Marauders 18 - Consequences *Spoilers*

[nandes]

maiming them solved the problem? Well I guess not.

And Iceman attacked them.

They were giving money to anyone who killed mutants in Madripoor - if that's the faction you want to say Iceman is wrong for attacking, that's entirely your prerogative, spirit

[Rakurai]

That was amazing! I felt like crying on this scene.

I feel like we should talk about that statue, those big herrings and the hat ........of all the ways to depict Moira

Xavier finds out seconds before Magneto using his telepathy.

But yes, the implication is that Emma is doing a power move to Magneto and Xavier: "I know your little secret and you can't do anything to prevent it."

If that's what that was, then she's being utterly stupid and poorly written. She gains nothing by this, and risks them taking drastic measures against her (say, having her killed off and have the information removed from Cerebro when she resurrects, or taking measures against her) for what, look cool? This sounds like another one of Duggan's stupid "look at how badass my female characters are, #feminism" that is just poorly thought out.

The plot elements and birth of the new Reavers were genuinely interesting. The Marauders have been really skirting the fine line of the "No Kill" rule, and now it seems to have come back on them. Bobby's confrontation with the man that he maimed was interesting. I don't know if I agree with Bobby's response - he was acting out of anger and basically seeking revenge when he snapped the guy's arm off. On the other hand, at least Iceman had something to do this issue. The scene with Masque at the hospital was really nice. Duggan has done great things with both Masque and Callisto. Meanwhile, I'm still wondering who I have to set on fire to get some actual character development or even depth for Pyro. He had more page time than usual, which was nice, but as always, he was just kind of there.

ok at least I'm not the only one

This issue was alright, but I'm kind of over the Verendi and Madripoor. The new Reavers were interesting, but I don't see why the Marauders would hold back against them, they are basically proto Homo novissima so I doubt the no kill rule applies to them. Iceman, Pyro, and Bishop got some page time, but they have almost no depth. The scene with Masque was good, but out of place. Duggan took the time to give more attention to a tertiary support character than he has given to some of his main cast. I doubt Emma knows the truth about Moira.

I was thinking the same thing! Is that really the only reference they have of Moira, it looks like the outfit she wore when she met Xavier in a park.

Question: Did the original Reavers appear as well, or just me ones?

Just new ones. They seemed pretty generic honestly. I think they could’ve done a little more to make them actually compelling villains personally, instead of rejects from Resident Evil.

I don't know if it is an intentional reference to that moment in time done by Emma & her trusty sidekick Kate or just a lazy artistic depiction.....this woman is supposed to be a renown Nobel prize winner geneticist

Sorry.. read this at 3:30am and was tired. Just looked over the scene again. Yup.. they’re like “wtf?! Just clap and try and smile”

I loved this moment too. Mutants being given the opportunity to heal.

Donald Pierce also appeared, but not with the new Reavers. He's now Madripoor's ambassador to the UN. At least I'm pretty sure that was him, they didn't give him a textbox intro.
