Context is king.
X-23's most basic surface level characteristic that any idiot should grasp: Stoicism.
I don't demand that her every minor appearance be a nuance in-depth examination of her character, but is it to much to ask she be written in Archetype?! This is storytelling 101! If you want people to stay invested in a character, you need to, at the bare minimum, write them such a way that they can plausibly be believed to be the same character!
Not intriguing at all. Ugh. Can’t wait till Hickman’s stuff is retconned.
Hickman has changed so many of these characters that they are just the same characters in name only. Moria. Apocalypse. They are u recognizable from their history.
What is Apocalypse going to do to force someone to accompany him to Otherworld? Threatening to kill them? He is acting without the authorization of the Council, he has no real or legal capacity to force anyone to do anything.
He can't even threaten them because there are mutants far more powerful than him on Krakoa. It would be an idiot to go "I rule because I am the strongest" when Franklin Richards, Proteus, Monarch or Vulcan can vaporize him without undue effort.
Because he can be!
(you have to read that in your mind with the voice of Apocalypse from X-men TAS).
Seriously, no clue but it is interesting.
I really enjoyed this first issue and I can't wait to read the rest.
I loved the set up, the characters used (Polaris and Monet especially), I felt for Apocalypse and it is good to see him vulnerable. Magic often confuses me and I admit that I'm not an expert on Otherworld and all that stuff, but once again I love all the world building and setting up new enemies and challenges for the mutants.

I honestly find it so hard to believe when people say the age of Krakoa won't last. With all this rich history in such a short time and so much for the rest of the marvel u to now explore and react to, Otherworld, the Eternal Portal, Arrako, the link between summoners and demons. It's like this has made just the marvel u in of itself a huge expanse of places. I can't see it never not being the status quo. Even if it fails it will still exist. The X-world is so detailed and more expansive than even it's mutants now. I love it.
