BaBs got 3 full issues to himself in the 2nd series--not your cup of tea?

He's also comically small. That's worth at least a bit, to my mind.

'Adorable'? Is that some sort of code-word for "Ow, damn, stop shooting me! Gah, they're everywhere! KILL THEM WITH FIRE!!"?

Wyvern are anything but adorable...

That's true. He's kind of their mascot. Cute little powerless guy.

That's only if you don't allow yourself to redefine cute as 'oh look, they're murdering people now'

You know, I'd honestly forgotten about that? I had trouble reading the second series, it just didn't have the same feel as the first one and I was missing Apex/War Witch/Horus too much to really get into it, so all I remember reasonably well beyond emotions is the first few issues. I stand corrected!

He's still totally my fave, though. and I guess Manticore is kinda fun too because him shooting Statesman in the chest and States' reaction after was pretty funny


In the room the women come and go
Talking of Michelangelo.

Longbow have my boy Sefu AND are pleasing visually. EDIT: And they hire girls. Manticore is sexist.

I'm grasping at straws, okay.

Only because Psyche would mindwipe him in an instant if he suddenly had flying women with bows hanging around... my god that was my first fanboi...

That picture of Statesman's faceplate, Manticore's bow, and BAB's gauntlets all busted up probably isn't a clue. It's more likely to be misdirection. Like a trailer for the next week's episode of "Lost" that takes a glimpse of a scene or line of dialog out of context to make it seem like there's going to be some huge revelation next week, but turns out to be nothing, that image will either turn out to be not representative of anything at all that happens in the new arc, or else shows something out of context in order to set up the surprise. I think if they were really going to kill off BAB or States or Manti, they wouldn't show a picture of their signature accessories all busted up. That's too heavy-handed and obvious to be foreshadowing. They want it to be a surprise, see? It won't be a surprise if they really are saying "Who Will Die? HINT: To Whom Do These Objects Belong?".

BTW, when I say "misdirection", I don't mean to say the devs are lying. Misdirection to set up a surprise ending is a good story-telling device.

Anyway, for that reason, I don't think it will be any of those three. My guess: it'll be Citadel, for reasons brought up by others in this thread.
