It was pointed out, on the Comic Book Resources forum, that they are expected to appear in June's Amazing X-Men #8. That wasn't immediately obvious in the solicitation, though the reference to Canada should have caught my eye, really. Here's the teaser:

The mention of the discovery of an old friend being missing is interesting. I wonder if they're going to end up looking for Guardian's ex, Heather (Vindicator) McNeil Hudson. It would be about time...
They seemed to decide that the reunion already happened off-panel when the arc started. :-(

I detest that whole story. The idea of a Wendigo infestation is cool, and they found a (arguably) good way of making that happen (I'm not sure ACCIDENTAL cannibalism counts, but OK), but I don't believe that Wendigo course can be spread through biting.
DeleteWorse than the off-panel Mac/Heather reunion is Aurora's comment later that she "heard" about Northstar wedding. Heard about it? You were there!
Good to see the team again, but their handling is sloppy.
