[QUOTE=metalclouds;4833439]By the way Sharks don't eat humans.[/QUOTE]
Surely you jest? Sharks don't actively hunt living humans very often, but they are definitely opportunistic and would not hesitate to eat a dead human floating in the water for days. In fact, pirates often reported sharks following their ships and there are plenty of accounts of shipwrecked crews being picked off by them out of the water.

Because Krakoa is the embodiment of all Kitty haters equally to size of the islands and anything produced from it.

I already stanned the island now its permenant.
Side note, the x-factor drastic makeover has me itching for something for my non betsy/emma girls, so storm, dani, illyana and monet, especialy ororo.
I like the x-men red costume a lot but its time for a change.

[QUOTE=butterflykyss;4833697]yup exactly but I'm still curious as to why.[/QUOTE]
Same here. Probably some special/customized ish but I don’t recall Krakoa having the ability to suppress powers. I want Storm to murder Shaw. HARSHLY! Call him a cold hearted bastard and slowly freeze his heart at the next Quiet Council meeting. Though I’d like to see this galvanizes Storm in a significant way.

yea I dont recall that either for krakoa but there is something larger at play here. I cant even begin to speculate but this point precogs are not wanted on the island like destiny and kitty ciuldnt access it. there might be a connection but I cant figure out what that would be.
that would be so cool if at the auiet council meeting after she finds out everyone is seated and storm walks in like naomi Campbell late and dramatic like then instantly freezes his heart and/or shuts off the synapses to both his brain and heart making his death as painful as possible.

The precogs aren't wanted because Xavier, Magneto, and Moira believe that Krokoa will eventually fall and mutants will be mostly exterminated. They don't want people who can see the future to tell anyone so hope can remain.

so you're saying you dont think it could be something beyond just that? perhaps I mean that's what has been said but I feel like Xavier and magneto are still hiding their hands.
do you feel like ororo is a mutant supremacist based upon all you've been reading? that was an interesting discussion in the regard on the BP thread that im.curious to see what some here think.

"Of course, [B]sharks are an important scavenger in warm waters[/B], like those off of Brazil[or off of Madripoor, for example], and can quickly reduce a body to shreds. "Sharks, like any predator, are opportunistic feeders, and they'll take advantage of a resource that's given to them," says George Burgess, director of the Florida Program for Shark Research at the Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville and the curator of the International Shark Attack File."
[URL="https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/the-worst-shark-attack-in-history-25715092/"]https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/the-worst-shark-attack-in-history-25715092/[/URL]
"As the sun rose on July 30, the survivors bobbed in the water. Life rafts were scarce. The living searched for the dead floating in the water and appropriated their lifejackets for survivors who had none. Hoping to keep some semblance of order, survivors began forming groups—some small, some over 300—in the open water. Soon enough they would be staving off exposure, thirst—and sharks.
The animals were drawn by the sound of the explosions, the sinking of the ship and the thrashing and blood in the water. Though many species of shark live in the open water, none is considered as aggressive as the oceanic whitetip. Reports from the Indianapolis survivors indicate that the sharks tended to attack live victims close to the surface, leading historians to believe that most of the shark-related causalities came from oceanic whitetips.
The first night, the sharks focused on the floating dead. But the survivors’ struggles in the water only attracted more and more sharks, which could feel their motions through a biological feature known as a lateral line: receptors along their bodies that pick up changes in pressure and movement from hundreds of yards away. As the sharks turned their attentions toward the living, especially the injured and the bleeding, sailors tried to quarantine themselves away from anyone with an open wound, and when someone died, they would push the body away, hoping to sacrifice the corpse in return for a reprieve from a shark’s jaw. Many survivors were paralyzed with fear, unable even to eat or drink from the meager rations they had salvaged from their ship. One group of survivors made the mistake of opening a can of Spam—but before they could taste it, the scent of the meat drew a swarm of sharks around them. They got rid of their meat rations rather than risk a second swarming.
The sharks fed for days, with no sign of rescue for the men. Navy intelligence had intercepted a message from the Japanese submarine that had torpedoed the Indianapolis describing how it had sunk an American battleship along the Indianapolis’ route, but the message was disregarded as a trick to lure American rescue boats into an ambush. In the meantime, the Indianapolis survivors learned that they had the best odds in a group, and ideally in the center of the group. The men on the margins or, worse, alone, were the most susceptible to the sharks.
As the days passed, many survivors succumbed to heat and thirst, or suffered hallucinations that compelled them to drink the seawater around them—a sentence of death by salt poisoning. Those who so slaked their thirst would slip into madness, foaming at the mouth as their tongues and lips swelled. They often became as great a threat to the survivors as the sharks circling below—many dragged their comrades underwater with them as they died.
A little after midnight, the USS Doyle arrived on the scene and helped to pull the last survivors from the water. Of the Indianapolis’ original 1,196-man crew, only 317 remained. Estimates of the number who died from shark attacks range from a few dozen to almost 150. It’s impossible to be sure. But either way, the ordeal of the Indianapolis survivors remains the worst maritime disaster in U.S. naval history."

Damn, I really was hoping but knew there's no way she'd get an issue if shes already in the first. Makes sense now why she was pushed in the background.
Thank you Hickman, this is the question we've all been wondering for years now, Dauterman drawing it is the cherry on top.
