All I want to know is if Hickman keeps up the comic/encyclopedia hybrid style for this issue?

Yup and encyclopedia part this week carries a lot of meat of the book this week

More confirmation that Krakoa is happening in the 616 universe.

I have some thoughts on those secrets, alright.

i hope so i like it. i would love for them to just collect it all in a trade with some added stuff.

Blessed are we, who've received the bounty of DOUG RAMSEY.

Doug = Best Boy (Evan is his second)

I feel the same as many of you, that the X3: Year One Thousand sections are unnecessary. I'm still waiting for that payoff. However, the rest of HoX & PoX has been f***ing fascinating! Expertly constructed! PoX#4 has me convinced that Hickman's plan for the story is well researched and very well thought out. I love that Doug Ramsey was instrumental in creating the Krakoa mutant haven. I love that Xavier & Magneto solicited Sinister. Did they know he'd turn out to be evil, at that point? Probably not, right? Honestly, when it comes to the X-Men never really dying, even if it was explained a different way originally, Sinister's DNA collection helps all the resurrections over the years to make more sense to me.

I think if I only read these books once, instead of 4 or 5 times each, I might be super confused, but after multiple readings, the story is tight!

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm dreading the end of this story, because I don't want the X-Men to revert to previous status quo; crisis, resolution, crisis, resolution, crisis, resolution. I want more character work and relationship study and family dynamics and long-form story telling that actually matters with significant long-term consequences. I guess that's why I loved The Walking Dead comic so much. I guess I want the X-Men to be more like The Walking Dead!

I'll take this A.I. stuff over plant love anyday, tbh. Sorry, Amazon. The forest. I still like trees.

They had to know what he is. Moira knew.

They knew thanks to Moira, Magneto told him he saw the future about him.

As much as I loved HoX/PoX initially, its going too far off the rails for me. Im ready for Hickman to land the plane

I stuck to summaries & decided to skip out on POX this week. I may skim for Sinister, but don't have the investment to read all the details.

POX is the weaker series for me, and I am very ready to see what happens in HOX 5 given that mess we got in HOX 4. lol So anxious for a follow up to that.

Do you think we are going to see the future chimeras again?
I feel like they could still have a role to play. So much (almost all) of what happens on HOX and POX is probably going to be resolved during the next years, so maybe they aren't done yet.
