Naaa… that’s too easy even for me. :)
I wouldn’t bother with this. If you look ahead in the solicitations you’ll that Marvel has pulled a “Quesada”. They start a series or a new writer’s run with an interesting artist and then they remove said artist and replace them with someone less talented and cheaper. They’re doing this with Warren Ellis’ Astonishing X-Men too.
Quesada = Total Ass-Hat
Depends on who the artist is. What about John Byrne? On his website he’s expressed an interest in X-Men Forever. Maybe Marvel could give him a ‘Forever’ type book of his own? Could be cool!!
