    So...you don't believe it's Kitty's responsibility to keep up the morale of those under her? I think it is. I remember a line from the pilot episode of a TV show I used to watch 30 years ago.It said "Rank is something you wear, respect is something you earn". The way I see Kitty is doing nothing to earn the respect of those under her. To me, this could lead to another schism.Funny thing, is that in the last issue of U/A, Steve Rogers told Rogue "Leadership isn't just about issuing orders. Unity isn't about one person dictating rules from on high."

    No...But my thought is her current lack of control, which took place by events that took place in U/A 4 years ago, may have triggered a sub-conscious reaction in her mind to an event that took place when she was a teenager, caused her to lose control her powers again.

    Well someone needs to tell my boss IRL that one.

    But I'll give Kitty the benefit of the doubt this time and assume she thanked them off panel. She's not my favorite character, but I still think she is well intentioned.

    Yes, it'd be nice for us fans to gain some closure... the last thing anyone needs is more Magneto drama. Magneto is a complex character and "romance" conflict doesn't quite suit him - at least not with someone he's so incompatible with.

    Hey lady, I happen to understand you're pretty knowledgeable in the Romy department and your insights would make you a great guest to have on. Personally, I hope it happens.

    Thanks for the clarification. Wasn't sure since I get easily mixed up by all the crazy stories I've missed in the last decade.

    So excited for tomorrow!

    I went to my comic shop to pick up my copy of Rogue & Gambit, and they had MMX 2 and Red 7 out for tomorrow, and I had a brief discussion, and I COULD have read the copies in my folder, but I have things to do, so I need to wait until tomorrow.
    ughhhh
    Then I went to half price books, sold some books, and got X-23: Target X and Phoenix Resurrection.
    Cyclops was SO DAMN RIGHT, BABY
    Pull list: X-23, Mr. & Mrs. X, Extermination, Spider-Gwen: Ghost Spider, Uncanny X-Men
    Have been informed that the Black Swans are "only seeking female members, but thank you very much for your time"

    Interesting why we don't have any variants covers for MMX.
    Cap Marvel new mini has 2 variants for issue 5 and it is only a mini.
