Is this a flashback? That looks like OG Freedom Force. This can't be Muir Isle in 2000 when Mystique blew the place and fatally wounded Moira, because Irene was dead then.

Yep. Over the next couple months, this title alone will set you back about $60 for the combined series. After a lost decade of fans shoveling cash down a hole hoping things might get better, some previews would be nice to earn back some trust. I hope these teams stay on schedule, keep the quality up, and stick the landing. I know people love Morrison’s run but I can’t forget the rotation of art was miserable. I learned to enjoy Quitely but then we got Kordey which was... wow.

This was my first coming in the thread since yesterday, so relax I'm not spoiling anyone. I'm just saying people have read spoilers in the thread and they may directly respond, so you have to be careful asking things like that in thread right now.
That’s not OG Freedom Force unless it includes:
- Spiral
- Secret Wars SpiderWoman (meh)
- Blob
- Crimson Commando (bleh)
- Stonewall (bleh)
- Super Sabre (bleh)
Otherwise, it’s Brotherhood of Evil Mutants 2.0. That reminds me — did they ever explain as canon why/when Magneto handed over the Brotherhood to Mystique?
It's true that the journey matters, and knowing the roadmap isn't the same as knowing what it's like to make that journey. But if you're looking for a roadmap to the ocean, and it's taking you inland into the mountains instead, then it doesn't really matter what you see along the path. You're still not going where you wanted to go.

I think that would be excusing lazy writing and encouraging the semi awful sliding timescale. Continuity is a gift and curse at times, The X-men(Marvel) would be a 1,000 times better if it got a real reboot and was allowed to clean up and consolidate good ideas concepts but then you couldn't pretend that universe has always been ongoing.
Diabolical!!!

I don't think continuity reboots ever really work.
Look at DC, every attempt at a reboot gets mostly reversed after a few years. The Batman comics continuity drags down the other comics because they only make minor changes to Bat continuity and that impacts all the other comics in the rebooted line. Eventually it's like a house of cards and the DC reboot starts to fall apart.
I think what they are doing with HoX/PoX is a decent attempt and changing current status without erasing existing continuity. It kind of resets the line because it's a new untried status quo from before. Sure Utopia was an attempt at a mutant nation, but that was also an attempt where the number of mutants was less than 198. Now we have Krakoa, which is is sort of similar to Genosha, but it's different because the core X-Men and all other teams are part of the Krakoan government instead of just having a dictatorship ran by Magneto. Admittedly there is something "sinister" happening in the series in relation to X and to Mr Sinister, but I feel like it's going to end with the mutants still using Krakoa for a home and extending their influence to the Moon and Mars as well as space.
This will be a whole new status quo and I like it. I think it would be fun if sometime over the next few years the X-Men become the most loved super hero team on Earth, or at least to the majority mutant population.
ALL YA'LL: coppin' spoilers for some reason i think
