Preview: Age Of X-Man: Prisoner X #1

[CoCoBandz]

Because Nate has a Oedipus complex. And bishop threaten that

Nate is too gross.

Want him to get beaten up.

I didn't say it was Trinary. I said that it still looked like her.

I still think that it's NEITHER of them. Given that the prison may or may not be the Danger Room, I'm thinking Danger.

She is definitely Trinary, Dani has two long braided hair.

Trinary only has one.

Who wants to bet 1 million dollars?

It doesn’t matter who you think it is.

Vita Ayala, the one writing the book, said it’s Dani Moonstar.

The author seems confused herself.

Dani is with Cyclops whereas Trinary did answer the call when Jean called.

Anyway,the terrible art doesn't help either.

Vita Ayala goes by they/them pronouns. And there are multiple doubles throughout Age of X-Man. Please don’t presume to know more than the author on their own work.

Remember that AoA had 2 Moonstars, Dani who was mutilating Deadpool and got killed in X-Caliber and then in AoA 2, we had Dana Moonstar, who turned out to be Danielle's sister, with the Morlocks. Perhaps this is a simular case.

Or maybe Trinary and Dani are both in the book. So let us read the issue, before assuming.

What other doubles have we encountered so far?

The only other one I can think of off the top of my head is Mystique.

Looks like a winner

[Heroine Addict]

Oh yeah, this is the ticket. VERY atmospheric, with a palpable sense of tenseness. Despite the seeming order & relative quiet, everything feels like it's teetering on the edge of chaos already, and about to erupt. Like there's a slow boil that's brewing, and unrest is bubbling just below the surface. Like there's a smoldering, that was just lit & is now burning, and it's gonna go from a small flame... into a RAGING fire!

The sequences & layout thereof, the art--with it's heavy lines, and deep, almost cloudy, watercolor like hues--and the carefully constructed dialogue, with its subtle warnings & suggestive threatening, all contribute perfectly to the compelling mood & narrative that's presented. I'm instantly enraptured, and couldn't ask for anything more.

KNEW Forge was gonna be runnin' the show. Diggin' the faceless, HFC like look of the guards, adds to the scare factor of the sinister intimidation tactics imposed. SO glad Lorna & "Dani" seem tight. Bishop looks HOT. Some of the other, so far nameless inmates, are MOST intriguing. And is that FRENZY I see, behind Polaris in the latter panels?

[Heroine Addict]

The author seems confused...

HA! No, you do.

[Heroine Addict]

... Between these pages, and that preview from JDW's interview, Lorna looks kinda sad, and unsure of herself. ...

Yeah...

... she does seem sorta forlorn, BUT...

... Quite the contrast between the second issue's cover. ...

... you're RIGHT...



... apparently, that doesn't last.

... Very eager to see more of her.

Without a doubt.

[Heroine Addict]

... My main issue with this, altough a minor one, is that Bishop appears with a gun in the team portrait during the Alpha issue, like it's no biggie, but suddenly it's a crime worth a mindwipe. A minor inconsistency, but I don't like it. ...

Not suddenly. If you remember, Bishop was shown to have a secret weapons stash, in a hidden closet compartment.

Not suddenly. If you remember, Bishop was shown to have a secret weapons stash, in a hidden closet compartment.

The issue is that when he's with the team he has a gun and it's apparently not a big deal but then all of a sudden it's one of his charges.

Unless it was very specifically only okay when he was with the X-Men...

[Triniking1234]

To your point...why is Nezumi and Luke given 3 strikes and Bishop and Jean given one?

It's implied those other two strikes happened off-screen.

Maybe his powers operate differently now that he was made a mutant this time.

So he's a skinhead mutant with bad tattoos. Guess that explains why he's in jail.
