Pitch sounds like returning to the idea Claremont had back when Jean first became Phoenix. She becomes cosmic Thor-level and moves on. But editorial did not like it and, ever since, she has been...

And that panel where Illyana and Kitty are literally hugging it out, within moments after killing Orchis goons.

Duggan’s attempts to put the toys back in box is creating a toxic superfund site.

Just realized the show’s iconic theme music sounds a lot like the melody from “I’m your baby tonight” by Whitney Houston. Or vice versa. :confused:

Either way, it’s an earworm.

Yeah. Her character has pretty much evolved beyond serving as some sort of moral authority. That’s the downside of going full Punisher: There’s no going back to a character whose values or innocence...

That had to be the slowest banishment to the negative zone ever.

Team caught like flies in a portal long enough to talk about what to do next, telepathically negotiate Doom’s help, AND his...

Looks like the neutralizer to me. And it would effectively kill Moira since it would shut down her power to reincarnate.

Hoping that whole series of psychic handoffs doesn’t turn out to be Xavier seeding the last remaining portion of Sinister for upload into dominion thereby fulfilling Sinister’s ascension. Cause that...

If that’s Forge’s neutralizer he’s not killing her. He’s shutting down her X-gene (and connection to Phoenix). Also, Forge’s neutralizer isn’t permanent; Storm got better.

But with Rachel and her...

So well written, in so many ways.
Makes me proud to read these books again.
Ewing's name on books has gotten me to pick up stuff I normally wouldn't consider.
Hopefully there will be more X-Books...

Serious question.

Can someone explain when / how / why we wound up with a Krakoa in the Pacific and a Krakoa in the Atlantic? In addition to Arrako?

Been reading this whole time and "two...

I see what you did there. LOL.

If Marvel wants to make some real money, they should include a behind the scenes look in a trade -- explaining how all the plans changed during the era and clearing up the weird inconsistencies.
...

Agree - this should have come out sooner or at least worked itself out through the ongoings. At best this feels like very poorly executed Rashomon.

For example, which betrayal is ahead as told in...

… and finishes with notes of Deathstar.

Same. This issue's so-that-happened killing(s) followed by literal group hugs is really weird.

Not really. Duggan doesn't make me dislike characters as much as Austen did. Austen found a way to inhabit characters and make them thoroughly unlikable.

Duggan's recent uninspired use of...

RE: Doom's D-Men. Same -- the could be the perfect counter to the X-Men, in a "so wrong, they're right / hate to love them" kind of way.

RE: Firestar - if Duggan keeps this quality up, nobody...

Dumping water inside a robot to kill it was the French kiss (of terrible).
Wasn't over a decade ago, Marvel acknowledged its core audience was older fans who hadn't moved on?
And yet, we get the...

Yeah, any rhyme or reason to the soulsword died a lonnnng time ago. It's now whatever the writer wants it to be.
And that artwork's deadpan tone is reminiscent of 80's Saturday morning Spider-man...

Yes! Ewing makes the characters seem real. Best they have been since the 80s. Rather read him doing great character driven stuff as opposed to theoretical world building or widescreen event stuff.

That art undermined the story. Felt like watching 80s Saturday morning Spider-Man. Not good.
And can we just move on from sync already? Such a Mary Sue. He’s literally just a rehash of Rogue. Right...

This was better than expected.
Odd there's no explanation of how the team was resurrected.
Prodigy accumulating all that knowledge seems less like a hunt for Moira and more like Xavier's mutant...

Red Skull reveals he is a mutant supremacist; pulling strings from behind the scenes for decades. Make it happen!

This issue really was an example of exposition run amok. I did find it interesting the issue ended as a mirror / parallel to the beginning. Scott with Jean in his head. Synch with Talon in his head....

Time for the Red Skull’s latent X-gene to activate. Much more compelling story opportunities than Ms Marvel discovering she’s a mutant. And zero chance for a redemption arc.
