    Actually that would be quite distracting.
    Ok you joke but I genuinely thought that, like, if not for Domino's skin they wouldn't have been able to even get through the air-space. Like they'd just hit this invisible wall with a *Thunk!*

    You honestly think there is a joke to be made out being flayed alive?

    As long as she doesn't wrap herself in bondage gear that continually hurts her and starts calling herself "Blood Shot", I'll be fine.

    And again you want to compare two different things. The X-men have faced human attacks from almost day one. They had nations being attacked before. Some of them were literally murdered by a suicide bomber in House of X. And the leadership of Krakoa has thousands of years of experience and knowledge.

    Also, again, no nation in the world, old or new, allows it's head of government to travel to another nation, specially an hostile one, without a single bodyguard.

    It'd be hella interesting if she returns to Krakoa in such a condition. Would she ask them to just kill her and bring her back?

    EDIT: This could be a trend. Got an awful haircut? Kill me so I can try another barber.

    But mutants and their institutions are supposed to be soooooo much better than humans and their institutions. Silly Kool-Aid drinkers, believing their own hype.

    You can have the stakes and still not killing anyone, just dont kill important characters or characters that are going to brought back in the next issue.

    What i dont want is feeling that this characters are just expendable meat bags.
    Then whats the point of death. If your not going to kill an important character than what is the point in the death anyway. Nobody cares if the unimportant characters die. If it's just to give another character some emotion there are a million other ways to do it. If you feel like the characters are expendable meat bags there is nothing anyone can do about that but you because no character in any of the stories have acted like any of the other characters were expendable meat bags.
    Don't let anyone else hold the candle that lights the way to your future because only you can sustain the flame.

    Or with power dampeners like the one that shut down Omega Iceman. Or with tactical nukes as part of their kit.
