[QUOTE=Glio;4456381]Every time I remember that Marvel tries to make us like a character that killed the real Cable and that he had kidnapped Cyclops to set up a trap in which he would release a supervillain to attack a family, it gives me a silly laugh. In other words, who thinks it's a good idea to say: "Look, you could try to save the X-men or these random ones that I've put myself in danger unnecessarily."[/QUOTE]
And remember that less a month ago, JDW was retweeting an article about how that issue was a big redemption for Scott and proving he was wrong.
[QUOTE=phoenixzero23;4456405]Eh, Kid Cable is not that bad, the only dumb thing is the way he was introduced by killing himself but otherwise I like him.[/QUOTE]
I think putting a family in danger by pointing their address to a supervillain with motivation to kill them was also pretty dumb.
-
Cyclops should have grabbed him by the ear and forced Cable to go save the family while he was going to help with Nate Grey situation.

Yes, it was but the character is still Cable, just younger but I understand if some don't like it. I just don't think he is that bad.

[QUOTE=Glio;4456419]Cyclops should have grabbed him by the ear and forced Cable to go save the family while he was going to help with Nate Grey situation.[/QUOTE]
But then he would have ended in the AU and everything that is happening on the real world would be even worse. Give Scott's own efforts some credit.

While WiFi was running around, being useless at finding Rachel, he could’ve been grabbing vulnerable, homeless X-Men and stuffing them in his safehouse so they don’t get killed by O.N.E.

Honestly, the biggest disappointment is the fact that they had a young Cable to play with and sent him away from the characters that could have benefited from his interaction. What a missed opportunity.

I follow writers. Every time I buy an X-Men book it feels like I put my hand in the sewer. I’m excited for Hickman though.

The run was all about Brisson getting his nostalgia trip for X-force, only with the twist he replaced Cable with his pet character, just like Gold was about Guggenheim's with OML instead of classic Logan.
-
could have gotten like a maxi-series of awkward bable/hope scenes but nope

Does Brisson know who Hope is?

[QUOTE=Maestroneto;4456578]Does Brisson know who Hope is?[/QUOTE]
Bob Hope probably comes to mind. Though in all honesty, I wonder if Rosenberg called dibs.

I doubt it. We know the order of planning was Extermination/ X-force-Disassembled/AoXM-UXM.

Didn't Brisson write that funeral issue for adult Cable that was basically just Jean and Hope talking?
-
[QUOTE=Beetle;4456678]Didn't Brisson write that funeral issue for adult Cable that was basically just Jean and Hope talking?[/QUOTE]
That was Zac Thompson and Lonnie Nadler, who I think are the only two people left to both remember who Hope is and actually write her well.
-
[QUOTE=Beetle;4456678]Didn't Brisson write that funeral issue for adult Cable that was basically just Jean and Hope talking?[/QUOTE]
No, those were Zac and Lonnie, but Brisson did write a single panel of Jean hugging Hope on Cable's funeral.

Larraz drew that. Brisson didnt write it

I actually do believe Daddy Xavier has been trying to tell him to stop caring. That conversation with Dani totally felt like a psych exam as opposed to an actual dialogue between two sentient beings.

lol I don't think she was written very well there.

[QUOTE=Maestroneto;4457454]Aren't the B&W images from an unannounced book?[/quote]
I thought so, but then I realized Scott has that same stupid jacket on in the current run. Unless whatever Messina’s drawing is gonna be a flashback.
[quote]lol I don't think she was written very well there.[/QUOTE]
I mean...she wasn’t written [B]bad[/B]. Or maybe my bar for acceptable character portrayals is getting dangerously low.

Ah, you’re right! Messina is credited on the UXM #22 cover.
This means that the dream of undoing Anti-Semitty for DAWN OF X is still alive (though not getting my hopes up).
[quote]I mean...she wasn’t written [B]bad[/B]. Or maybe my bar for acceptable character portrayals is getting dangerously low[/quote]
She was written like a child obsessed with bringing Cable back so that Mother Jean could get some good moments in. Nothing like how she dealt with in when he died in SC.
-
What a complete mess this run was, and not even in the "I don't like this, so it sucks" way. Terrible pacing, nonsensical art, terrible structure, complete misunderstanding of characters.
As bloated as [I]Phoenix Resurrection [/I]was, it at least made (relative) sense. This run makes me wonder how Rosenberg ever got a job as a writer at any level. He's just not good at this. At all.
If he's one of Marvel's up-and-coming writers, the company's in even worse shape than I thought.
The silver lining to this is that Hickman is gonna look that much better. so BRING ON HICKMAN.
-
Almost forgot to ask. Who do we think is dying this issue?
I thiiiiink:
-Fabian Cortez
-Hope Summers
-Indra (shows up just to die)
-Dr Nemesis
-probably maybe Elixir

Down with the ResurreXion-era, antisemitic Kitty design. I think, aside from Rachel, she’s the only one who kept her design. Can we please get something even 1/4 better? Please?
