    Question The Island Nation of Krakoa

    Now that more and more pieces of Hickman's X-puzzle are falling into place, I suddenly thought of the map of Krakoa and locations indicated in it. Does anyone have thoughts what these locations mean?

    They better not destroy this like all the other mutant nations. I really want there to be a mutant nation.

    Questions Hickman Needs To Answer

    -What's the internet infrastructure like, since Comcast is worse than Sentinels
    -What rides are there at Magneto Land
    -Which one is the red-light district
    -Where does Tabby sleep, maybe she keeps Moira's sarcophagus warm
    -The election process or lack thereof
    -When will they set Krakoa on fire to make more burgers
    I don't blind date I make the direct market vibrate

    I hope they explore the whole island because this would be such a waste!

    Would they still need internet with all the telepaths and technopaths that they have on the island? lol

    Oh they'll definitely destroy it, but hopefully not for at least 10 years. There's so much storytelling potential with Mutant Nation.

    It seems to still be a thing in the solicit copy spoilers:
    (X-Men #2 has them defending Krakoa, one of the Excalibur issues talks about Betsy as "Captain Britain but a citizen of Krakoa")
    end of spoilers

    It's made out of WOOD from the Krakoan trees.

    -What rides are there at Magneto Land
    There will be a DEDICATED CHART for all the attractions and what level they are on their respective scale of fun.

    -Which one is the red-light district
    Definitely The Wild Hunt, I see no other reason to name it like that.

    -Where does Tabby sleep, maybe she keeps Moira's sarcophagus warm
    The Cradle, sounds comfy and Tabby is baby.

    -The election process or lack thereof
    Democracy is for flatscans.

    -When will they set Krakoa on fire to make more burgers
    The true endgame of the run, so not anytime soon ((

    I would love a book or 2 about everyday lo
    Life on the island....

    Bishop and his sister as beat cops
    Strip clubs, churches, and yes election
    In the real world i would be BOTH pro registration and Pro mutant rights. Xavier and Trask were both right.

    They don’t play softball on Krakoa because that’s a lowly human pastime; I feel very sure that Doug also designed a game (probably super nerdy and overly complicated) and had that uploaded into everyone’s brain as well

    I mean the mansion was good for the time it was in but the X-Men have evolved beyond it especially in recent years that I feel like a Mutant Nation was always the most logical step the only thing holding it back was Marvel editorial being too steeped in nostalgia and old status quos.

    Still I'm pretty sure we're going to see some form of the "School setting" on Krakoa tho we have those groups of young mutants Jean was herding in HoX#1.

    Black Tom being part of X-Force makes me think he might be the one who communicaties with Krakoa or maybe even controlling it

    Maybe just like the Church of Ascendency, the chosen sport on Krakoa is designed to make you never feel competent and yet never forget how important it is that you take part.

    Oh, hang on, that’s just sport.

    You want an appetizer of a great mutant nation story, take the time to read Ultimate X-Men by Brian Wood. Xorn even shows up and is a bad ass there too.
    You brought back Wolverine
