    No, I meant what I said. Claremont wanted Boom Boom in UXM, but was blocked from getting her.. Jubilee was created to be a replacement in the stories he had planned for Boom Boom. Being a mallrat, orphan, eccentric fashion sense, loud personality, impulsive....that was all Boom Boom and thats before one brings in the power comparison. Had Claremont gotten his way, Jubilee would have never been created. She only came about bc Simonson suggested he make "his own Boom Boom" which he proceeded to do

    I will be forever grateful to Simonson for her stubbornness.

    And, yes, Gambit is a thief and a criminal. An anti-hero at best. And, yes, he deserves to be held to account.

    Know what is really offensive? Acting like a therapist breaking every code of psychological conduct and forcing a telepathic affair with a man suffering from PTSD is the man's fault.
    I actually agree with you on this.

    I love Emma, but what she did was sleazy as hell. I dislike Scott, but acting like Emma isn't somewhere between 85-99% responsible for that is revisionism.
    It's more 60/40 with Emma bearing the 60%. She's primarily responsible, but Scott wasn't mentally incapacitated or morally non-functional. He was depressed, not insane.

    For me personally? Jean telekinetically beating the ever-loving **** out of Emma and then telepathically forcing her to experience first-hand what Scott's betrayal felt like. As for Scott--a proper redemption arc with Scott taking responsibility for his wrongdoing (Bendis got him a good start), atoning for all his bullshit, and growing back into the boy scout he's supposed to be. That, or a retcon that wipes it all away and resets him back to where he was circa 1997.

    So... what you want... already happened...

    New X-Men #139... you know, one chapter after Jean found out. Jean nearly killed Emma out right, and gave her the kind of telepathic beating normally only reserved for people like Apocalypse.

    Feel free to re-read it all you want.

    This whole thread isn't even about Scott, Jean, Emma or Jott/Scemma and yet the same, tired "Jean fans" keep bringing this mess up like it's going to change something. Stop already.

    I wouldn't try and engage with William Stryker there about "morality and relatively" and adultery being worse then genocide committed by many members, child soldiers etc

    At this point it would be great to see Kelly Thompson reunite them just to watch heads explode.

    They don't have to hurt Gabby. I'd be happy if Gabby's mouth was duct taped shut just to stop her from spouting cutesy stupid stuff.

    Oh wait... editorial basically did that for the last two years. So I dunno what will appease them at this point.

    I don't think it necessarily means we won't be getting a NXM/younger generation book out of this. It does make me wonder if we're about to lose the Mutant Hogwarts status that the school's had on and off since the early 2000's in this event.

    BC thinks that all the books will be put on pause because of the UXM relaunch...lets see how this plays out



    now that I think about this would make sense seeing as how JD has stated he much would rather want a cohesive line, and better attention to continuity with the xbooks
