[QUOTE=Beetle;4857553]I can't believe Melody Guthrie was the first mutant to be repowered this way
I know they don't have a lot of other choices left but still, wow. When's Sofia signing up?[/QUOTE]
I would've [I]loved[/I] that. I really honestly don't remember Melody from anything. Having Sofia be the first would have been far more preferable.

To be fair, people killed by those clouds couldn't be ressurected.

Am beginning to think the church of concordance in life 9 was an answer to the Krakoans religion we are still yet to see. Or the Krakoans themselves are pre-empting the machines.The similarities are uncanny.

Giant Sized got all the hype, but this was THE issue of the week, and a strong candidate for best of Dawn of X so far. I particularly love that it addresses many of the questions people have about resurrections, but without providing a clear answer. Also good to have Scott and Kurt have a long talk, because it's been a while.

My guess is that they wanted to show the Guthrie element of the storyline, so it worked. And being that everyone is so happy to see Jay I'm guessing that worked. But yeah, it could have been Sofia in that same role.

I think this might have been my favorite issue. Been waiting for an issue like this.

Kurt’s dialogue was spot on, both for being in character and for being the voice of the fans.
And, yes, this was the comic of the week, by a country mile, there was three issues worth of ideas in there.

I think the will concept is like a human 'last will and testament'
I think because they are now immortal it is more binding,you expect that you 'bequeath' your body ,memories and powers to only yourself.I think it helps in defining personality otherwise Krakoa would at worst be a state where you'd have folks fighting over powers like it's money or have some weird hivemind society where all have the same power set

Don't say that :(
Wind Dancer is a passionate Wind goddess.
My feisty Venezuelan would definitely want her powers back.
I forgot to quote the person so this doesn't make sens out of context.
CBR she really allow us to delete posts.[/QUOTE]
It's because I love her that I used her as an example! :D
[QUOTE=Veitha;4857422]When I saw the teaser Marvel posted this morning I actually thought the girl with the blade could have been Wind Dancer. But she.was.not.[/QUOTE]
One. hundred. percent. exactly. what. I. thought. And then a poster mentioned in the •-[A]-• thread that he had a moment with a de-powered mutant. I was like OMG it's her!

Lmao Krakoans are really triggered by Wanda! Meanwhile she has both her kids back, is in perfect metal health, cut out the part of herself she always hated the most, has a new man, has created a great friendship with the ex love of her life, and is basically living her best life!! While the mere mention of her name invokes Chaos on Krakoa you have to Stan that level of influence!!
BTW if they have such beef with Wanda why have none of them approached her? If she's a criminal to the Krakoan/Mutant race why have none of them tried to bring her in? They know where she stays!

Ressurection protocols didn't exist in 2017

cause shes an avenger hence untouchable, using her as propaganda is a very smart move

Yu draws Apocalypse how Apocalypse should be drawn.
I'm ok with these snapshot, moments in time, pieces of a larger whole issues that establish the new reality of Krakoa. They're super interesting and great for depth that I feel like you don't get in a lot of other books. (This is NOT including Hordeculture). BUT, they must lead to something bigger eventually.

I mean I thought the same thing...Sofia having a badass face off against A would've been amazing, but the Guthrie element definitely seemed needed. Sofia's close ties are people she hasn't been on-panel with in over a decade so Idk who would've been in the sidelines wanting to step in other than Dani Moonstar. Melody had like...two lines of dialogue before M-Day but her last name built her role.
This issue was also an interesting juxtaposition to Melody's last appearance in the feel good/saccharine [I]Fearless[/I] miniseries where she was told she would always have a place with the X-Men despite losing her powers.
