X-Force revamp to The X-Statix (possible spoilers)

I know it's probably old news to some but there for a while it was dismissed as pure rumor and speculation. Comics Continuum seems to indicate they're going ahead with the name revamp. The details and the new cover, which breaks the news on who gets the axe, can be found here

I kinda dig the new name but now we won't get the flood of whiney fanboy letters bitching and moaning that their Baywatch X-Force has been hijacked. Which was worth half the price, in my opinion.

Not entirely convinced that's the cover they'll use for that issue. There have been several covers similar to that w/ different characters missing. Allred has said that he does cover mock-ups all the time, and just look at all the extra stuff that was in the back of the x-force tpb. They're big on the obfuscation over there. I wouldn't count edie out just yet.

Comicon's story on the X-Statix change is here. Apparently, there are three official covers circulating. Which one's the real one? It's a mystery, folks!

As long as they leave Doop alone, I'm fine. But if they kill that floating green potato, oh there'll be hell to pay ::shakes fist angrily in his rocking chair::

I think Tike will die. Whatever happened to the Venus DeMilo character? Will she be in X-Statix?
