I am 100% sure Storm voted for the crucible,in Hickman's run Storm seems the most radicalised Xman( ignore Magneto) considering the core group.Since her almost Goebbels like pontification to Krakoans about ressurected mutants after the space mission she constantly speaks like a militant. She,Magneto, Xavier ,Sinister,Exodus and Apocalypse must have voted for the crucible, I think Nightcrawler,Jean and Emma voted against Mistique,Shaw must have abstained
Just occurred to me, no information pages in this issue.
Hello everyone, this is my first post on this site. Ive been looking for a place to talk about comics... A lot. I think Ive finally found it. And the discussion on this issue was great, as was the issue itself. But Nightcrawler is my favorite X Men so Im biased. Anyway just wanted to throw in that I lobed this issue and pretty much everything about it, and hope we get more like it going forward. Look forward to posting.
Considering Kurt talking about starting a mutant religion....I would love to see him go to a church and have an epiphany that all this with Krakoa is God testing his faith and he walks away from Krakoa even more commit to God.
It's going to be fascinating to see the reaction of Jean & Nightcrawler to being continually being outvoted, their measures passed over for more militant or pragmatic. My mind goes back to what Unethical Prime Hank McCoy say to Jean when she brought up whether he knows if they're still human or not. He basically pissed in her eyes and chastised her for "worthless morality". Very few on the Quiet Council hold morality and ethics in high regard.
issues as good as this made me wish hickman had even just a couple more pages to work with. he already stuffed a ton into this one. the warlock panel made my skin crawl, same with the stuff about nightcrawler and that tower....all i want is a little more time with the guthries.
oh and all that buildup of "spoilers" about the scott/logan scene is hilarious in hindsight considering, well, every single other aspect of the issue lol. all that stuff about the ritualistic death and rebirth of depowered mutants is fluff what we really want is more sexually ambiguous banter. great scenein terms of characterization just compared to the rest of the issue its easy to slip the mind. if you didnt read it as even a little gay though...honey. sweetie.

I don't think Storm would have a problem with crucible at all. She fought in the Area as a gladiator during X-treme X-men and she is a mutant who spent a long time depowered AND she still fought for mutants and was willing to die for them. One could argue Storm is the model for crucible though she got her powers back in a different way.
Don't let anyone else hold the candle that lights the way to your future because only you can sustain the flame.

About the Logan and Scott interaction. I can definitely see the undertones of it being flirting but I didn't see that until I came here and read these posts talking about it. As I read the exchange I chuckled because it sounds like something I would have said to one of my friends and I could have have said either Logan or Scott's dialogue (I'm a straight male) and it would just be how I interact with close male friends. I've invited a single male friend on a vacation (he joined us) with my wife and I because we are all mutual friends. To me there was no overtly or implied sexual undertones, it was just two friends having a laugh. I find it really interesting how different peoples perspectives can be based on the lives they live. To be clear I'm not saying any way one chooses to interpret the scene is completely wrong or right just thought I'd chime in on the conversation.
