    I think it goes quite in line with Kid Cable.

    The children of the vault are post human after all, a lot of foreshadow in this issue...

    No, no; they can **** off of a short pier, nobody's gonna argue on that one.


    I just hope Storm was only talking in regards to these particular humans and the humans like them, not all of humanity, such as old friends and those she does/has loved. (I still can't tell to be honest and I hate that I can't. Linguistically there's too much grey area in how she refers to 'they', 'them' and 'man.')

    Aren't the Inhumans still based on the moon?? That would make for some awkward confrontations...

    I just don't understand how their all so okay with kid Cable when he straight up murdered the older version. The one they knew for years... I'm just saying at some point you gotta draw a line all this Barney **** can only last for so long.

    Remember Luz (Children of the Vault) and Indra?

    I know it's a long-shot, but knowing Jonathan loves what Mike Carey did during his Legacy period and now with one of the CotV members appearing, I still believe I might be on to something.

    Very good issue. 12 helicopters out of 7 peanut butter and banana sandwiches.

    Specific things I liked:
    • Serafina/Children of the Vault up in here.
    • Cable's room being matched with Cyclops' and Jean's rooms, and Rachel's room being matched with Wolverine's and Jean's rooms. Hickman is implying parentage with his floorplan.
    • Rachel's last name being concealed, because it isn't Summers or Grey.
    • Magneto's dialog with the mutant children.
    • Polaris calling out Cyclops' (formerly?) disingenuous bit about having a baby son.
    • The possibility that Hepzibah is hitting on Rachel, which further points to Rachel not being a Summers. (If she is not hitting on Rachel, then Yu made very odd choices making them move closer, and making the camera move in on them tighter, with each panel, followed by "let me get you another drink.")
    • Storm, Cyclops, Magneto, and Polaris working together as a team.
    • The Rockwellian mutant home.
    • Vulcan having a dramatic personality that jibes with his dramatic history, but makes him less of a bratty psychopath.
    • Corsair being a believable good dad, with his sons being believable good sons.


    What I didn't like: Yu's art in general. Makes better sense for something that's more gritty, like an old-era Wolverine or X-Force book. (Maybe something new coming down the pipe, but at least nothing in wave one.) The Krakoa shots were unclear and uninspiring next to all the colorful, clear detail we've been experiencing with it so far. The style itself is too unclear for certain shots, like Polaris trapping all of those Orchis goons in metal. There's a lot of ambiguity regarding whether she killed them or not.

    As for the idea of turning Lorna into the Summers brother girlfriend for the brothers to fight over? They did that in the Ultimate Universe having her date both and it rendered Lorna into not a character, but a pretty trophy for two men to lock horns over.

    The scene between Scott and Lorna was well done, but I did feel the Lorna and Magneto scenes was quite strong as they were working together very well though nominally under Scott's leadership something they forgot at times.
    Jean like Lorna need to get away from Summer brothers.

    I think it is clear that Lorna and Scott talk is about following their fathers steps and what they believe

    They are in the Grey Area, which is on the other side of the Moon.

    I don’t know but I like bald Raza, though he looks a bit too much like Deathlok.

    I think it's like when women say things like "ugh, men are trash". Most of the time they don't actually hate all men and think they're all trash. It's like an emotional generalization that has some truth to it but it's not to be taken too literally.
