Thanks!

This series is tripping me out big time. So many unanswered questions!

Welcome

There are! The questions and how they're being raised are so fun, and hard to deduce where it's going, but you can't help but want to speculate!

I agree! The ride's enjoyable as of now. I just hope they stick the landing.

It should be a fun ride, I think! I'm enjoying the hell out of it. Man, the art is tremendous!

The problem is I don't trust any writers to write the X-Men with morally ambiguous under tones once Hickman leaves. So that might not be a viable option in the long run.

I’m hoping he sets a precedent, but we could just as easily get an Austen or Guggenheim or Rosenberg writer after Hickman’s 14-year run. But I’d rather we try it than just play it safe and get another X-Men Gold.

Thanks for warning. Damn. It seems they appear earlier and earlier with each week.

After re-reading Deadly Genesis...

1. Moira technically had the first school. Xavier helped her get her research institute up/running.
2. Vulcan was saved/born from a gestation pod that looks awfully Krakoa-ish
3. Shiar kept Vulcan (a mutant) as slave
4. Shiar had an outpost on Earth run by... someone... who needed help.

All secondary to the hidden dead team plot, but...

Newbie here. I don't know if this was already mentioned or discussed but I don't think Xavier (or X) and/or Magneto would be surviving this. I mean, they're not even mentioned in any of the Dawn of X titles.

They're on the rotating X-Men rosters with 74 other characters. Now characters who aren't in Wave 1 team books, or pictured to be in the X-Men are the characters to worry about. Husk for example. Banshee is also absent everyone. And Creed is too.

I read spoilers...
This is something unreal if it's true.

I mean, it’s a comic book... so there’s that..

I think people want things too "clean". Xavier and X-Men seemingly can't embrace the fact that they're the next step in evolution and try to make the best of it, they should be just dudes and girls in tights fighting robots, no moral ambiguity included. I don't get the appeal.

Yeah, I've seen the X-Men series described as a series that constantly tackles bigotry and the perception of humans thinking mutants will, maliciously, wipe out humans, due to Magneto's homo superior claims and what not, which definitely is valid to say, but I get the feeling some describe it like that's the only concept X-Men does.

I mean, if some writer wants to make it more like "dudes and girls in tights fighting robots," then that wouldn't be wrong either. X-Men can explore a variety of concepts rather than just one, no?

Having to physically force myself not to read spoilers. Preview pages, OTOH, I am gagging for.

Why are we looking at Days of Future Present? Wasn't that the Excalibur arc that segued Rachel out for years or am I thinking of something else? I barely recall that period re: Excalibur.

Turns out Xavier was from the broccoli planet all along and his real body was mutated into Krakoa.
