Article Summary

West Coast Avengers sees a new meeting of the Illuminati, taking place in the shadow of the impending One World Under Doom crossover event.
And Emma Frost getting all very isolationist again when it comes to the mutants and the X-Men. You can take the woman out of Krakoa and the Hellfire Club, but you can't etc, etc…
While in recent issues of Storm, we have seen Ororo Monroe become the host for Eternity, over in X-Men #10, we get a very different anticipated response to measures that seem to have been set in play by Jean Grey and the Phoenix if Cyclops should die.
Basically, after seeing the stage version of Doctor Strangelove, Cyclops is a walking Doomsday device. Is it really a good idea for him to be standing around anywhere that a sniper could get him? And shouldn't it be announced to the world more?
Deadpool has X-Force separation syndrome… just remember that X-Force #300 is coming with a story by Deadpool co-creator Fabian Nicieza… so odds are good.
Shinobi Shaw over in Psylocke #3 reveals to Kwannon, a new family with ties to mutant heritage, the Haniver family, and especially Ty Haniver. And may have spread a little love for being a lepidopterist… alongside the butterfly imagery that Psylocke uses.
Meanwhile, the Ultimate version of Psylocke, going by Kanon, makes her presence felt in Ultimate X-Men #11.
So while Maystorm gets a namestorm over in the Ultimate world…
Ty Haniver looks like he may have been quite the inspiration for all manner of animal attack monsters going round the mutant universe right now…
Killer zombie sheep. Hey, if Jeff The Land Shark was such a success, who is to say Marvel doesn't have another upcoming hit on their hands?
