Yeah, but in interviews when writers are questioned about stuff like this they try and dodge the question or hint that they may use the character. Thist time Morrison swore that he would leave Magneto dead for many reasons.

Im sorry I cant find the actual interview, but here is a quote from X-men writer Chuck Austin:

"But look, I agree with Grant in keeping Magneto dead for creative reasons. Not because I think Magneto should stay dead forever, but because Magneto was overused constantly for many years, and that's the main reason he's staying dead. To force people to create, and stop rehashing. People with a lack of imagination kept bringing him back and destroying the specialness of his power and character. I love the new stuff Grant's created much more (Fantomex is brilliant!), and some of the other things that have appeared in other people's books because they haven't had Magneto and Sinister and the Brotherhood to fall back on every other month."

Oh and sorry for the kinda thread hijack that came out of all this.

Off topic: Hey Gnort, didya catch Gnort in the justice league mini. The should kill off gl, bring back jordan and team him up with the G-dog. Then I would start reading it again.

Prophecy

Kyle isn't going to die anytime soon, and Jordan is the new Spectre, there is no way he's going to be a GL again.

Stewart is walking again? Last I heard he was in a wheel chair. I did see some issue with someone telling John it was all in his head, but I never saw the out come of that. I've also heard people say that the GL Corp is going to be reformed, is John a GL again?

Ok, here's the deal. It was all in John's head. He snapped out of it and Kyle gave him a ring. He took over for Kyle when he left Earth because he lost faith in mankind. The issue when John came back was pretty cool. Now about the GL corps: when Kyle was Ion he decided that he should do one great big thing. He re-ignited the power battery on OA which gave birth to a knew council of elders. The elder babies were to be cared for by the last surviving member Ganthat. Kyle then tried to bring back old GL's to re-form the corps, but to no avail. Oh, and Kilowag is back, but as some weird being that's nothing like the original. After all this I stopped reading the comic because they started having random stand-alone stories that I didnt care for.

thanks, I stopped reading GL around when Kyle became Ion. Still I'll most likely pick this book back up later considering Ron Marz is no longer the lead writer . The one thing I don't like is when people make Kyle out to be a mini Hal Jordan.

I just think it's amazing how DC has shuffled their main chars around these last ten years. The craziest thing I think they did though was changing Superman into that electromagnetic Superman for a while.

On a side note, I haven't read the new Hawkman books since they brought him back in JSA but I've heard good things about them. Does anyone know if it's worth picking up?

Give Gardner a ring and turn him back into an a-hole and its all good.

gnort

He still is an a-hole.....just now he's a shape-shifting a-hole

His mutant power is the power to regenerate and grow old very slowly, that is why they picked him for the experiments because they knew hew would heal from all the surguries.

Has anyone been reading the new series? Xmen in Victorian age? My roommate grabbed them and they look pretty good. The artwork is good, and the story arc seems interesting
