I'd have read the hell out of a Game of Thrones-esque Inhumans. Watered-down X-Inhumans doesn't interest me in the slightest, even setting all the corporate BS aside. I do enjoy Ms Marvel, however,...

Plans significant enough to need a bridge (presumably to a new status quo). Well, my week is made.

(Also, another person here who will be buying this in every format offered.)

Yeah, I'm buying both too. There are a few books I will do that for in the name of adding a few extra numbers to the sales figures. ;)

You know, I just have to jump in here to say that was incredibly well-phrased.

Nice catch. Well, that's a happy piece of news on a Monday afternoon...

I think part of the point of Spurrier's X-Force was actually to detach her from Cable (by having her 'grow up') so that isn't the case. As much as I did like the two of them under Swierczynski's pen...

M-Day did kill a number of mutants very directly ("countless" was the precise word used) and quite a few on-camera in some pretty horrific ways. That is of course "old" continuity that we're supposed...

Actually this all raises an interesting point. Which continuity is this trial being held in? Old continuity, where the past actions of the Phoenix are relevant, or "new" continuity where the Phoenix...

Oh wow, the thread went Godwin already...

Citation for the bolded, please. (I won't hold my breath.)

Maybe the Utopians have the Phoenix egg. Isn't that where the last big fight was in AvX, or am I misremembering?

It's fairly recent news, I think. ;) But I imagine it can cover a multitude of sins/things that the next set of writers don't really want to be bothered with.

Not the 'Time Runs Out' gap, the 8-month gap that's coming between the end of Secret Wars and the beginning of what follows.

Well, that too. But it seems even odder to be using him as an authority when he doesn't seem to actually hold that opinion anyway.

I'm just a little confused as to where this critic said that the relationship was "gross". Random isn't quite the same thing.

I think you put your finger on it there. There's really two different kinds of fear/hatred at work with mutants. You might fear mutants who might blow up your street/school/place of business and/or...

I'm all in favour of massive status quo changes, to be honest, but taken strictly in isolation I'm still not sure how this would work in any sort of compelling fashion, even if you were to set aside...

There's an argument to be made that there's no real need to distinguish between one piece of appalling drek and another, too... ;)

Remender... didn't write AvX.

I'd actually prefer to see the schools plural gone, period. I'm so heartily bored of it all. Surely there are more (and more interesting) stories to tell.

Cable was on a cover fighting someone in an Iron Man suit.

My point is that he's had a number of major plot arcs, which are not the same thing as character traits. I think we ought to be looking at consistent characterization as a good thing, no? Rather than...

They've managed to completely re-invent him twice. Whether they do it a third time is just a question of whether they want to.

I've decided to continue to have faith in the hints dropped re: Cable and Deadpool teaming up again. We'll see, I suppose.

They've reinvented Cable a number of times. If they're so inclined, they'll do it again; if not, they won't. But to say he had "a" storyline isn't quite accurate. He's had several.

As for his...
