Age of X-man: Prisoner X #4 *SPOILERS*

[spirit2011]

He didn't gave a crap for years until they were fucking. So romantic

What? They were on the same team and were good colleagues. At least he cares, different from someone

He didn't, neither showed care or attraction to each other for years on the same team.

Jean was off limits for him, she was married

[Mutant X]

Bishop spread the word and convinced the prisoners to start the riot very easily.
Weakest issue so far, but it was not bad.

Jean was off limits for him, she was married

Jean being married or in a relationship never stopped her to be attracted to Wolverine, she is not above that, as proved by Logan. never a thing but showed mutual attraction, unlike Bishop. She also met him before getting married and didn't felt anything.

Not only that but his crimes should turn her off. Jean hates when someone attacks her loved ones, like Xavier, Cable and Cyclops himself. Jean and Bishop were nothing, felt nothing, the only memorable development Bishop had should be a total turn off to Jean and it was rushed on an AU in a single issue. It is freaking stupid.

This was over the course of days and Legion/X-Man’s hold on their memories was waning.

[cranger]

The Bishop scene is off only because the setup in Alpha does not make it sound like some serious relationship, just a heat of the moment thing, so it sounds hollow that Bishop uses Jean's 'feelings' as a reason for something. What I wonder is if this scene is intending to play on the irony that she does not even remember him (which I guess makes it more sad.)

1) Dude, this is an alternate universe where the characters have nearly COMPLETELY different back stories and a new layer of memories. Many characters are doing and saying things that aren't the norm for them. And if you read the series from the get go, you would know that this wasn't the first time that Bishop and Jean had romantic feelings in the history of this universe. So just because it's new to us readers in one issue, doesn't mean it hasn't been on-going for them for a while. In this reality his crimes don't exist. Neither did her marriage to Cyclops. I don't understand how this is so difficult for people to get 4 months into an event.

2) Just because someone is in a relationship or marriage doesn't mean that they aren't attracted to other people. It's whether or not they choose to act on it.

3) Jean seemingly knows a little about what Bishop did, as seen in The Exterminated issue, but she actively engaged and worked with him in Disassembled. So she's chosen to be forgiving, which is something she is known to do. So if she has forgiven him for hunting Cable and accidentally shooting Xavier (which again, she was dead for), then maybe we readers should forgive him for the atrocious writing and edit he was given by the X-Office?

Point A: the fact that this is a mede up world with a different story from reality, should be a red alert about how genuine things aren't. Her marriage existed the writers confirmed it on reddit. (I'm not a jott stan, don't confuse me with that).
Point B: This is true and that wa the case with Wolverine not with Bishop.
Point C: Wonderful, im'm actually okay with Jean forgiving, not okay with crimes attrackting her, hopeful people don't mind if she is forgiving with other characters like Emma, Cyclops or Wolverine, those seem to be unforgidable.

it wasn't heat of the moment, we saw flashbacks to them having a date on the beach.

When Nate notes that their fingers are almost touching, it is clear that is not only sexual, they really miss each other. This remembers me of Pride and prejudice movie where the moment that Darcy takes Liz hand to kiss is a very romantic moment. Byt the convention of the time, they barely could touch each other, so there is lot of antecipation for such a little moment.
Bishop is confused about his feelings, while Jean is very confortable.

Yeah Jean doesn't remembers him, but Bishops doesn't know it . So sad

Things change, people change. aOX presented Jean on new set of circmstances, She is single and on same team tat Bishop. maybe if Cyclops continued to be dead and jean was on same team that Bishop it could happen

Her marriage to Cyclops did exist in this universe though. Zac and Lonnie said it in an interview. Before the new society, they were married, but he died fighting Stryfe along with Wolverine, Hope, and Cable, leaving her a widow, which didn't matter since they decided to move past compassion and romance or whatever. I guess that's why Jean had such a hard time moving on—she knew what it was like to be with someone before these new laws and way of life—she had Scott. I guess Bishop also saw some of X-Man's new laws as BS and that's why the two connected.

Other than that, you're right, this is an Alternate Universe where not even Bishop himself remembers the whole Cable and Hope thing, and neither does Jean, if she even knew back in 616 either.

Yeah, that’s what plot progression is. And no one’s woken up besides possibly Polaris, and she said she’s done it so many times before but no one remembered her ever doing it besides her. That’s a new development to the situation they were already in. Bishop’s conversation was what pushed Forge into pushing the killswitch. If we’re at the point where we’re irritated at a story for having things build up and billow out, why get mad at the issue where everything that’s been slow burning finally results in something?

I love when someone reads a comic and says there is no plot development and someone else tries to convince that person that there is a furthering of the plot....as if that will change a mind.
Its all pillow talk until the great Hickman comes to show us mere mortals what a new age is like.

Weakest issue so far, but it was not bad.

It's like in X-Tremist, it does not look natural, it's like "Oh, ok, let's tear down the system."

[KangMiRae]

Yeah, last minute chopping writing to make room for a relaunch will do that. AoX wasn't even planned, but they needed more time for Hickman.

[spirit2011]

This was well build. Bishop has been trying for very long time convince. Now that the defenses are low people saw it and Dani also helped.

Talking aout Dani, when the fight starts she is nowhere to be found
