Today, Marvel has released another promo. Get ready for this one:
That's right, an X-Men will be dying. Could this "one" be one of the three in the "Who Will Lead?" image? Could this mean that either Cyclops, Emma or Magneto might be dying? If so, we can assume that it's not Scott since he's being shown standing over an open grave. With that look of anger on his face, we could assume it's Emma. I'm not sure how upset he'd be over Magneto dying. Or perhaps Marvel is simply teasing/fooling us?
X-Men: Second Coming will be on sale on March 31 for $3.99. Adi Granov will provide the cover.
Interestesting stuff, if it were to be Emma i do hope they don't turn her into the new 'Jean Grey of deaths' wich would be just a really unoriginal and just lame thing to do, Odds on who elce it could be? im not sure but im thinking Charles
Could it be Cyc? He has shown up in the future though.
I hope its emma. Never ban a fan.
But who knows marvel will kill them and bring them back, kill them and bring them back, kill them and bring them back and oh, they will probably kill them again.
It actually could be Cable… but I guess Cyclops' emo self would be that deeply and personally depressed about any x-person's death to be honest. I've gotta say I actually like Cyclops…… just not the way Fraction writes him. Joss Whedon made him remarkably likeable! I think if they keep Cyclops, which I hope they do and think they will, that Marvel should hire a decent writer for one of their flagship comics at least.
I'm going to hedge my bets and guess: Cable or Iceman… I dunno, maybe he'll play a huge heroic part with these superduperpowers we keep being promised and never delivered?
If it's Emma, I'm going to be f*****ing pissed off. Hopefully none of the original members( excepted Prof. X he can die) . Also somewhere I read, that one of the New Mutants is going to die during the Second Coming event.
If a mutant is ACTUALLY going to die, I'm kinda hoping it'd be Magneto. What if the kill shot is meant for Prof X, but Magneto sacrifices himself? Remember when Magneto first arrived on Utopia, Xavier was quite hostile towards him....actually, that's pretty much been their relationship for years. It'd bring things full circle. Starting as friends, and ending as friends.
Or, I guess, on the flip side, Xavier dies and we get an AoA type scenerio where Magneto takes Xavier's place.
Isn't everyone doing a bit of projecting? How can you tell he's grieving from that shot. He's just standing over a grave. Cover do tend to exaggerate quite a bit. More so when it comes to these event images.
Remember that Hope is the Mutant Messiah. Things hardly ever seem to end well for Messiahs.
Fraction would have to be one sadistic nut case if he first makes it seem like Emma has betrayed, then traps her in diamond for for a while, then kills her.
I think that so many X-Men have died and come back down the road that people just laugh at it. If anything, these "deaths" are more retiring the character for a while to tell new stories. Cyclops has been at it for a while and I think his story has been told. Emma being dead would suck, she is still very interesting. I could understand Cable dying though, he seems the more likely considering how long he has been around and is from the future, so bringing him back isn't that hard. If anything we could possibly get a new "younger" Cable, not Nate Gray, coming back in time. I think that would be interesting and would be a different twist in the story of Cable.
Big deal. If its one of the main characters they'll jus comeback from the dead later and if its a minor one it wouldn't make a difference. I love Marvel comics but this somebody going to die never hooks me, because nobody of importance stays dead. When the killed Captian America I couldn't care less because I knew he'll be back leading the Avengers someday. These death story lines are really unoriginal usless Marvel and DC starts sticking to the out comes.
Death means nothing in comics anymore. Quentin Beck, Kraven the Hunter, Bucky, Jason Todd and of course Norman Osborn have proven the old rules are no longer applicable.
I hope Cyclops dies I mean how would that affect the X-men losing one of the originals but hey they would just probably bring him back like they do with all thee other characters.
Maybe Scott is thinking that someone will take his place as leader of the X-Men? Magneto sacrificing himself for mutants...I could see that one. Emma...well...we'll see. Cable?...Speculations, speculations...
I would think that maybe Hope would take over on the Cable series. Another idea is that maybe there will be a "new" Cable that is actually the son of Scott and Emma. How would their son be different and what powers would he have?
