The art is great, but the dialogue is way too “hardline manifesto” for my tastes. Seems robotic.
Torch first line is literally calling them thieves and Reed later says Creed inflicted possibly lethal injuries. They attacked in reaction to the fact mutants stole data from DC. Not to mention they technically had no right to arrest Creed at all due to the amnesty. But the main point isnt whether Creed deserved it or not but why the FF were so complacent abt their research being used to create a doomsday device that would have exterminated both humans and mutants if the XMen didnt sacrifice their lives to destroy it. Burying their head in sand and acting like they dont have an issue with mutants as long as theyre not required to help them = complicity with the people trying to eradicate them.
Captain America was literally created by Weapoon Plus whose goal is mutant extermination. Stark created sentinels and the Forge which was used to build Mothermold.
It's going to be interesting when Dr. Gregor comes face to face with Cyclops again!
Honestly, this looks pretty good for the most part. I'm usually not a fan of Yu's art, but it's decent in these preview pages. As for the dialogue, it reads like any other introduction issue of new series, a jump on point if you will.
People still didn't got over AvX. FF, avengers aren't there for destroying the mutants
For me thisis the mistake Moira did in all the lives
It doesn't mean it is Steve objective eliminate the mutants. Stark isn't the avengers and he is shady AF, but the forge was used wihtout him knowing

That's because they are thieves and it's nothing to do with them being mutants and everything to do with them being villains. You'd get the exact same response if it were the Wrecking Crew. You're trying to spin this as some anti-mutant thing and the FF have never been anti-mutant. It's not because they are mutants, it's because they are villains.
You do know that no one knew about space Mother Mold right? That the only reason the X-Men know was because of Moira's experience in past lives and the stolen info. You're asking the FF to know about something that was intentionally kept hidden from them?

Be sure to check out the Invisible Woman appreciation thread!
Anyone else think that Hickman did not have the Mother Mold boot up just to give a few last words and the X-Men are about to find out?
Well I mean Moira has lived through 10 lifetimes of mutants being massacred by humans and no non-mutant superhero every attempted to lift a finger to help the mutants, why expect they'd help if you ask?
Like there's a literal government agency whose whole purpose is to build machines that will commit genocide and where are the avengers? Probably the same place they were when Genosha and post-M Day happened. Washing their hands of it all and sending thoughts and prayers.
