PREVIEW: Extermination #5

[butterflykyss]

right? this is not the only book where it's been highlighted that she cant read someone's mind. it happened in typhoid mary, in red (granted that was against cassandra), uncanny, and now here. it seems odd, but consistent.

I'm going to be happy to the O5 go home. no more alternate, past or future xmen

Even Jean has limits. Instead of steamrolling over every problem like it's [pun intended] telepathic child's play, Jean actually has to work at it in some cases. Where's the drama if she shows up and instantly solves every problem?

I just really wanna see her TK someone out a window. For fun.

I dont think she should do that but it does kind of feel like they (the writers) are trying to make these threats seem credible by showing an omega level telepath have so much difficulty. I dont know, it just seems there is a better way to do this.

But that's the inherent problem with TP/TK: Marvel has boosted it beyond just about every other power. It's been that way for decades, with writers having to come up with reasons that Jean, Rachel, Charles, or Emma don't just end the plot. And the reasons are becoming more contrived. Especially with how much they boosted Jeen's power, it makes Jean look weaker by comparison when that shouldn't be the case.

Extermination #5, Spider-Geddon #5, Infinity Wars #6........well Marvel certainly planned the perfect week to end all their events.

Me! There’s no reason why OG adult Cable couldn’t have responded to Ahab coming back, receiving some sort of alert from the future warning him of what happens to the timeline if he kills one of the O5 here and now, and doing everything that Gen Z Cable has done in this series.

If they really needed a conflict that bad, they could've had the beginning be a convo between Hope and Cable. Both of them wondering what they should do when they see the timeline deteriorated at the end of Cable #159. Cable believing that they should be put in a safe house till this blows over with Hope taking the more pragmatic approach, knocking Cable out and basically assuming the same role that Wifi had in the story.

[Shortpack!]

Domino's got the best line.

And for real... Why hasn't anyone killed those two brats, yet?

Well... Not to mention the whole Jean-talking-calmly-with-the-guy-who-killed-her-son bit...

[Harpsikord]

Stupid sexy Tykeclops.

Technically that's her son, too. Or at least she'd know this Cable better since he's closer in age to the kid she raised.

[HandofPrometheus]

Jeez this didn't finish? I thought I missed it.

Extermination #5, Spider-Geddon #5, Infinity Wars #6........well Marvel certainly planned the perfect week to end all their events.

@Me when the X-Office tries to convince me ExtermiNatetion was an event.



@Me when two of my brain cells are working and you tell me that the squad and I's five year run ends abruptly via a wack mini that's also the prettiest trash ever printed.

Extermination #5, Spider-Geddon #5, Infinity Wars #6........well Marvel certainly planned the perfect week to end all their events.

Defenders Best Defense, Old Man Hawkeye, and Life of Captain Marvel conclude this week too, and the Champions Annual is technically the end of the teen team's first volume as well.

I am interested in how this works out. I hope both Jeans get a moment to shine. I see adult Jean is having some issues already. She should combine powers with teen Jean.

I feel like Jeen would stomp Adult Jean silly. With the way the woman always has performance issues

Lol, it would be hilarious if as Adult Jean is struggling with their minds, Teen Jean waltzes in puts them all to sleep

Jean: nnrggghh
Jeen: Chill boo, I got this

[Del torro]

I just found it funny how Jean is being ordered around by her teenage son.

Lol, it would be hilarious if Jean said, "I am your mother, and you do not talk to me that way young man"
WiFi, "yes ma'am"

Marvel thinks it makes the villains look credible but most of the time the heroes come off looking really dumb and incompetent.
