She's not an Omega. She's Theta.
Which I take to mean her power is finite.

Only in the sense that Destiny foresaw 10 lives, with maybe 11 if Moira played her cards right. But that's also what Destiny saw, and we know her visions aren't always accurate -- she can be surprised, too (like her present self in DoFP).

That's So Destiny.

Don't give Disney ideas.

Lol. No kidding

Theta = death

Hickman's such a damn nerd. Theta also represents the number 9 which is the number of lives Moira used so far. It was also written like this:

Just read House of X #2.

Holy freaking sh*t, it's been a long time since something blew my mind like that issue did, one of the best single issues in recent memory, it was great.

Anyway, I was surprised at a little detail in the chart from the final page, Cassandra Nova's genocide of Genosha was only 3 years ago in Marvel Universe time, that's extremely recent, more so considering everything the X-Men have done and go through since then. I'd have thought at least 5-8 years had passed since Genosha.

Also, I think the fact that her 6th life was skipped will be a very important factor down the line, that can't be random.

no way...he really thinks about everything

[powerpax]

I am not taking the claim of Genosha being 3 years ago seriously. I chalk that up to what I think Jordan White said about 'averaging out' the sliding timescale and it being fluid and up to interpretation. For me personally the overall X-timeline is a minimum of ten years.

From Powers Of X #1....

When they run down the "Surviving Mutants..." list, they point out that a number of mutants are seemingly acting a Superguardians for the Empire. It will be interesting to see just how much they wind up addressing that if it should ever come up again.

I need Trevor and Lin to still be alive.

Yes. We were discussing this in other threads, and possibly this one. Theta is a mutable symbol and way back before it was a Greek letter it was the symbol on the front of the book. Also the symbol being a circle suggests it was partly chosen to represent Moira’s reincarnation cycles. It has other meanings too. Look carefully and you can see the Infinity symbol in there also. The one we keep hearing, that it’s a death symbol, is only one of many meanings, and not actually that common.

I just read House of X#1 and Powers of X#1 recently and thought the stories were great.
I will be reading for sure the X-men comics,it have been years since i thought the x-men comics were must reads as they are now with stories by Jonathan Hickman and art by Pepe Larraz and R.B.Silva.
