No, because in typical Marvel fashion, I fully expect one of those three to be on the X-Men’s side by the end of this, and vise versa from those core X-Men who aren’t already Avengers.

Wolverine will probably bounce around like he’s stuck in a pinball machine, but in the end still be in too many books while writers find even more excuses to bring up Jean Grey.

I’ve always been a Marvel fan, but it feels like the House of Ideas has been running on fumes for some time now, particularly with the big events like this. (Or is it not really a big crossover event? I can never tell with Marvel people talking out both sides of their mouths).

Two sides having very good points in a conflict? Isn’t every team up ‘like Civil War’ then? The recent Daredevil / Spiderman /Black Cat books were soooo like Civil War….they fought to see who bangs Black Cat!!

How is that the case? If one or two members of either team change sides, does that change the rest of the group so much so that they lose their identity? Are Cap, Thor, Iron Man avengers only so long until Beast joins them? Then they become something else? By that logic, every team that has ever had a roster change should change their name each time someone joins, or even teams up with them. What a silly thing to nit-pick over.

Which would mean that the title, Avengers vs. X-Men, might not be very accurate for long. Or not very accurate in the first place.

Course, this whole thing just sounds more and more like Civil War 2 (remove registration, insert Phoenix).

That’s not what they said. If that’s what they were saying, they would have said that. They were saying some characters allegiances might change during this conflict. Which is part of the fun. Or not, I guess, if you’re looking to troll everything that comes out of the Marvel editors mouths, misquote it, and use it to bitch.
