They're having a moment of glory and they're basking in it, and I ain't mad at it.

    Agreed and if Magneto was really about the "master race" he would have let the Arrako mutants to keep attacking countries at earth instead of looking for a different solution that would be good for all parties involved, now they have a place for Arrako mutants to live, they can develop more medicine and there´s no mutant/human war on the horizon. Before this Cap America said to Cyclops the goverments of Earth panicked over the apparition of millions of more mutants from Arrako so they had a short ammount of time before getting into a war, that´s why Magneto said if they failed the consequences would be worse than embarrasment.

    Here’s the relevant quote from the article:
    Dan Buckley will remain president of Marvel Entertainment. He will continue to oversee publishing both creative and editorial, reporting to Feige.
    The real story here, a year and a half ago, is that Perlmutter isn’t in charge anymore and Feige is now in charge of Marvel.

    Of course, Bob Iger and Bob Chapek are the real bosses at Disney and Marvel. But when viewed as a creative enterprise, Feige is the boss at Marvel.

    And some users know what its like to be hated for being born a certain way, while others won't have a clue what that feels like but have the audacity to still feel like they are qualified to speak on it.

    Yes and that's the tension that makes all of this so interesting to me. How will everyone else react? Who will utilize the diplomatic ring, who will shun it? Will Arrako on Mars be formally recognized, and will the mutants care? This opens up so many possibilities and I say let's see how this ends with SWORD and where we go with X-Men, heroes of Krakoa.

    I'm pretty sure that this will only be a big factor in sword, at least not I'll the inevitable big final battle where Arakko is cannon fodder against (Phalanx/Orchis/Moira/Sinister/Any or all of the above)

    You’re 100% wrong. Just because an exec doesn’t oversee operations day to day doesn’t mean they don’t have the option to exert control over it. You’re either being purposely obtuse or you’ve never worked in a structured environment and are simply uninformed on the matter. I’m in charge of my business and I have managers that work under me, I don’t micromanage them but if I want something to change it changes. Is Fiege going to exert that power, probably not, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

    Meaning the Krakoa era was approved by Feige himself and these are permanent changes as they are made to be the basis for stories on the X-Men/mutants.

    But a certain poster is just unhappy with these changes. He is entitled to his opinion as for what he likes and cosabt like but obviously Marvel investing so much money in rebooting the X-Men let’s you know these are permanent changes.

    I just don't get the talk of supremacy when no one is being suppressed. That opens my mind to a while plethora of thoughts on do they feel they are responsible for the words or actions of a few. I also don't get what people are expecting in mutant books. Cap gets to be cool in his own book so mutants finally got some swag after all the complaints about how the MU turned a blind eye to them being killed off and they are back like bygones be bygones we are going up, but somehow we are stretching our thoughts in support because X-men we aren't reacting to something that isn't being shown on panel. Well ok.

    Me too I am quite excited to see the next issue of Sword I love how Ewing can involde all points of views in his story and in a title dedicated to diplomacy it´s a plus, that talk between Doom and Cap was great so looking forward to see what else he will do next week.

    I don’t disagree that in the comics that is what happened. Indeed, it did. I am saying that it severely disrupts my suspension of disbelief when engaging with this fictional story.

    Mutants are a master race. They can do things humans cannot and should not be living in a world where humans legislate against them, infringe upon their rights, and hunt them with giant robots if they have any power to do anything about it, which they do. This has been a long time coming.

    Bingo. Cap says the "entire planet went to DEFCON one" when Arakko appeared. The mutants acted as fast as they could when they could have told humanity to kick rocks and deal with it.

    Certain demographs feel uncomfortable when they see those who have been downtrodden for generations raise up and fight fire with fire.

    It confirms my point. Report doesn't mean Feige is his boss, but as creative chief he has to know what is going on on comics and about future plans.
    Buckley still repots to Perlmutter. So yes Feige isn't in charge of comics. He just oversee

    Exactly it was a problem that needed to be solved quickly because Arrako was not going to give, they are a civilization used to war after thousands of years fighting off demons and neither the goverments at earth would stay pasive over this so relocating to Mars was a solution.
