Chris Yost Talks X-Force and The Confession
Dark X-Men: The Confession hits stands this September, so Newsarama interviewed Chris Yost primarily on an “X-Forced Confession.” Emma Frost is mentioned a few times regarding The Confession.
NRAMA: Let’s change gears and talk about Dark X-Men: The Confession for a little bit; how does Emma’s involvement with The Cabal stand up to Scott’s formation of X-Force? Will the two lovers put these cards on the table during this new project?
YOST: This is it. All secrets revealed. The question is, how do they react?
NRAMA: Do you think Cyclops could kick Namor’s ass? Do you think Namor feels bad about hitting on Emma Frost for one second? Or is this going to be a case of Scott Summers falling short as a beta-male to Namor’s alpha-dog persona?
YOST: Yeah, I think Cyclops could take Namor, given the right scenario. Cyclops is a master tactician and incredibly powerful… it’d be tough, but sure. No, Namor would never feel bad about hitting on Emma Frost. He doesn’t feel bad for hitting on Sue Richards. And if you think Cyclops falls short, you’d radically underestimated him. If Namor hears the confession Cyclops gives, he’d be pretty impressed.
NRAMA: Is Emma just going through the motions with Scott at this point? Has their relationship been on the downward spiral for a while now?
YOST: There’s been a lot of couch sleeping lately. Secrets kept between two people can never help a relationship… they can only destroy it. This has been a long time coming.
NRAMA: Will there be a clear cut division in the X-Men via The Dark X-Men and X-Force in the near future?
YOST: The end of Utopia X is a game changer. Matt Fraction has done an incredible thing. And yes, there will be divisions… X-Force cannot exist in the open.

This gives me slightly mixed signals. For one they talk about how Namor would be impressed with Scott’s confession. That sounds rather positive for the relationship.
Secrets can damage a relationship, but secrets admitted or ‘confessed’ to can often bring a couple closer. Both have done bad things, but with good intentions.
Then there is the comment about Utopia being a ‘game changer’(a term I hate). He talks about divisions between the X-Men and Dark X-Men. With Osborn defeated by the X-Men, what would be the purpose of a Dark X-Men team? They were a team created by Osborn. Though I’m sure Mystique wants to turn on Osborn and make him pay. I just can’t see why the team would continue to exist post-Utopia unless they were working for Osborn.
This whole ‘Black Queen’ thing needs to end quickly.
