Also, remember Hickman even said he's gonna put his toys back in the box eventually.
Maybe try venturing outside this forum (which skews very biased), and you'll see that pretty much everyone knows that this is temporary. In fact, you'll even be able to tell that many are far from pleased with the way things are. It's not universally loved like some people think, even if it's interesting to see, it's more in the "what is this all leading to?" kind of way.
What I said was:
“mutants were still chummy with the non-mutant superhero community”
And that’s what I showed. The only things that mentioned “war” involving Krakoa were Zdarsky’s X/F4 mini (which is being written like Zdarsky heard Hickman’s HOXPOX pitch after it ran through a game of telephone) and X-Men #4 where Magneto lays it flat out that-
He said that in reference to creators breaking toys and leaving them scattered all over the floor for someone else to clean up. Not that he’s totally undoing his story.
Dude, this story is going to reach a natural end. It's like anything else: a temporary status quo meant to tell different stories you can't normally do. It will change a lot, but this is the story being told, not the end result. They'll probably be back in Westchester by 2023 tops, likely when the first MCU X-Men movie is out, and they'll want the comics to be more recognizable. But hey, keep living in fantasy land if it makes you feel better. Just expect it to end. All things do.
I'm done here.
Hickman's also said he doesn't believe in being destructive, and that he wants his work to be additive because it's more meaningful.
Nothing in "putting the toys back in the box" suggests erasing what he's done, as this is not a new philosophy, but the way he's operated at Marvel from the beginning. The Future Foundation wasn't erased at the end of his FF run, because "putting the toys back in the box" means not leaving it a pile of steaming wreckage for the next creative team, not rolling back the clock.
Exactly this.
I didn’t say anything about Krakoa’s longevity, just that it’s strongly unlikely that this “World War X” is happening. Conflicts, sure. I did underestimate how much Krakoans weren’t taking **** any more so I do agree that they probably won’t be chummy with the entire non-mutant community. But we see Firestar in New Warriors, Dust in Champions, Doc Nemesis in Agents of Wakanda etc etc. Even though Krakoa is taking huge steps to ensure it’s place in the world, steps that can be and has been misinterpreted, Krakoans are still interacting with the larger world.
sue storm is a karen that expects mutants to be victims permenantly, who gives a **** what she thinks when she has done nothing to ever help mutants. Superheroes that have not even once helped mutant issues need to stay quiet, had they helped there wouldnt have been a need for krakoa.
Also aaron's run is being ignored by pretty much every other writer in the marvel universe, do you think hickman is gonna care about mr celestial goo and odin x phoenix shipper? and even that article was basicaly him speaking off his ass, it was clickbait and you fell for it.
God put the x-men and mutants in their universe im so so tired of everyother shite propriety ruining my fun because of clout.

Oh I was wondering why this thread suddenly jumped in pages and I can't believe "WOKE comics have RUINED the industry" contigent combined with the "Hickman has turned mutants into a nazi cult of human haters" group... truly the ORCHIS of CBR
"aaron said" boy aaron said every superhero gene comes from a dead celestial, but I dont see anyone recognizing that, do you? or the vampires, or every other wacky idea he has shoved into his run.
once the x-men go into the apocalypse mythos conected to the celestials ALL of that will be ignored.
