    Ah, that's my bad, meant the spoilers:
    psychic one. It's brought up as a side comment when teaching about telepathy
    end of spoilers

    At this point, yeah, I'm leaning towards that as well.

    Yep, agree with you there. This is exactly the stuff I hoped would be avoided. I don't care who is with who as long as none of the characters are thrown under the bus for it.
    Ooooooooh. Would I also be correct in assuming that the "subtext" (lol) of the line/exchange is that setting up psychic sex rooms (or whatever) is the woooorst thing ever, therefore we'll never directly address transgressions of the actual flesh?

    Well, it establishes that spoilers:
    it's a very private affair and for Jean it wasn't fun for someone she loved to have spent their nights in secret somewhere else
    end of spoilers . So, I guess depending on how you might interpret that, maybe? Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if the second part of your post comes up in some way, lol.

    Well, it couldn't, now, could it? If psychic affairs are (re)established as this super hurtful thing, then there's no point directly addressing anything else, right?

    You know, the x-office bringing back the whole 'It only counts when my feelings are being hurt' thingy was inevitable because it is absolutely in-character, but this just feels so random, lol. Like, what, Quentin Quire of all people brought it up?

    Yeah, it's rather random. spoilers:
    Quire mentions having consensual fun with Phoebe at night and Jean brings it up
    end of spoilers

    I don't know why she mentioned it, but she did.

    I'm pretty sure Jean was trying to say "speaking from experience. Not a good idea." Lol

    Scott's current affair-that-isn't-technically-cheating, maybe? Foreshadowing and all that.

    Oh, what the heck, I'll play nice and let it slide. For all we know, Scott was dreaming about another woman/man so loud he couldn't even hear Jean.

    Why divulge something like that? To me that's an example of seeing the writer in the work.
    Does it need doing?
    Yes.
    Then it will be done.

    These questions should've been raised from the very beginning. Good grief.

    The issue itself was pretty good, but it's too little to late to sell me on this. I won't be picking it up.
    Does it need doing?
    Yes.
    Then it will be done.

    The X-Books for the better part of the last decade were kept afloat by sinking Scott. I don't know what book the dude writes but maybe it isn't faring too well.

    Old habits die hard, I suppose.

    Jean had more presence in death than Cyke in Hickman's entire run.
    Hickman succeeded where 2010s Marvel didn't: make the X-Men villainous and irrelevant.
    Hilariously, the X-Men have now fully embraced mutant supremacy and racism against humans.

    Yeah, that's a good point.

    I know it's nice to see Scott spending time with his family, but let me ask: does it make sense to y'all that Scott would willingly work with Sinister and Apocalypse?

    Yes.
    Then it will be done.

    I can believe it if someone actually bothered to write the transition between Rosenbubble's end and Hickman's start. But doing so means Hickman and his ilk actually have to write / can't cherry pick continuity as much as they want.

    As things are-- yeah, I can still believe it. The current run are just a bunch of OCs anyways; they'll get completely overwritten ten years from now --if Marvel Comics is still alive, anyways.

    As far as we know, Scott doesn't know about the Moira stuff - so why has Scott stepped back under Xavier's direction after everything that happened the last few years? Why would he work under Sinister and Apocalypse, who have done so much to hurt him and his loved ones, done so much to ruin his life?

    I know that WoX is supposed to give us answers, but I'm not convinced that these are the genuine articles. I actually laughed when I read Giant-Size X-Men: Storm and she went on an entire quest to prevent her death from an advanced form of the Legacy Virus - I mean why? What's the point? Just respawn. SMH.

    Yes.
