So the theory was right, it was Moira 9th live and she was the mother
damn rimrod saying that he can sleep at night LOL
Maybe Cardinal is just injured. Rasputin could have phased through the blast with Cardinal.
They could have BAMFed, or used Limbo....
Man, I LOVED it. We're getting such an interesting story with such beautiful art to accompany it... The X-Men deserved it for sure.
I also really like how Apocalypse was portrayed here, as well as the ending.

10/10 from me. I'm so happy we're getting a new issue each week pretty much.
"I wish I could live life five times over!
Then I’d be born in five different places,
and I’d stuff myself with different food from around the world.
I’d live five different lives with five different occupations...
and then, for those five times...
I’d fall in love with the same person..."

I think the Horsemen pulled out all their last stops so early because they knew Moira was gonna wake up and reset everything, so basically fck everything. And who knows, Moira wants to break all the rules in her final or penultimate life, so we may see Cardinal and Rasputin again.
Good issue. I am starting to wonder why Moira, with all the knowledge of life 9, would marry a human and have a child. Maybe Proteus is the answer to defeating Nimrod.

I think X³ has to be Moira VI now. It's the one where she joined with the machines.
No, Cyclobel existing - let alone ending up in the tank - wouldn't make much sense, but I think we can see Hickman is not thinking too much about the butterly effect - how else could Moira IV's life have ended up so nigh-identical to X, despite all the differences? Or, even more so, how come Rasputin had a soulsword? That came about through an *incredibly* specific set of factors. Or how could Sinister even exist - yes, he's older than Moira, but his origin is intimately bound up with time-travelling MU Scott & Jean (and Askani Rachel & Sanctity).
Sinister's not a mutant.

This was GLORIOUS!
...and Sinister still hasn't reared his sexxxy albino head to further frakk shyt up. (which might have something to do with the missing ML6)
