What are you referring to? Xorn?
I mean yeah we all accepted this when they grew a new body for Xavier way back when but this feels different. They are “back-up” copies and so many questions. When did he start “backing up”? How does this work with someone like Jean? The reference to dupes must mean something. ARe the “Real” X-men still out there?
I would say she was a clone because Sinister used a different means and did not implant her memories. Perhaps the psionic make up of a mutant mixed with their x-gene is connects to their soul. As i've stated, anytime a mutant's body is restored or resurrected their soul and consciousness seems to return to it. Chaos war for instance.
In this case they are using mutant dna(sperm) putting it in eggs that are then fertilized by Proteus and Tempus ages it up. So these mutants are literally having their bodies reborn. That wasn't the case with Madelyne. I would say the inspiration for this probably came from Moira's mutant powers.

Is it the X-Men I wanted? Not really, but I'm onboard with this as the reset. I think there'll be a twist of some kind coming in PoX, but I can handle Mutants United for a while. When Hickman is done, I can already hear the next writer saying we've gotten away from the core of what made the X-Men and returning them to a school in NY as we get "back to basics".
There's an obvious "War for Krakoa" event coming. HiX has already positioned Krakoa's loyalties as more aligned towards Apocalypse than Chuck, Mags or Doug. And we have whatever Sinister's machinations for another big event. So that all sounds cool within the new paradigm.
This felt like the approach they should've taken with the Lights instead of randomly powered folks. Made them each have something that could've been an active catalyst to re-birth.
Not surprising. When faced with the same choice, Wakanda chose to keep their life-saving pharmaceuticals to themselves because they didn't want to help the world like Mutants are doing.

Aside from Goldballs new power coming out of nowhere, everything was good in this issue IMO.

I'm most interested in which mutants will be the dissenters. In anything there will always be at least one person not with the program. I hope it's not one of the villains who just arrived as that would be predictable and boring.
Be sure to check out the Invisible Woman appreciation thread!
I wouldn't doubt it. But i think based on this issue it will come up in a way that paint's Madelyne as some sort of abomination. They went out of their way to say they are avoiding duplicates for a reason and Jean's line about being the only one that ever was. Madelyne will be seen as a clone imo and for that in mutant culture she will not be seen in a good light.

I loved everything about this. Out there and crazy, but so damn good. Death was pointless before in comics, and Hickman just gave a pretty solid reason as to why Mutants can avoid that fate.
Also, really liked that "Only me that ever was." comment Jean made. Nice reference to Inferno I believe when Jean said that to Ororo after meeting up again.
