I won't lie, when I saw that final panel about Katrina I burst out laughing. I remember how ridiculous some members were about Katrina from the jump but wow, you guys were 100% right.

That was a very strong issue, and a perfect example of what a strong antagonist can do to a story. This is what the Krakoan era has been lacking by severely overpowering the heroes while constantly...
Magneto casually came up during a classroom discussion regarding racism, and the various forms it has taken in the past and how one could see examples of it in fictional works. Several folks in the...
To me it's even simpler than that: Humans are, on the whole, prone to negative thinking and fear based responses first and foremost. Because ultimately it's the bad things in life that will deprive...
Yeah, the Tony & Jean issues were great and it looks like Ajak's is following a similar level of quality. I do not have high hopes for Ajak passing this test, she's an unapologetic zealot and (much...
I bet the entire planet was caught in its illusion the moment the plan to destroy its obvious weakness was concocted. There's been a consistent theme of it watching everyone intently. What better way...
Folks have largely covered why the why this Mutants vs [Insert Team] thing keeps happening. Marvel has a real problem with this in general, and as someone said the mutants have far too many tools to...
This went exactly as Gillen said it would, and he was not kidding in saying it would become a lot more philosophical while maintaining the scale and scope. This is NOT a problem you can punch or...
That's exactly what I think will cause this "war" between the mutants and Eternals to come to a screeching halt. Especially if it happens quite publicly. Well, that and the revived Progentitor...
Yeah, this team plus the Krakoans means these Eternals are going to be facing a ridiculous amount of firepower. It makes me wonder what'll happen if one of them is slain. Will it be like others said...
The lines from Gillen about the despair for humanity and the world being the driving force, that only Act 1 is the Eternals vs X-Men war, and the later acts increase in scale but also become much...
No, that's just stupid. Bad people did things to mutants, and the response is no human laws (seriously, none at all) apply to mutants. If it was some (like the ones abused against them), but the...
To be honest, the entire Krakoan Gate setup is one of the dumbest, most indefensible things to come out of Marvel Comics. And yes, this puts in the came camp as The Wall and Carol giving birth to her...
Unfortunately, the silo that is the X-Men franchise at Marvel and the editorial staff that run it really don't like sharing their toys. I've seen it time and again that if a mutant is created in some...
Xavier said opened with it when he invaded the minds of every human on Earth to read them the new state of things. And Magneto's line keeps being referenced because he did say it during a public...
Yeah, the fact that Orchis was actually willing to work with mutants is definitely a credit to Marvel and their storytellers. We all talked about how not all mutants would agree with the current...
This is right on point. I think her lack of development is aggravating, and seeing scenes where instead of giving her viewpoint they instead have her defer to the nearest character makes it worse....
This is precisely why I'm not surprised the humans population reacted the way they did in the first issue of Judgement Day. In the span of 1 year they've had mutants, a species that first made itself...
Thinking about it more, I doubt it's a coincidence that there are 6 Hex (and the name itself gives it away) and those 6 humans are the most important folks in the entire world. Someone already...
Well, for many years that X-Men was largely synonymous with mutants as a whole. Now that they have a nation state some parts of the fandom are having a hard time separating the actions of the team...
No, the X-Men team are not considered villains. They're actually pretty beloved in that book.
The Quiet Council, however, is effectively a Legion of Doom Lite. They constantly feel like they're...
But notice how long that has taken to come about in the books, and the rarity at which Charles (and the others involved in this) receives pushback for it. I'm glad the ball is finally rolling on...
This was absolutely beautiful and captured the nuances of that whole scenario perfectly. It goes back to what Hickman setup back in HoX for Charles. He knows what happened in Moira's other lives and...
Exactly, and it also brings up interesting questions. Just like how Orchis is exploiting mutant deathlessness to argue that there is no such thing as murdering a mutant, I'm sure your scenario will...
I know how it works. The story will simply have one of those random human deaths happen in the same area as the fight, in public view. For storytelling purposes it's not a stretch at all. I'm willing...
