I just read most of the Xmen Red books out there, and I love Jean being back, But the book is harping on something that is REALLY driving me up a wall.
I think one of the reasons I loved the Outback so much was the lack of fighting because of being mutants. Yes, they had Genosha, but it wasn't all about stopping Mutant murdering things until they went back to Mastermold.
Over the years I've seen less and less reason for the world to Fear and Hate Mutants overall.
You've got LITERAL Gods throwing down on Earth, yet Mutants are the problem?
Companies, Covert groups, and random Animals and Insects biting people and giving them superpowers. Yet Mutants are the Problem?
Radiation NOT killing people and giving them powers, yet Mutants are the problem?
Alien races invading DAILY, yet Mutants are the problem?
Cosmic entities that EAT whole damn planets, yet Mutants?
Sentient viruses, and reality-altering storms and friggin Gauntlets with Gems in them, Yet Mutants are the biggest threat?
I had a lot more fun back when the X-men went through their Galactic Phases, their Adventuring days, etc.
In a world of Super Soldiers like Cap, Androids like Vision and Jocasta, People in power armor like Riri, how the hell do we keep justifying hatred of mutants? Is it sheer human stupidity?
I know that If I were writing the X-books I'd try to move away from that. It's SOOOO dated.
