    because 20 years have passed and progress is a thing, maybe you'll progress into understanding that simple concept too

    The X titles did start to tank in the late 90s and haven't recovered its greatness since then but they were a great read long before Liefeld came aboard.

    The title of this thread is misleading.

    I saw that title and had expectations... I was not disappointed.

    2000's X-Men was all about breaking the '90s and dudebros didn't think it was bad. The hate against the current era has everything to do with the fact that Krakoa shows progress and community and culture and pride. It's not a coincidence that most people who cared about X-Men because of the metaphor(or at least their fight for their rights regardless of how it paralleled to real world struggles) enjoy it, and people who just think of the X-Men as a cool superhero team like any others are against it.

    I don't think he wants the 90s back. If you want a reference, it seems he would be praising the X-Men if Cates was doing his magic on it.

    it's basicaly that they are uncomfortable the model minorities aren't happy protecting a world that loathes them witout any sort of spine, because I also see folks happy to get an epic fantasy sage and just like the mindless cool fun.
