So I was reading CBR (the interwebs source for Comic Book Resources) and I can across an interview with comic book writer Jeff Parker (Agents of Atlas). In it he talks about new projects, included a reboot of the dimensional misplaced Mutant team: The Exiles.
I think this makes like the 23rd time this comic has soft rebooted since its initial run (which granted kinda makes sense since the strength of the series is just seeing what cool f-ed up alternate dimension versions of the regular X-Men a writer can come up with).
Parker is going to launch the book with a cast that includes alternate version of Beast, Scarlet Witch, Forge, Black Panther and Polaris. That is a serious "B"-Squad. Oh, and he is bringing back Blink (because everyone misses Blink). Good Lord we can do better.
Again...

As cool as that team was (eehh...) I can do better. And I want your help.
I need ideas for Mutants from Alternate Dimensions. Now I know what you are going to say. You are going to say... but Stowe, you asked us to do this very same thing way back in SEPT. '07 (
