    Also the QC's decision was such bs if your thoughts amd memories are the "soul" of your being per the HoX explanation then Maddy is her own person separate from Jean regardless of her genetic makeup.
    Madelyne didn't come to Krakoa by her own choice, all mutants were invited.

    And Scott not showing his emotions and repressing them is extremely in character since 1963.

    Read Spotlight. It was a good read thought the ending felt abrupt. It did make me want more so totally worth the buy.

    Alex IS going to be more emotional about it - he just went through the emotional wringer and Scott was still back at Krakoa. Proximity matters.

    Yes, this is another classic "Character thinks Scott doesn't care about something because he keeps his feelings to himself but actually Scott does care a lot."

    Alex is going to think Scott doesn't care about Maddie and is going to get mad at him. It's classic Scott.

    One would think the person in Krakoa that knows him the longest would understand him. Oh well...

    Liked snapshot too. Good read and writing debut.

    As for Hellions, it certainly seems controversial for Scott, even though he didn't do anything terrible. Then again, that's expected.

    With some people if Maddie is involved, Scott must be the badwrongdouche somehow, even if he isn't in the story.

    "physical embodiment of his guilt" weird way to call his rapist.
    It's really weird to attack someone because they are uninterested in living with someone who tried to murder his son, physically and mentally abused him and raped him

    Bolded is all he's going to be remembered as in the Maddie Saga.

    Mostly because no one cares for the Fraction Era and this way they can keep that black mark on him.

    Making it doubly hilarious, because it's both making a rapist into a victim (and I'm taking the "hilarious" very liberally, it's quite disgusting), and falsely claiming he abandoned her, she kicked him out of his house because he went to NY when he was called on an emergency (of which all she knew about was him yelling "but how can that be it's impossible" and that he was needed the same day in NY) after yelling at him all day because he was worried about the previous step of his entire race being put into concentration camps and when he came back she was gone

    Glad to hear that Snapshots sounds good. I couldn't make it out to go grab a copy because of Hurricane/TS Sally dumping a bazillion gallons of water on the city today. Gonna try and snag it tomorrow, hopefully.

    Hey gang, been a while. I got Snapshots today and thought it was a great book, but it really put into focus for me how little I care about the main X-books right now. I mean, I'm thinking of dropping the books with X of Swords on the way.
    Does it need doing?
    Yes.
    Then it will be done.
