Snikt! related series written by Paul Cornell

Who do you guys think it is? Wolverine? Daken? Probably not X-23 since she's on Avengers Arena.

Marvel's February solicitations just hit, but that doesn't mean there's no room for more Marvel NOW! teasers. iFanboy has a teaser today that continues Marvel's one-word tease theme, and that word is a real head-scratcher: "SNIKT."

Hmm, what characters could that mean? Well, obviously it's one of the Wolverine family, meaning Wolverine, X-23, or Daken. All three would be interesting; Wolverine has a newly-relaunched ongoing in January under Frank Cho. X-23 is in Avengers Arena, and Daken is a full-on villain, leading his own Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Meanwhile, Wolverine and the X-Men is launching a new major storyarc in February with creative team Jason Aaron and Ramon Perez.

The creative team will certainly raise some eyebrows as well. Paul Cornell and Alan Davis. Cornell's big two career started at Marvel Comics where he had the critically acclaimed Captain Britain and MI-13 before jumping over to DC Comics, writing Action Comics, Knight and Squire, and helping with the New 52 relaunch with Stormwatch and Demon Knights, two books he has left, and has announced leaving, respectively. Davis of course is one of those living legends at Marvel, having drawn virtually every Marvel character and virtually every major title there over his years of service.

Hmm, interesting indeed... I'm actually not going to be picking up the Wolverine series in January, but I'll almost definitely pick this one up. I mean with Cornell and Davis?! Why wouldn't I?! Of course I'd love to see a Daken series(provided he survives the current X-Force storyline), especially based on Cornell's work with Lex Luthor in Action. But if I had to bet, I'd wager this is another Wolvie series. Whatever it is though, that's another add to my pull list. Which means I'll be lopping off another DC title...

I'm picking up the Wolvie series but I would hope this isn't another one, I know he, Deadpool and Spidey have to have like six books each but I think Daken deserves another shot, especially with Cornell at the reins, like you said, he did an awesome job with Luthor.

I'm passing on the Wolvie series because I'm not paying $4 for it! Plain and simple! If it was a $3 comic, boom, I'm there. But not for that extra $1. But for this series? Yeah, I'd be willing to pay $4(although I'd much rather $3...). And if it is a Daken series, written by a GOOD writer? I'd be willing to pay more than that!

[JT]

Oh yeah, I forgot you were such a tightwad

Men.. I'm so sad that cornell is leaving Demon Knights I was enjoying that book a lot.. and the worst is that he is not doing anything else at DC.. So posibly another Marvel book to my list.
