I am not following the current X-Men story arc but for some weird reason, I had the feeling that Deadpool and/or Wolverine will be part of the team when I saw a Twitter update that said Marvel will be launching a new Uncanny X-Force book soon.
And my guess was right! The two guys are indeed part of it. Too predictable, Marvel - even for someone not reading the X-books!
Seriously, these two guys are all over lotsa comics these days. Not that I don’t like them or what but doesn’t Marvel have other characters aside from them?
Also part of the team are Psylocke, Archangel and Fanthomex - a guy I’m not too familiar with. At first, I was really like “hey what the heck is Storm Shadow doing here?” Haha! Told ya I’m not a regular reader!
Anyway, Uncanny X-Force #1 comes out this October from the creative team of writer Rick Remender and artist Jerome Opena. Before that, though, these deadly heroes will make their first appearance as a team in X-Men: Second Coming #2.
Now here’s the cover art for Uncanny X-Force #1 by Esad Ribic. Not very catchy for a cover, no? Sorry, Marvel, for being too much of a whiner this time.
