Hey guys! I'm back! Once again, no Epilogue this week, but I do quite a few updates for the story. I assure you, Epilogue(s) will return next week during the Season Finale. Speaking of which...

1) Because we reached 50 reviews (the day) before Part I of the Season Finale, the sneak peek to the new Kate Bishop/Young Avengers series Bishop will be published during the Season Finale next week. Keep an eye out for that.

2) Speaking of Bishop, I have successfully completed writing the pilot episode. It clocks in at 13,000 words! Wow! I actually cut a lot out (mostly descriptive scenes, but several including Kate's supporting cast and...maybe some enemies?), but may add those back in when I go back through and edit, because I'm working on boosting my writing skills as well as the fact that most episodes next Season will be over 10,000 long every episode!

3) So what is going on with #XMENSG? I've started work on Season 2. I'm (roughly) halfway through Episode One. I published the title card for that on my Twitter, go check that out! As mentioned above, episodes are going to be much longer. Episode One is already 7,500 words and not even halfway through! I actually have three different openings to the season planned out. I know for a fact that one won't be used because it takes away from shock value. I'm pretty solid on which one I'm going to use, though.

4) I've written the final scene for Season 2 already. I know where I'm going. I know what happens at the end. I know how this carries over to the first three or four episodes for Season 3. I'm remaining mostly flexible for the Season. I can change plots if I need/want to without it being too big of a deal. I have several "big bads" for Season 2 planned (not like Season 1 where we all knew the Sentinels and Kelly were the main bad guys), but there's one in particular who serves as the main bad guy. The character is-check that information out on Twitter later this month! Basic point is, I have Season 2 planned out, I know where we end, and it's literally unthinkable. No one else does this. (Excepting British shows...they're nuts!)

5) So what about those deleted scenes and goodies from Season 1? I'll be publishing those over the summer to keep you guys interested. Interspaced with these will be trailers for both Bishop and X-Men. The first trailer for Bishop can be expected (obviously) next week. The official trailers for both X-Men: Standing Guard Season 2 and Bishop Season 1 can be expected...July 14. (That's the only freebie date I give.) I'll post any details about Bishop and X-Men on this story, and even the first episode of both, but by then I expect you'll have subscribed to the other stories.

6) Season Finale description is out on my profile!

7) Last update, I promise. Because there will be an eight-month time jump between Season 1 and Season 2, there's plenty of time to recruit new mutants. Which mutants do you want to see? Let me know in a review, or hit me with a PM (preferably a Review, I'll PM you if I need more details). Almost any mutant is on the table and some old, familiar faces will be returning in Season 2...even some you didn't expect!

In conclusion, things are going well. Bishop and X-Men Season 2 are going well. Once again, I'll be publishing the Bishop pilot early, so follow me on Twitter for that release date. Leave a review, guys. They are the only way for me to know if my series is being enjoyed. Thank you for all of your support so far, keep it coming, let's see if we can't break 60 reviews before Season 2! Come back Saturday for the Author's Review, Sunday for an exclusive look at the Season Finale, and Tuesday for one final recap of the entire season of X-Men: Standing Guard and see how everything has been leading up to this!
