Ok, the solicits for Messiah CompleX have started to come in. I'm going to keep this thread updated with them as more of them appear, since I don't know which of them will have Remy in. It also appears that there are going to be variant covers for all of the issues of the crossover, so hopefully we'll see Remy on some of those.
EDIT 1: Now included are the solicits for December, which include two resource books for the crossover.

Well, none of these have come out yet, so you've got a chance to catch up. _________________ And I sit, endlessly watching the people as they walk below me, knowing that I will never walk among them, knowing I will never live as they have lived and loving them for it.
I esp look forward to X-Men 205, the REMATCH! WOW! And Sinny is in the house? COOL! _________________ *

Sinny shows up in #202, and he's got a Cerebro unit, which is how he knows where everyone is. _________________ And I sit, endlessly watching the people as they walk below me, knowing that I will never walk among them, knowing I will never live as they have lived and loving them for it.
Its so nice to see Sinny as the BIG BAD instead of Magneto or Apoc for a change! _________________ *

Yeah, it's nice to see them actually using Sinny as a big bad for once, instead of a kinda-bad-maybe-ish type character. He's evil. He made a deal with the devil effectively, and did it more than willingly. It's so good to see them using that. _________________ And I sit, endlessly watching the people as they walk below me, knowing that I will never walk among them, knowing I will never live as they have lived and loving them for it.
Last week in November as far as I'm aware GG. X-Men seems to come out in the last week of each month.
I'll update it when I've got exact dates. _________________ And I sit, endlessly watching the people as they walk below me, knowing that I will never walk among them, knowing I will never live as they have lived and loving them for it.
EDIT 1: Now included are the solicits for December, which include two resource books for the crossover. _________________ And I sit, endlessly watching the people as they walk below me, knowing that I will never walk among them, knowing I will never live as they have lived and loving them for it.

Interestingly, it appears that at least one X-Man dies.
Also, there are going to be varient covers for all of the issues involved in the crossover (which smells of a marketing ploy to me) _________________ And I sit, endlessly watching the people as they walk below me, knowing that I will never walk among them, knowing I will never live as they have lived and loving them for it.
