Preview: Age of X-Man: Marvelous X-Men #3

[butterflykyss]

I dont this has anything to do with a love connection. i think the awkwardness stems from when they touched each other and both got a glimpse of their true self and past:

[butterflykyss]

It's not that she can't End Destructive Storm. She just chooses Not Too.....

An awkwardly uncomfortable love connection?



I got the impression she was trying to control & contain it, at least in the "now".

and this is the synopsis of storm on the marvel page:


https://www.marvel.com/articles/comi...arvelous-x-men

Once, Storm was worshiped like a goddess. But it’s hard to be a god in someone else’s world. Storm’s weather powers remain, and yet she seems less powerful than before. That may be intentional. At full strength, Storm’s powers and will are truly indomitable. Not even the Shadow King was able to break her. If anyone can free themselves from X-Man’s influence, it just might be her.


If she tries to control it but cant it would make sense but she clearly weaker from some reason and I hope its explained why.

It was Nate imo he kept the X-men more capable of breaking his hold of them and keep them close to him so this reality he made isn´t broken by them or if it´s, he can always try to erase their former memories, he probably already has done this a number of times, the side-effect is that they may think they are losing their minds but if someone else is also remembering then maybe there´s something more going on and that´s why Storm wants to talk with Magneto but he probably doesn´t want to because that would mean going back to the man "he used to be".

exactly. I don't think magneto wants to go back to that person he was.

[Lucyinthesky]

That is his tragedy, he usually is happier in AU universes than in the main one, in Age of X-man Wanda and Pietro still are his children, mutantkind isn´t in danger, he´s one of its main protectors and he´s part of a X-men team he feels protective about despite his dark past, this is like a Magneto who never leave the X-men back in the 80´s, the only problem is that

1.- He just hates being manipulated, specially by telepahs
2.- If he remembers Nate brainwashing him to become one of his riders to attack the X-men all bets are off, living a lie is worse than being afraid of returning to bad habits.
3.- I still hope he and storm kiss or form a team to defeat Nate at the very least, I miss their freenemy relationship

Yeah, that makes sense that's very much what he's thinking.

Oh, yeah that's right. Forgot about that.

[Heroine Addict]

... If she tries to control it but cant it would make sense but she clearly weaker from some reason and I hope its explained why.

I've said it before... it's Nate! He's taken eXtra precautions in suppressing her true self, I think, for what happened in Disassembled+. And like that link says:

Bald Storm is absolutely gorgeous. I hope this looks sticks beyond the messed up dimension.

I didn't like it at first but it is starting to grow on me.

[Tazpocalapse]

I think Ororo has maybe been expeiriencing what Magnus did and she saw it. So she wants to ask him about it. I believe that the memory projection may have been Magnus remembering the past, and lashing out physically. Not having close relationships and the mindwipes are probably now confusing the X-men. Making them want to seek answers among themselves. I do think that fire seems to play apart symbolically. Peter is painting Lockheed with fire in the background when he starts to remember.

My theory is Jean is subconsciously fighting control and is trying to send messages to the X-men through subtle reminders of their pasts and is trying to get them to remember while Nate's grip on this world is weakening and slowly dying.

Storm is connected to nature. It's how her powers work. She's going to notice if something is wrong. The difference here is that she is smart enough to keep her mouth shut about it until she can form a plan to talk to someone in private.

[ShepardOakenshieldPrime]

It would be awesome if Storm and Magneto work together to try and figure things out, I love the natural balance with weather explanation. It's good to see they actually get her.

Magneto would never want a restart without Anya and Luna.

exactly I agree to all of this!!!

I agree with the points in the first paragraph but I'm not so sure about jean being the one who is fighting control for the others especially per the description about Ororo on the marvel page.


oan:

I dont know if any one caught this but Ororo talking about preserving the natural balance of things is a characteristic unique to her mentioned in black panther where it was revealed she is a goddess. I wonder if this is something that is being hinted at in age of x and will goddess storm appear:

[Lucyinthesky]

Magneto would never want a restart without Anya and Luna.

Agreed, he probably has been mourning Anya along with Wanda and Pietro in this reality but Luna is another matter, but I suspect that there may be a version of her in Age of X-man and maybe like in the case of Dany there are two of them now.

Storm and Magneto? Blech

Magneto is cool and all, but Storm can do better than grandpa's...

Tbh I can't see Magneto being with anybody at his age. Briar was weird as hell.
