    Yes, but that chinese boy who speaks like a mexican, has the culture of a mexican and is in fact a Mexican, will continue to suffer racism due to his asian origins. You can be part of several cultures at once.

    Franklin may decide not to be an active part of the mutant culture. That will not make when the Purifiers or the Sentinels knock on his door they will make an exception.

    The book felt like it hit all the obligatory notes and beats such a story entails but it felt like something rehashed somewhat. Doom's entrance was reminiscent of his appearance in the original FF vs X series. It would be fun to see a jackass magneto contending him unlike then. Charles wasn't there for the first rodeo so it's curious how mucb his inclusion will be here. Rachael also should be putting in a appearance before the series winds up given days of future present. it would be interesting if Krakoa could provide a cure for what ails Franklin if Reed fails to come up with something and should have been the hook used by the X-Men to convince the FF to allow him to accompany them and they should have been included in the invitation but then we couldn't have gotten the obligatory super tussling between the teams.

    Btw, I would have liked to see Franklin break his nose on the gate like Kate. For the drama of it all.

    I have found it more interesting than if you are human you simply go through it.

    Kitty's problem has to be different.

    what does that have to do with the Richards family?

    Actually, this is a good point. I think this is one of the biggest take aways if we're looking for more Krakoan clues in this series.

    In this case? How so? Franklin is their biological child first and a mutant second. Regardless of what Charles may think now and what Erik has always thought, they don't get to call dibs on someone just because they share the same generic mutation. They didn't make that life. The parents did.

    They're not taking anyone from an exotic place, they're keeping their son from going to an exotic (and dangerous) place without their consent or supervision.

    Erik and Charles fit the bill more.

    Absolutely this.

    P.S. Considering that mutants are often attacked wherever they go, it made sense to me to have such a large group for this trip. You never know when a Sentinel will pop up, yall!

    So that escalated EXTREMELY FAST.

    This was a Good issue, but damn. Not one cool head to actually talk. Nothing but small jabs at each other.

    The implication is that Krakoa is BLOCKING Kitty. It is not simply that she cannot pass through, it is that Krakoa prevents it.

    It's all fishy. It's all very, very fish. Sue snd Reed have done this stuff for years. And Reed knows Xavier, he knows that there's something Charles isn't telling anyone.

    Is Emma or Iceman in this?
    I was trying to do too much and not doing any of it as well as I could. But I've had a change of mind... though not everyone shall enjoy it. I will.
