Marvel May 2008 Solicitations

CBR received advanced May 2008 solicitations from Marvel, including information about X-Men: Divided We Stand #2, whose cover was leaked last week. But it doesn't give us much more information about what the Havok short story will be about, or even who is writing or drawing each of the stories:


X-MEN: DIVIDED WE STAND BOOK 2 (of 2)
Written by MIKE CAREY, C.B. CEBULSKI, DUANE SWIERCZYNSKI & ANDY SCHMIDT
Penciled by SCOTT EATON, DAVID LAFUENTE, FRAZER IRVING & MORE
Cover by BRANDON PETERSON
Exploring the fallout of Messiah CompleX, the second part of this collection of short stories follows some of our favorite mutants as they make their way in a world without the X-Men. And only those who adapt will survive. Featuring Beast, Dark Beast, Havok, Vulcan and Surge!
48 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99


It's likely that Mike Carey is writing the Beast and Dark Beast story as a follow-up to Endangered Species, Loners writer C.B. Cebulski would likely be writing the Surge story since he's good at teen angst, and Duane Swierczynski could be writing Forge (who might show up in Cable). That would leave former X-editor Andy Schmidt to write the Havok and Vulcan story.

Update: It's been confirmed that C.B. Cebulski and David Lafuente are doing the Surge story, but no confirmation on the Havok creative team.
