Original Article.

The link above leads to a rundown of what was discussed at today's X-Men panel at Wizard World: LA. Features info on EVERYTHING X in the upcoming year. Interesting notes:

A fan's comment about �devolving Beast back to when he was cool� resulted in a vote of what the best Beast was. Blue beast won overwhelmingly, but Grant Morrison's �Cat Beast� was voted for by the majority of the creators in the room (and one CBR correspondent). The results from a similar vote at the New York Comic Con have �forced� the editors and creators to think about the issue, though.

The power Wanda took away from the mutants has affected 2 people. One in �X-Men: Deadly Genesis,� and one in �New Avengers.�

Professor X and Magneto, for those unaware.

There is no chance that the de-powered mutants from �House of M� will get their powers back.

Unless, of course...it means better sales.

Regarding the specificity of 198 mutants left, Joe said, �198 just sounded really cool.� Also, 198 refers only to the mutants accounted for. There are probably around 300-350 total. There is also a list of the 198 at Marvel's office, with �a few spots open� for new characters.
