Okay so Marvel announced DICK at C2E2 and I wanted to find out what was up. So I hit up all my fellow retail friends that are more deeply connected than I am. The word is the huge black eye X-Men Gold #1 gave them made everyone up the chain a little worried so they have slowed down the new title rollout. We probably won't see additional X-Men books announced until SDCC and NYCC.

X-O posted:That sounds more like an assumption on their part than anything else. Because I'm pretty sure nobody really blamed Marvel for what happened. And besides that the reception to the actual books themselves has been really good. Yeah, it sounds like they are over reacting but I can understand them wanting to play it safe.

Skwirl posted:They should bring back Excalibur, but with the subtitle being "Coalition of Chaos." Excal, X-Force and X-Factor were all supposed to be announced at C2E2. The X-Men Gold bullshit gave them cold feet so they're all delayed.

Wheat Loaf posted:Remember when Sunfire got both his legs chopped off by Lady Deathstrike and died, but first got Rogue to take his powers permanently so she could bring Deathstrike to justice, and then for a while Rogue had Sunfire's powers permanently? Didn't Apocalypse restore Sunfire? And he even got his AOA appearance in the deal.

Just prior to the Phoenix coming back he'd cloned himself into an entire underground city of Sinisters.

The return of that character was rumored to be the plot of the RESURREXTION mini series before they retooled it into an event branding.

During War of Kings there was a callback to the clone X-Men in the Imperial Guard mini. Like, two pages or something.

Nearly all my preorders have dropped Blue and Gold from their pulls. Orders are way up on Weapon X and Cable and we sold 60 copies of Astonishing #1 and had to reorder more. So something's working here, just not everything.

I distinctly remember that being addressed in one of the earlier issues of Old Man Logan that Captain America was in. I might be making this up, though I can almost swear it happened. Steve took OML to see it very early in the ongoing.

Agreed so much here though. That book had the strongest launch of all the new x-books and it fell off for us so goddamned hard. Every single preorder has dropped it since Legacy began.

I had an interesting conversation at the store. What race is Laura (Wolverine) portrayed as in the comics? Because it seems she's become something of a hispanic icon since Logan was released but I was under the impression that her comic book mom was Asian? Have they clarified this ever?

The customer who made the claim that started this discussion informs me that she's been a hispanic icon for years. So im just gonna guess that he has no idea what he's talking about.
