Halfway through making this, I thought to myself “huh, I might be working out some feelings I have about meetings.”

AIPT: Alright, cover your ears, Daken fans (or eyes, I guess)… TD Mollusk (@sirbriang2) said, let’s face facts: Daken is the worst. Just the worst. What about his character appeals to you? Aside from him being horny.

Leah: He’s not the worst! I totally disagree with that. And “horny” is such a reductive view of his thot crimes. He’s a really layered, complex character–totally loyal to his sisters, dry wit, deeply charismatic, but has enough of a chaotic neutral streak in him to keep things spicy. Not to mention he’s an investigative powerhouse–his pheromone ability can relax killers into confessions, he can track a subject by scent while masking his own, heightened senses, can move with preternatural inaudibility, etc. He’s OP as a stealth agent. I’m going to make you love Daken so hard that we’ll revisit this question with laughter in a few months.

- Leah Williams on X-Men Monday

[earlier in the interview she also said: I adopt the same approach for everyone’s relative trauma, which is: we carry it forward together. I’m not interested in belaboring an individual cast member’s internal strife; I’m interested in their healing. I am deeply committed to how Krakoans build community to support each other instead of ostracising any one mutant for being different, so I’m far more invested in exploring the ways they’re able to thrive in an adaptive environment than I’m invested in story-mining the traumatic pasts of Prodigy, Rachel, Aurora, Jean-Paul, Polaris, Daken, etc. It is a part of who they are, of course, but no one is alone with that burden. We carry it forward together.]

X-Men Monday (March 11th)

Teaser art with Nightcrawler and Meggan:

Jordan D. White’s favorite love triangle: Captain Britain/Meggan/Nightcrawler:

“Best one was definitely Captain Britain, Meggan and Nightcrawler, back in Excalibur. Nightcrawler and Meggan are both so charming and likable that even though she and Brian were in a relationship for so long… you just could not fault them for their attraction. Meanwhile, Brian was going through stuff and acting like a jerk, so it really looked like he might lose her. Man, that book was great. That said, at this point, Meggan and Brian are married with a daughter, so I can’t see the triangle popping back up right now.”

We’re not going to get an Excalibur relaunch:

Jordan: “I think it would be great. That said, it’s definitely a thing that is tricky. What was it that made Excalibur Excalibur? Is it just putting those five characters together on a team? Is it just that they were in England? Is it the tone? Does it have to be all three? It’s something I have thought about for literally years. The thing is… getting the old band back together is not as easy as it sounds, as the characters have all grown apart and gone different directions and I would hate to sledgehammer them back into a book together in a way that read as just nostalgia. If the O5 Excaliburians are gonna get back together, I would want it to make sense.”
