HOUSE OF X [02] : The Uncanny Life of Moira X *Spoilers*

See. he has effectively forced everyone to let things go or live in their own head canon. It's brilliant. LMAO. He has created the ultimate retcon shield. I'm impressed.

I must agree with you on that aspect of it, because using comic book logic you really could have AoA be Timeline 9, and Timeline 4 is this Timeline but Moira wrote the comics and xcluded herself.

I think people are really overthinking about Moira's "timelines." These ten are only the timelines she is the center of. Alternate Realities like Age of Apocalypse or Mutant X are an entirely different situation. How Moira fits into those is interesting to think about, though.

So does anyone know why this story is being sold as 2 mini series and not 1? I thought HoX would focus on the present day and PoX would primarily be past and future stuff that bring context to present day. However this issue took place primarily in the past and picks up from the cliffhanger of Year 0 from PoX. It doesnt feel like the 2 minis have a set theme

Well from the way I see it House of X focuses on the rise of the Mutants here we see the birth of that idea and PoX focuses on the fall of mutants it just so happens that Moira's backstory and powers are relevant to both books.

I mean, what feats does she even have?

Survive a sexual encounter with Apocalypse? I dunno.

Wonder if that's the mistake JDW was talking about here: https://twitter.com/cracksh0t/status...60152723898368

It had something to do with the Krakoan language

[gambit2051]

The schism may very well have had nothing to do with their pre X-Men breakup and it may in fact be revealed that Magneto and Xavier were kayfabing ever since the Cape Citadel incident. My money is on the schism being Fatal Attractions.

I love that thought, definitely helps smooth over that severe New 52 Time Compression otherwise lol. How old was Proteus when he fought the X-Men???

Survive a sexual encounter with Apocalypse? I dunno.

This is the biggest feat of them all. She's the hero we deserve.

LOL

Man, this revelation that apocalypse has sex is so funny

I guess I don't see what everyone else saw in this issue. I couldn't care less about Moira.

It just came out, amid a lot of hyping. It'll take some time before an accurate picture, unclouded by hype, comes through. This includes me. My view is compromised by the hype just like everyone else's is.

His whole "survival of the fittest" thing is taking on a whole new meaning.

[Luckystar.]

I loved it, though I don't care much about Moira's reveal.

Does anyone remember Chaos War? Didn't Moira appear pretty dead there? She and Destiny also had a weird connection.

[Havok83]

One issue i do have with this revelation is that it completely rewrites Moira as a character and effectively nukes all previous meaning she ever had as an individual.

It doesnt though. It just recontextualizes her and makes her make more sense and relevant to the X-mythos

[spirit2011]

usually the most attractive and the strongest procreate

[Knives]

Well technically that's not true since Destiny does but Destiny also mentions that Moira's mutant powers basically make her undetectable unless you know what you're looking for.

And you want me to believe that characters like Kang, Beyonders, the Watcher, Cosmic Entities and Abstracts never noticed that an insignificant human was influencing events beyond their comprehension?

No way this is the hole in the plot but is all right. It's impossible to make such a radical change without leaving holes besides I'm more concerned with the consequences than with the explanations about Moira.

[Jness]

Maybe this series should be called "House of Moria X"

Maybe based on this being Moira's 10th life, it already is.
