    My guess is that it's just going to be a natural manifestation from Kurt himself, like his astral cutlass. If we're feeling real sassy then it'll have to do with his time in heaven, since that's...

    Overall, I'd say it's not great, but it's leaps and bounds better than WoX, LoX, and SoX.

    The attempts at humor felt too forced. Like, Kurt had to say "I'm going to tell a joke now!" and the...

    I have been one of the most outspoken critics of Spurrier's Nightcrawler on this forum, but if he can properly establish Mystique and Destiny as his parents and retcon Azazel, it would go a long way...

    The problem here is, in the Austen-verse,* the devil and his demons are based on Azazel. Couple that with how Angel's ancestors and clan opposed Azazel's and how Angel's blood is physiologically...
  5. True the circumstances are different, but the...

    True the circumstances are different, but the very first thing Kurt ever did is get chased by an angry mob because he killed someone. And that killing was the impetus for joining the X-men, not...

    I mean, maybe if he had actually stated a reason for leaving or something he was trying to accomplish. When I read the issue I had just assumed the murders were a side note, not his primary reason...

    I don't understand everyone's sentiment around Kurt leaving. Kurt's spent so little time on Krakoa as it is. WoX and LoX seemed like they were trying to set him up as a big thought leader, but he...

    Never going to not call it the Carebear Sword. The soulsword being jammed in Kurt at least had a basis in the existing lore. This thing reads like it's from a children's book.

    Yeah, piggybacking on everyone else, this issue was kind of a big mess.

    And I feel like there ought to be more to Margali than just being a one-note villain whenever she shows up. It's basically...

    Yeah, the framing of that explanation is bizarre. Like Kurt doesn't care who walks into his home, he'll bang them regardless. Kurt was always sex-positive, but he wasn't the "anything that moves"...

    So are we all going to just ignore that Gillen made a Holy War reference with the exploding communion wafer?


    Ok yeah, that's probably for the best.

    Warlock's monolog was one of the more egregious violations of "show don't tell" I've seen lately. It was like watching the opening crawl on a movie that hasn't been edited or reading a fantasy novel...

    While agree that "it was bad on its own merits" is enough to hate on the story, the conceit of the Draco is that Azazel was the inspiration for Satan and his demons. According to the Draco,...

    I haven't been following Isca, so I'm not sure I get what's happening here. So I'm going to summarize what I'm seeing, please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Isca's power is to always be on the winning...

    So Ora comes into Krakoa and starts blasting and just expects things to be fine? I'm not up to date on Krakoan politics, but that's gotta be like a war crime, right? Was Ora just planning to get off...

    It's the most interesting take on Kurt since his last solo. It does remind me of how he used to put on a jovial front to hide his insecurities. But it doesn't quite feel authentic to that version of...

    I am somewhat torn. I came off of Way of X deeply offended at...well a lot of things in that book. LoX feels in many ways to be a walking back of WoX, especially Kurt's character. This is the most...

    Kurt: "No. Once is recreation and has value. Twice is Indulgence."
    Kurt(3 speech boxes later): "Life can't be all about duty, Zsen."

    What is this dialog.

    Well, the missing deity and the skinjacker being the same case is way less of a revelation than they painted it as. Narrative convention told us they were related in #1, and the way the narrative...

    Since Nightcrawler's the keeper of the Spark, perhaps the twist is that he's going to ascend to godhood.

    Way of X was straight-up insulting. From writing Nightcrawler as a proselytizing douche to the nonsensical moral dilemmas like "sex is only for procreation" and "conspiracy to murder humans isn't a...

    Maybe Kurt voted yea because he knows that Destiny's his real mom, and this way his whole family's on the council.

    We all agree the Draco only took place in Moira Life #6, right?

    Yeah, I agree with all this. I've also made my thoughts clear in the WoX and Onslaught threads, but writers seem to not get the reason people like Nightcrawler (hint: it's not because he spends all...

    How. DARE. You. A beard is the best thing to happen to Kurt in 23 years.

    So... I guess everything just got solved with the power of friendship and making stuff up? Seriously, did they beat Onslaught by going to Legion's mind dimension, linking everyone's psyche with Dust...
