    Do you want to know the real difference between them and us?

    Until Now, we here never given a chance.



    These words should be written in stone.
    I know some will never accept this side of the X-men that seems to give up on the dream but the truth is that no matter how beautiful a dream is, it is not possible to escape reality .

    Oh snap good catch! The hug was even reminiscent except in that scene they were in the air! 10 stars. I also loved her moment with Scott. Some of us were just having a convo about their closeness. I feel like Hickman was like yes, they are close. lol

    Same! The fact that everyone is a "yes man" so far is turning me off.

Madelyne will be seen as a clone imo and for that in mutant culture she will not be seen in a good light.
    Yeah, that line was not innocent at all. A failed duplicated without a soul that was promised one by demons. It needs a bit of polishing and retconning, but I can see it. Even more if Limbo is going to be tied to the other half of Krakoa.

    Also confirms that the "pod people" are indeed the "best possible versions" of themselves. This explains Jean in Marvel Girl garb (pre Phoenix) and her behavior.

    And yes, I love that Hickman has built in a stopgap of "deaths are meaningless now" because it requires the "5" to be present. You better believe this won't last long.

    But you do know. They have a title. That is the premise of Fallen Angels.

    I'm really not okay with the all the X-Men being cloned versions of themselves, if the originals all died. I'm hoping the original versions are still safe somewhere and it's only the clones that are dying. And I know, we technically have a few clones already - in essence, Professor X is a clone as his original body died when being taken over by the Brood. Psylocke is...complicated. Not her original body. just looks like her original body. Sort of a clone. I recognized that many X-Men have died to be resurrected - are Cyclops and Jean being resurrected could sort of be considered cloned DNA of their original DNA, just housing the original skeletal structure of their body. I'd almost say Wolverine as well but his healing factor throws a kink into that. So yes, I'm fine with a few clones. But I don't want everyone to be a clone.

    The other thing that strikes me weirdly...all the villains are coming to Krakoa. You can't tell me there are not SOME villains that would be against this. I can't believe for instance that Selene would be welcomed. Apocalypse and Sinister, I still expect a twist there even though I know Apocalypse is in Excalibur. Maybe his speech was truth. But even if Sinister was involved in the DNA collection as heavily implied if not flat out spelled out, I still expect him to be shifty.

    It was still a good book, but I'm seeing some chinks in the armor now and some things that just don't sit perfectly with me.

    Well one thing's for sure, them letting Emplate stay there is a huge WTF when he's a mutant vampire who HAS to feed on mutants to live. Interesting to see how they're gonna get around that.

    I can't see any of the villains being an issue. They never were before. lol Outside of Sinister & Apocalypse. They would be the one to screw things up. Eventually.

    Exactly and it cleans MAdelyne up in a lot of ways and explains things. What can you expect from a souless copy running around. And it works there was always a part of madelyne that was detached and her only real emotion seemed to surface in her desires, be they good or bad. It would make sense she would want a soul of her own and would do anything to get it.

    i get the feeling that what is really going on here is that Marvel had plans for the Inhumans. but the Inhumans proved to be unpopular. so instead of trying to supplant mutants with Inhumans, they are making the mutants more like the Inhumans. normally, i would be very much against this. but Hickman's a competent "big idea" guy. so i'll give him the chance to tell his story without too much prejudgment.

    Mimic gets a new body and is team mutant, this would be the nice way to turn him into a version of exiles Mimic.
