No end in sight for the Starjammers

Unfortunately, today’s X-Position with X-Editors Nick Lowe, Axel Alonso and John Barber didn’t give any updates on when the Vulcan saga might finally, at long last, be coming to an end.

And speaking of Polaris, John Crowley (along with several other fans) wrote to me with questions about the status of her and her associates.

Will we be seeing a resolution to the Shi’ar civil war by the end of the year? I thought I had read earlier that “Emperor Vulcan” was supposed to be the final act of the whole story with the Summers (at least for a while). What changed? And when will we see what happens with the Starjammers, Havok, Polaris, and Rachel?

LOWE: As the person who wrote the solicit text for “Emperor Vulcan” and did a lot of interviews about it, I don’t remember reading or saying that it was the final act of the Summers’ story. We always saw it as a middle chapter. As for when you’ll see them again, you’ll just have to wait and see.

How disappointing. I’m tired of waiting for this to be over. I wish they would just give us some sort of time frame for when this is ending.


Also, new Cable writer Duane Swierczynski will be answering questions in next week’s X-Position. Rachel fans need to send in questions (you can find the email address and instructions at the bottom of this page).

Although with Rachel stuck in the never-ending space story, it’s doubtful he’ll be able to answer questions about Rachel appearing in Cable, but it’d be nice if a question related to Rachel or the Askani was asked, but hopefully none of the monotonous "is the baby Rachel" questions.
