Ah, cool. I'm not really familiar with Daken, because the only X-title I read regularly is Young X-Men. It also shows that Luke Cage can't be Iron Patriot, so I'm gonna go with the Robbie Baldwin guess for the time being. Poor Speedball, went from being one of my top five Marvel character to...this.

IMO Bleedball was actually a pretty good character dev. I mean, it makes sense for the guy to be insanely depressed about that stuff. I mean, how would you handle all your best friends getting blown up and being blamed by everyone in America for the deaths of 600 people? even if it wasn't your fault, you'd probably come out of it with some serious issues. it's not Warren Ellis' fault writers who never even read Thunderbolts treated it like a joke.

I would love for Iron Patriot to be Steve Rogers, he's brainwashed whilst inside the suit.
Eventually he breaks his programming and turns the tables on Norman

I can't say I mind, because it's easily my least favorite X-title at the moment. Although there's a rumor that it will be replaced by some other kind of New Mutants title once the X-Infernus mini is done.

What's next, X-Force(My second favorite one) gets cancelled, too?

Probably Noh-Varr or whatever the hell his name is. Can't see him as a "hero", but I can see him being part of a hero team. Maybe like Jolt (or whoever it was) with the original Thunderbolts; too dumb to realize they weren't really heroes. Ares? Yea, he'd fit perfectly with the Dark Avengers. Oh, yeah, I missed one. Apparently The Sentry's included, too. Don't really see how that one works out, but hey, I'm not that big into Sentry anyways. yup, Sentry is Norman's bodyguard according to the solicits for the 1st arc of the new Punisher series which has Frank going after Norman

What's next, X-Force(My second favorite one) gets cancelled, too? No way. The bottom would really have to drop out fast for that to happen. That's the third best-selling X-book behind Uncanny and Legacy. Ooh, that reminds me. The new issue of X-Force is out this week. Going to have to get that tomorrow. FYI: X-Force and Cable will be crossing over starting in, I think, May, with a prologue coming out in March. www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=19158

And since you guys seem to think the Thunderbolts are the new Avengers, where does that leave the Thunderbolts? Also, no talk about Mutant Zero's true identity? Shame.

Out of all the outcomes I imagined, Mary was pretty much the least exciting prospect. Also, Ant-Man as a Thunderbolt? Pretty awesome. But yeah, Madison, I know you like to keep the air of Mystery up, but even you can't deny that that's at the very least Venom doing his best Spidey on the cover.

Oh, that's Ant-Man in the corner, right? I'll go ahead and assume it's the Erin O'Grady version. I think I may be more excited about Thunderbolts than anything else.

Why is Eric O'Grady my favorite Ant-Man ever?: Because with great power comes great opportunity.
