Hello
New member here.
can i hear your opinions regarding what jean did at the end of x men red.
When she gave empathy to cassandra nova.
i too think jean should have just kicked her ass in a duel.
but my question was more about the morality of GIVING Empathy
Morality gets thrown out the window when you deal with a homicidal maniac like Nova. Any punishment or action taken towards her is justifed. I dont agree with what Jean did as Nova deserved death. I didnt expect Jean to issue it but she should have been apprehended and sentenced to death by the authorities as she was an international terrorist. What Jean did was unsatisfactory given all Nova had done
the scene left a very bad taste in my mouth.
It seemed to me liked the authors were trying to show how great Jean is by having here reform nova instead of fighting her.
Yet the it obviously looks like mind control. There is no sugar coating it.
Using telepathic ability to manipulate someone is wrong.
The scene was played in such a way that we(the readers) were supposed to praise Jean for Reforming nova
Yet her actions hardly deserved praise.
