Because heвЂ™s as much the island as himself. ThatвЂ™s why he always speaks either in first person plural or third person. I wanted him for his skillset (as heвЂ™s tapped into the island), but I realized that someone who is constantly tapped into an organic interface like that is not only going to experience sensory overload, but will no doubt develop a kind of dissociative disorder. IвЂ™ve been building toward that reveal for two years now.ДЄnd Black TomвЂ¦heвЂ™s become a favorite. But I really wanted that moral compass up front to show how far they were straying from their initial course.ДЄs for Colossus, well, this is a story about spycraft and I can finally say that I wanted a mole, a traitor (though heвЂ™s of course more complicated than that). Jean was always going to be too good for X-Force. I think I originally lobbied for Deadpool, but that wasnвЂ™t allowed at first (in part because heвЂ™s only sorta kinda iffily a mutant), but Kid Omega has turned out to be a killer fit. I wanted Sage in the chair at first-working the computers, commanding logistics-but building toward something more ambitious (stay tuned). I knew Domino had to be part of the squad. I knew from the beginning Beast and Wolverine were central to my story. We spread them out on a massive boardroom table. Every notable mutant had their name written on a 3x5 notecard. In January of 2019 I flew out to NYC and at the Marvel mothership met Hickman and CB and Jordan and Gerry and Tini and Leah and Vita. How did you pick which characters made up the initial cast? Did anybody almost make the cut but just miss it? WeвЂ™re in this together, each trying to strenuously tell the best story possible. HeвЂ™s been an integral part of this storytelling process and the X-FORCE aesthetic. We recently road-tripped from LA to Vegas for some comics stuff. Who has become a great pal as well as a great colleague. In the beginning, it was just me and the other writers and the editors, BSing, dreaming up ideas.Д«ut then I was assigned an artist. They are aligned, and they are at odds-and eventually there will be a reckoning. That was our promise, and I think weвЂ™ve made good on it.Д«east is the head of intelligence, Wolverine is the fist of field ops. This would be the dirty book, the poison book, the book that would make people uncomfortable. The black-ops unit would operate in the shadows and wrestle with morally complicated questions. Going back to the beginning of this book, can you remember the original mission statement developed by you and the editorial team? How has that mandate shifted over the past two years? In October of 2018, he gave me a call and said, вЂњI think youвЂ™d kill on X-FORCE.вЂќ I took this comment quite literally (if youвЂ™ve read the book, you know what I mean). He knew Logan was my favorite character, and we were trying to find a way to make it work. I was already working for Marvel at the time-but mostly as the writer of the audio drama, Wolverine: The Long Night (which was then followed by a second season titled The Lost Trail). I read the HOUSE OF X/POWERS OF X bible/pitch (this was long before there was a script), and I thought: what a game-changer. When he was tapped to take over the X-office, we started to talk-offline-about joining forces. We spoke with the scribe about how this unique book came to be, its place in the modern X-Men mythos, and what lies ahead for the operatives of X-Force as well as their adversaries.ДЇirst off, were you approached to be the writer on X-FORCE or was it the other way around with you pitching the X-office?Д«enjamin Percy: I had gotten to know Hickman casually through a top-secret hush-hush private comics email listserv.
