X - Men: Die by The Sword

[The Boy Sanga]

Anyone read this yet? Not really X-Men (but their 'offshoot' comics).

Forgot it was coming out so I missed issue 1 (hopefully another'll be coming in store so I'll be able to sort that one), but what's everyone's views on it?

Number 2 ends really well - the return of two of my favourite vilains so I can't wait till number 3!

Also, apparently its the next level of New Excalibur as their own title recently ended...hopefully not the end of the Cap (Britain) though...

Issue 1 explained the Otherworld background for the story, but the 616 Earth part was underdeveloped.

From Die by the Sword comes New Exiles by Claremont, but I think (wich means guess, wich means not officially stated anywhere as far as I know) it will have characters from the New Excalibur book, like Captain Britain and a returning Nocturne. Perhaps Dazzler, to reunite her with the amnesic Longshot or give her revenge against Mojo.

And I really hope the next Excalibur continues the Wisdom mini by Cornell. I miss John the Skrull and Tink.

hopefully not the end of the Cap (Britain) though...

Something in Marvel about shooting Captains... Bad time for Mar-Vell to return (and hasn't Captain Rectitude suffered enough already?). Good luck for Monica Rambeau.

Yeah it sounds reasonable - with the Exiles and Excalibur having links (Psylocke - Captain Britain, Longshot - Dazzler etc) and don't the exiles go about repairing the multi-verse (something Captain Britain did in his early years I think). I was hoping for the return of solo Captain Britain (perhaps with Meggan returning too).

But Jaspers and an army of Furies....!!! That'll be interesting to read
