House of X - 01 Or How the mutants got their groove back *spoilers*

[ExodusCloak]

I'd like to see a mutant leader who is based on Mandela. He was willing to fight when necessary (he served 27 years in jail for it). When the tables were turned, he didn't subjugate his former oppressors. He is the perfect middle ground between Xavier and Magneto. Xavier's dream was outdated from the start imo, pacifism and turning the other cheek has never worked, you get walked over. Martin Luther preached nonviolence, they still killed him in cold blood.

I'd like to see one based on Steve biko

Is the krakoa language Hickman’s creation or was it in the mythos before?

New to Hickman's run.

[Havok83]

Why create a new nation Krakoa and not use Genosha?

bc no one but mutants can claim ot own it. Genosha has too much negative political history

[JKtheMac]

Was this around the same time he was writing Journey into Mystery?

Yes but there is a big difference. One was a book renowned for continuity and one was an excuse to cut loose.

JiM let him cut loose? I do think he was on there for more issues and he got to continue Loki in YA.

That isn't what they meant by cut loose. What they mean is that he was given free reign to do as he pleased.

I loved it but I'm dreading what fate awaits our Mutants. So many questions little answers. My mind screams MORE MORE MORE MORE

Who’s excited for powers of x 1?

Who’s excited for powers of x 1?

I am.
I want to see how it connects back to HoX 01.

Anywayyyyy yeah that “Jean and Scott” thing was definitely a fakeout. That’s Vulcan.

That's what I've been saying! They're not plant-dupes, Krakoa resurrects Mutants. And the redhead is probably Rhane.

I think that everyone has been focusing on the obvious “this is so strange” that the twist will be that intentions aren’t as malicious as originally interpreted. Things that have been pointed out as strange like Jean reverting to Marvel Girl or Cyclops in new duds or unexplained resurrections aren’t ending with HOXPOX, we see that Dawn of X titles show that these changes will stick.

Rahne makes perfect sense. Without them speaking and just getting a quick glimpse, Rahne and Vulcan would give off an appearance of Jean and Scott. Maybe Rahne was one of the mandated deaths and that’s why there was so much emphasis above all other deaths in Rosencanny, because we needed to set up a bit of a mystery.

Larocca made her look like Jean in his run despite her having short hair in Dead Souls

I completely agree! That's been why I haven't bought the pod-people theory.

Say it IS the case? Are we NOT finding out during Hox and PoX? Or we are, and then we follow the continued adventures of the plantelgänger X-Men? Or they're exposed and the originals are restored, and then they keep using Krakoa, and wearing the outfits the dupes wore?

Clearly stuff's going on on multiple levels, on multiple fronts, but the "Xavier MUST be the Maker!" and "those MUST be pod-people" ideas never really clicked for me. They're obvious, and yet non-sensical if looked at with all the information we have access to, I think.

Good point! That could absolutely be the redhead at the beginning of HoX.
