    Default X-Men [05] : Spoilers and stuff

    Cyclops plans a mission to get into the Vault.

    If you don't know who the Children of the Vault are; I recommend: Mike Carey and Chris Bachalo's SUPERNOVAS arc.

    Cyclops, Storm, and Armor plan a distraction while Synch, X-23, and Darwin get into the vault.

    The plan goes smooth ish.

    But we find out by the end of the issue that they'be been gone for like 3 months ish.

    And in the vault time works different so SEVERAL years have passed for them.

    Some interesting tidbits about Evertts resurrection and why he was brought back with Skin. It was hard for him to see his once peers moved on and aged. So they got brought back together.

    Also I think most of Mike Carey's children were brought back to life. Even though they did die in their intro arc.

    Much to discuss.

    Also RB Silva's art just hits WAY differently than Yu's. But that's just me.

    Perro <3

    I loved seeing the classic Children of the Vault back again. Can't wait to see more of 'em.

    This was really great! You could just feel the weight of the mission and it was just so good to see Synch back in action again. Feels like this is just a (really engaging) step for Hickman's masterplan and I'm here for it. The data page re: his return and how they brought Skin back soon after to help Everett out was such a nice treat. And SERAFINA! I was worried for her the entire time, I guess I picked my side.

    I loved that too, but there were a few inconsistencies. Perro was not killed during Supernovas. And what happened to the corridor, the Children's extradimensional city shown in X-Men Legacy? Looks like Hickman skipped an arc. Luz, Cadena and Corrigidora will probably never return.

    It acknowledged that the children kind of hang out in packs. So maybe they are elsewhere.

    Also random sidebar: Darwin has always been that pale right?

    Hickman seems to be asserting his dominance over the X-Line with these past two issues.

    Everybody btfo this was great.

    Seeing and hearing Ev after all this time *sniff*

    The art and the panel work was on point.

    5/5 from me
    The Krakoans are EEEvil!

    THEY MUST BE STOPPED!

    So Hickman decided to just turn the Children of the Vault into his Ultimate Children of Tomorrow

    He even gave them the City

    >Fun issue but it felt very short. I realize Hickman is doing these one shot stories to set up future plots but it's getting jarring now. Each of these plots should be a current X-book.
    >Gorgeous art.
    >Why's Armor involved in this at this level? Is she there because a 'younger' mutant [Synch] is involved?
    >Oh, the Bachalo miniskirts. *side eye*
    >Dang, Synch has psychological issues? Perfectly understandable. At least he has Skin... and I must wonder exactly how far down the list Skin was for resurrection.
    >Seeing Angelo's correct last name printed always makes me smile. *more side eye at wherever Chuck Austen is now*

    I'm still trying to figure out what's going on with the whole "I'm Wolverine...Shouldn't Wolverine Do This?" thing.

    It was a joke. She was claiming the title, then told Logan in so many words he’s Wolverine once she heard about the ridiculous mission.

    Hickman skips many things. but obviously those characters exist. so Luz and Cadena sure if they returned with another more competent writer.


    I hope Hickman doesn't harm Carey's great job. I admit I hate what you are doing hickman. he returned to Xavier again despicable, I hate the hypocrisy that exists in krakoa and I hate that he is moving the Xmen away from his premise that it was to live in a worldthat he hates them and trying to change that vision about them, I hate the new Moira, and the question of resurrections makes me tired. I didn't know that so many xmen were so weak and easy to kill lol
    I only wait when Hickman leaves the xbooks, this ends up being a great wh.if or an alternative line type aoa. because I'm not enjoying the xbooks at all since he took them. and he is annihilating them every two issues. to bring someclones Because that's what clones are. taking meaning away from death itselfThey have already brought hundreds or thousands of mutants. They are no longer in danger of extinction. The resurrection protocol should be destroyed. that that is not resurrections are cloning

    But i love thecotv

    We’re still setting up future **** here, but it doesn’t feel like Lord Claremont range future **** where suddenly he brings a story thread back five years after you forgot about it. Wonder how long Laura et al will have lived subjectively next we see them.

    Also, Serafina had tremendous levels of butt energy this issue.

    Logan sending Laura on a hundreds-year long suicide mission is their greatest bonding moment since he told her she was gutter trash compared to Wolfsbane.

    They will probably die just in time dor their memories to be collected and resurrect on younger bodies.
