    Disagreeing with someone is neither "aggression" nor "gas-lighting".

    The agressive comment wasn't exactly for you, but for people that dismiss serious problems as a laughing matter.

    In what moments I said to get queer representation? I know Jurgens introduced a gay chaacters on his x-men run on 90s and Rucka got gay characters on Batman in 2000s. There wasn't a marvel editorial rule saying gay characters couldn't exist.
    A run can be not heteronormative while not having queer representation.

    It was pure lies. She was dead, you know she was dead.

    She is literally alive in the Here Comes Tomorrow timeline when she emerges from the Phoenix Egg and then ascends to the White Hot Room.
    It's not gaslighting when it is right there for all to see. Not emerging from the Phoenix egg in the present after the run by different authors is not the same as Morrison not establishing that she can't be permanently killed. She died, and then she came back to life.

    It's why her codename is "Phoenix"

    Doom Patrol was under Vertigo so that's where the leeway came from.

    No one was disagreeing that she was dead in the present. I was disagreeing with the "Morrison fridged Jean" part.

    Well he killed her for Scott benefit, so it is fridging. You said she was alive, don't backtrack

    I'm kind of confused as to what you mean by the run being heteronormative then...

    The definition of the word is "denoting or relating to a world view that promotes heterosexuality as the normal or preferred sexual orientation."

    How do you have a run that isn't heteronormative without including queer characters?

    Nobody disagrees that she was physically dead in the present, so there is no gaslight.

    The disagreement comes from it being a pure fridging, since when that happens the female character stops being a present as an active participant in the story. Such is not the case for Jean in Here Comes Tomorrow. It was established she cannot be permanently killed and she was key in defeating the run's big bad. Subsequent writers not seizing on the Phoenix Egg concept isn't on Morrison.

    Saying she's both alive and dead isn't backtracking. This the Phoenix we're talking about. She lives outside of time and space and can re-manifest whenever she wants. Or more accurately, whenever editorial wants.

    Everybody knows that Jean on the future was alive and that matters zero to the fridging. She still did stuff on future but it was limited to come back to present to make Scott stop feeling pain and accept he is a X-men leader. So it was all about him, just make it more fridging

    it is back trcking because eeryone knows where it matters she isn't alive. Future isn't set on stone and the here


    comes tomorrow future doesn't exist.

    By not having Gender traditional roles and beats, no fridging of female characters.


    Now i'm serious, I won't discuss this anymore. Morrison is retiring from mainstream comics so he won't come back to write X-men.

    Jean had been ascending to Godhood throughout the entire run, this was a natural conclusion to the arc they had set for her. it was as much about her as it was about Scott, if not more so about her. He loses a bit of his agency since she was the one who psychically nudged him to accept Emma's offer and change the future.

    Jean not coming back in subsequent runs is incidental to Morrison's run as they had no creative control in any of that. That future doesn't exist because Jean herself averted it, which was the point of the story (a homage to "Days of Future Past"). But nobody says DotP doesn't matter because the future isn't set in stone.

    What? Morrison had her hatch from the Phoenix Egg that Sublime Beast had and when she regained her senses, she ascended with the Quentin Quire looking Phoenix and the others instead of returning to the present. Other books said Jean was dead and the Phoenix was still around looking for a new host which ignored Morrison's Jean and Phoenix are one being plot.

    Again it is on the future and for the benefit of scott not Jean. If he didn't wanted her fridged he would had Jean alive on the present

    No, Morrison should be able to tell the story they wanted. Other writers ignoring what they blatantly set up with Jean and the Phoenix is not on them
