well as line up. I'm not as enthused about this line up as I was about the first series, but I'm hoping they will change my mind. I'm interested in the "3" other member that will be added to the group. Maybe they have some great choices to add that will round out the team. I'm real interested in what they may have in store for a kind of cross over with the Cable and the X-force series. That should be real interesting to see what they can come up with. I think i'm more excited about Cable and the X-force series over this one, but mainly it's because it has my boy Colossus on it. I will give them both a chance and lets see what they do with it.

I like the premise and everything behind it...but this should NOT be called Uncanny X-Force. In all honesty, that was Remender's.

QFT.

@time: Once again... nice title!

Very strange lineup so far, really not getting Psylocke as the leader of anything at this point, will have to read and see

The part that bugs me the most is why have Storm on the roster?

So there's two X-Force's...

Cool to see Bishop back tho.

Sales wise I can see why you would include her, but creatively I agree it's a sketchy choice.

The only way I can see her on the team that makes sense is if she is there to make sure X-Force stays reigned in and provide oversight to make sure any bodycount is justified. But, if that is so, why in the hell would she be a member and not a team leader? I really do not see any way she takes orders from Betsy that makes much sense.

I give Marvel credit for taking chances and making some significant changes with Marvel Now, but so far the majority of them do not look for the better.

@Brazen_Intellect: From one of the interviews I read, Humphries did say that they will keep X-Force as well...X-Force. So there will be blood, it will be edgy still. I know Storm has killed before but she isn't comparable to the likes of Wolverine or Psylocke when it comes to it and she is so against X-Force in the first place. Idk how it is gonna work really. I can understand a leader position would be better so she can keep control but being under Betsy I just see her complaining at them constantly and butting heads with her yet she will remain on the team. Idk, I just see it as possible character mutilation that will make her like Beast or she is just gonna be a background nag that fights every now and then.

Character Assassination = Marvel Now!

Why is Storm here? And shouldn't she be the leader instead? Not that I prefer Storm over Psylocke (which I don't, Psylocke is great!) but I think that makes better sense.

Agreed totally.

I mean, Scott is Gone, Storm is THE next leader sans Scott and they are doing this? Something is odd here.

Don't even get me started. I am hoping for the best, but I am honestly p!ssed at Marvel for this. In the Xperts interview they went on record saying Storm is the moral compass of the team and opposes X-Force even more so than Beast. Now they have her on a kill squad and haven't explained in anyway shape or form as to why.

I don't like the Psylocke X-Force,Cable's one is cooler.

i''ll only get this because storm & bishop are in the book. don't care for cable 's x-force.

@blood1991 what history do sage and bishop have?

The two were paired as partners all throughout Xtreme X-Men posing as FBI I do believe.

To all of you whom are consistently questioning Ororo's being there, regardless of her constantly denouncing the very idea of X-Force and preemptive killing, please refer to each and every-single one of Humphries' interview regarding her position and the team's purpose. Like he said, the woman has layers. It'd be extremely silly for you all to be under the impression that she is just the caring, motherly, self-sanctioned Goddess...everyone's got a dark side.

@AgeofHurricane: Bishop better not try reasoning with any babies this time around. Why must he be a bad guy? I used to love this guy.

I loved him and still love him. The guy's great. And he was right, too. Had he actually succeeded in murdering Hope Summers, we would have been the spared the travesty that is AvX.

But on a more serious note, it's sad how Marvel had to turn one of their (imo) greatest minority characters into an out of control zealot.

I'm looking forwad to Cable's X-Force, but honestly I can't bring myself to look forward to this as well. It just seems to me that a writer fanboy took a bunch of characters and put them in on title. I'm fine with Betsy and Spiral, Puck could be interesting as well, but Storm in a team with the teaser 'Killer' is just wrong. She was always one of the X-Men who are strongly against Logan's Strike team. I don't thing she would support a similar team and even be a member of it.

@AgeofHurricane: Yes, I won't deny that she has 'layers'. The opposite, I'm a huge fan of the time she had a mohawk or the issue where she literally ripped out Marrows heart. I know Storm isn't above killing, but she still views it as a last resort. She wouldn't go around and kill all potential threats precautionally like the uncanny X-Force does.

@Jeanniebird: Well, i suppose we'll just have to wait and see why she even considers membership.

so it's Psylocke's team vs Cable's team correct?

I agree with him getting rid of Hope at this point. What a waste.

Let's see where this goes.

Not  looking forward to Psylocke's team but I'm really interested in Cable's team. I'm so glad they are bringing Bishop back as Cable's enemy. I found that side of Bishop really interesting.

He's an enemy for the Uncanny team, not Cable's, I thought?

That is what I thought too. Psylocke's random squad is supposed to be hunting him down.

@Dernman: Please do. Maybe Psylocke's team fails and Cable's team goes after him.

@Dernman: Please do. Maybe Psylocke's team fails and Cable's team goes after him.

Marvel.com: The villain for the first arc is Bishop, who has been going through a rough patch since his days on the X-Men. Does Psylocke see him as someone she needs to stop or as someone she needs to save?

Sam Humphries: That question is going to be largely immaterial as they try to dodge his bullets.

 

Marvel.com: What about Storm's relationship with Bishop? Reunited and it feels so good?

Sam Humphries: Bishop is the man she remembers, but not the man she remembers. He was abandoned in the year 6300 AD. The dude has been alone, thousands of years in the future. A man goes through a lot of changes trying to get from 6300 AD to the present day. It is going to be an ugly reunion all around.

@Dernman: Thanks for clearing that up.

I am fine with Psylocke as a team leader. What I am wondering aside from th team make up which I am unsure of is how Bishop is going to make a villian here. He went off the rails when he thought killing Hope would prevent his bad future from happening and did some truely horrible thngs, like shooting Xavier in the head or destroying entire continents to prevent from using the entire world to hid by trapping Cable and Hope trapped in North America. What I am wondering is will he still be in kill Hope mode or will be be reasonable or at least understandable. I do want there to be an eventual meeting between Cable in Bishop cause they did not part on the best of terms previously.

@AgeofHurricane: Yeah, I guess you're right. I just hope there is a good reason, which drastically changes my opinion. I want this book to be good, I really do. I enjoyed Remenders run so much, it deserves a good continuation.

As do i, but i feel differently about Uncanny's continuation. Remender set the bar so damn high that it shouldn't be continued. This should be another title and direction entirely. But like i said, we'll need to wait and see.

My thoughts:

• Why is Storm on the roster?
• If Storm is on the roster, why isn't she team leader?
• Which version of Bishop are we getting here? Is he crazy or is he good Bishop?
• Did we really need two X-Force books? I would argue that we did not.

Agree with you both. That said Bishop is the only reason I'm even remotely interested in this title.

Is there a "Bishop was right" image?

Man I would've liked spiral with cable and colossus team. Matching metal arms!!

Look what I found

it doesnt really say Psylocke is the leader of X force, it says that the book will center around her but its possible that Storm still be the leader with Psylocke the main character, at least i could see it happening, i just have a hard time seeing Storm not be the leader on this team

and Bishop is by far one of my favorite characters i am very interested in his return

I'm glad to see Spiral back but that looks like alternate reality Storm and I agree that I don't Psylocke being the leader of any team.

@PhoenixoftheTides: It's not an alt reality Storm, reason being, Humphries states that something happens between Storm and Psylocke in AvX to lead into this...

Ouuu. Mohawk storm! Fun to have her back, I was getting tired of the Queen of Wakanda.

I like Storm's and Psylocke's new looks/costumes, but I don't like the new team.

I'm assuming since Fantomex is dead, the female Fantomex that is on the cover is EVA
