    Nah, their plan with this story is to tie some loose ends and explain cyclops death after tesing it for months... The fact that this story made everyone love and respect Emma is one of those unforseen side effects because if Marvel can't make readers like Carol Danvers or the inhumans I'm sure as hell they couldn't make a story that'd make everyone love Emma on purpose

    And you know, maybe everyone treating Scott as if he was worse than Hitler was part of the truce that Storm made with the Inhumans.

    Well, at least she could have give him the lifejacket.

    I was mostly referring to the ScEmma angle. Marvel pretty much let writers who hated the pairing (Gillen, Bendis) do whatever the hell they wanted for a good three years and a half. Next thing you know, ScEmma is a legit pairing again and the driving force of the narrative, lol. Shamelessly insincere sums it up rather accurately, me thinks.

    Actually the didn't put them back together and had Emma concoct a plan that showed her love for Cyclops but it's pretty one sided... Emma and Cyclops were working together but I don't remember them being together so it's more of Emma loving cyclops than a whole Scemma story

    Maybe they need to stop trying and then they might be doing really brilliant things.

    I really don't get this Storm. She saw Black Bolt kill Scott, knows that the mist is killing her own people and she makes a truce with the very people responsible? Bleh!!!

    I'm not happy with Cyclops death. He is intelligent and a great leader. They should have shown us how he got it and how he got it should be like he has to save another mutant or a group of mutants, sacrificing himself to be exposed to t-mists. That would have been better.

    I tend to look at the silver lining, I'm happy that he's not Hitler and that he died in the arms of a woman that loved him more than he could ever imagine

    It would have been better. But they did show how he got it. He walked straight into the mist in issue one and got the virus

    Why did he walk straight into the mist?

    I agree. Cyclops is a smart and intelligent person. Why would he do that?
