Looks like Brubaker is set to replace CC, if the rumor is true.
If so? Good. I will always respect what Claremont brought to the X-titles for many years, but this last run on Uncanny was a disaster. He should have been given the boot long before this.
As for Brubaker? Not sure yet, as I haven't been following Deadly Genesis. Bru is a good writer, but he tends to do better with darker characters. With the right cast, might be this could work. He's a lot better choice for this title than most of the current Marvel staff. Which is not saying a whole lot, I know, but better Brubaker than Greg Pak or Daniel Way...

Yeah, hmm. I really like Bru, and DG is off to a decent start and he's got a good handle on the cast already, but I'm not entirely sure I'd be over the moon about this.
Just give Claremont some satellite title forever, to sell to the 30-40,000 that'll buy him + X regardless.

Bru - good writer, not sure it's a fit... Although that said, he can't possibly be worse than Claremont right now. So... I'll wait and see if any interviews or other things crop up.
I'd like to like the X-Men, but it's not been easy recently...
