she tried to violate teen Scott on Blue too

[QUOTE=Jbenito;4359614]For those (including myself) who feel none of this matters anymore since Hickman is coming, C.B. Cebulski sets the record straight here:

Jubilee is quite happy with the whole thing:

It's going to be interesting to see because this cover doesn't quite say whether Emma will be on the side of the angels or not, although she is rocking an "X":

I hope you are right. that would be ideal if it was not a reboot.

Well [B]Powers of X[/B] is the book that's gonna be dealing with the history, according to Hickman. So I think these characters are being shown at different times.
For example, Creed is wearing his Weapon X-Force costume. But he was a "good guy" (using that loosely) in Weapon X. Meanwhile he is openly villainous again now. So if he appears in the book, and isn't simply decoration, it'll probably be a flashback at best. Assuming he's not killed off in WoR. lol
Similar could be the case for Emma, where we're gonna see her history on the side of the X-Angels, but it may not show us where she is currently.
That cover seems like a hodgepodge of characters whose history we may get some glimpses of at different times in their careers.

All good points.

[QUOTE=Fantasy Free Me;4359412]While I get your point this is not a new "feat" though. During Second Coming (?) Emma was psionically tagging alone from long range with the X-Men group going after Sinister, and she kept herself hidden all the time without Sinister noticing until they actually told him to try and pick into their minds.[/QUOTE]
It's not the feat or even an Emma vs Sinister debate, really. The whole "I have to fake my non-existence to pull off a Palpatine level stunt, but I'll keep using my Jedi/Sith powers on the people who are at the center of basically everything" premise just comes off as wanting to have one's cake and eating it too. Happens a lot in fiction. Hardly a deal-breaker, just kinda dumb. Oh well.

Anyone not down for a proper Sinister-on-Sinister death match?
-
Lots of deaths, weird behaviouring and events with no explanations.
Is it Uncanny X-men or GOT Season 8?

[QUOTE=butterflykyss;4359648]I hope you are right. that would be ideal if it was not a reboot.[/QUOTE]
Maybe a soft-reboot, marvel never really fully rebooted
-
Ok. I like Rosenberg and was a fan of his previous stuff like Punisher: War Machine, Astonishing X-Men and Tales of Suspense, but this current Uncanny run is just not good. At all. I don't know what happened but it feels like it was phoned in. This guy should be able to do better.
Oh well, it's almost over anyway. Bring on Hickman.

Rosenber’s X-Men is to Hickman’s X-Men as Avengers Disassembled is to New Avengers

Nah, Rosenberg's X-Men is to Hickman's X-Men what Chuck Austen's short stint on Avengers was to Brian's Avengers. The meh lead-up to a franchise shaker. And that sounds like a sick burn, but Austen's Avengers actually isn't the worst thing in the world, even if I wouldn't recommend it.

I'd say the analogy is Scott Lobdell's brief return in 2001 before Morrison's run began, but yeah.
