    Do you think we will remember Callaghan in two years? Rosenberg has been busy trying to make him the big thing and he's still completely flat and uninteresting.

    The game isn't over. He can just flick a switch and destroy Emma.

    So are Creed & Mystique, but they still keep showing up. lol Lets see where it goes. Especially if Rosenberg gets a X-book to write during one of the Waves where he could very well continue using him. I imagine like Bunn, some writers will have that one character that they get to keep for a bit.

    I feel the first thing you write on the Wattpad for a story called This is Forever is, in bold and underlined in a circle, " Do not undo consequences at the end," and that he's just not good at writing endings for characters. I mean, Cyclops is a literal cyclops is already hokey, but undoing everything? That undermines the entire story.

    Which is why I still think it's very possible.

    How does the vaccine work when she changes to diamond? The nanosentinels got destroyed when that happened in new X-Men.

    Anyway Cassandra nova can be shipped off to the Avengers now

    Also, this story doesn't have a great deal of gravitas to undermine, sad to say. The deaths come so fast and ridiculous that they're punchlines and betting pool fodder.

    It answered a few questions, and gave us more of Sinister being far creepier than he was in the 80s/90s, and featured a bunch of many people's favorite character. Not to mention, pulled bits of continuity from Astonishing X-Men, NMS, and X-Men: Black together to weave a story.

    My problems with it lie solely in the direction of "why the hell is there six different people between penciling and inking this thing?"

    I sort of agree with you on her feelings. Its been years since their breakup and it wasnt a good one. He had already rejected her and she went down a dark path when he died. For her sake, I would hope she would have moved on by now bc it isnt healthy to still be pining away for him.



    Emma was fine in IvX until the very end when she went completely bonkers. I dont think seeint it from her perspective would have made that ending work. It may have made her more sympathetic in some readers eyes, but what she did was still terrible. She is in pure survival mode here. There was some of that but IvX had her acting on vengeance
    If any other character had been in the same situation as Emma and made the choice she did would people be sympathetic and justifying their actions or would people be calling them race/gene traitors? Hank was working in New Atillan to find a cure for the m-pox virus and he was derided and called a traitor but Emma is getting a pass. Is Emma gonna use the "I was only following orders/he was going to kill me if I didn't do what he wanted excuse"? Which other character could get away with that. But I'm sure the answer is gonna be "she's playing the long game" right!

    Exactly, it's not like we're going to say "Man, Chamber's resurrection has destroyed his iconic death."

    The issue makes me wonder. Maybe Emma is faking their deaths ?
