Today on the Neil Gaiman channel, really bad X-men fan fiction! Tell me I'm not the only one who read it that way.

"And then John eats the magic muffin and turns into a zebra. Meanwhile, in another part of the forest, Chuck and Eric are having an existential crisis brought about by Eric's feelings of self-loathing, which gets really bad when Eric's clonal sister, Erica, is appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer..."

Okay, so probably not what he meant. But this is the guy who wrote Smeagol/Gollum for kicks and did a slash reading of a book he wrote the introduction to, so you never know.

I'm really glad Eric doesn't have a clone sister. ... Yet.

In over thirty years of comics canon, he hasn't had a single one? Pff.

Oh, and considering the adorable Neil G. wrote 1602, I'm sure the bad fanfic was deliberate.*g*

I'd like to *think* so, as it's so much more entertaining in my head.

Heh, yeah. It's really only a matter of time, isn't it. (I was actually nodding along for a moment before I remembered that that storyline belonged to Charles.)
