    As for whether this was a mistake on Emma's part, she didn't have much choice. Xavier basically was going to tattle, and though I'm sure Emma could held something against Charles to metigate it, she probably didn't see it worth to keep it at this point.
    The fact that Charles was going to snitch is actually ridiculous cause he’s been avoiding resurrecting Destiny for HOW LONG with no excuse. He easily could have been like… we don’t have a time machine in the budget and Tempus is busy.

    Oh, it is rediculous. But I can buy Xavier being this way as well. Only he would think that Shaw is more of a problem than Raven.

    Shaw is wealthier then ever. He is also safer then ever on Krakoa. I think he is the type of character to see the bigger picture

    Mystique is a different kettle of fish and she trusts Destiny completely.

    You forget his massive pride and ego, it drove him to kill Kitty, you don't think it will drive him to hurt Krakoa? And even if he chooses not to go after the whole island he would go after Frost and Lourdes.

    I think the Kitty murder (Kittycide?) is prove enough there's still enough of his old way of thinking in him. The only thing that all this build up is leading to has to be with Shaw making a choice down the line wether he really cares for mutants as a whole or his own ambition. And I'm not convinced is one or the other yet. He just generally acts on anger first and foremost.

    I think however Lourdes is reintroduced in the present and his reaction to her will be a defining event to his alignment.

    Yupp.
    He will either love them for saving her and keeping her alive.
    Or...
    He will loathe them even more for not telling him she was alive all this time.

    My money's on the latter.

    I like my villains with a little bit of depth being evil "just because" is pretty wack. In fact that's pretty much what Wilhemnia was until this issue and people hated her for it.

    It could go that way or he can take time to consider the fact that the woman he was beating desperately wanted to escape. He clearly cares for her after all these years so this knowledge may have him turn over a new leaf.
    Or he'll help Raven burn things.

    This not why people hated her for. It's the concept of the Hellfire Kids in general people don't like. She stood out for the animal cruelty thing, true, but overall, the kids just seem so half baked and not very believable as antagonist. I feel they are as effective as team rocket, only without the charm of Jesse and James.

    There really should be a thread at this point of Raven's potential recruits given all that's been happening. I wonder where Kurt would/will fall when things come out.

    How are we four pages into this thread without anyone commenting on the Scarlet Witch's dead body on page one?

    The last person to see her alive was Magneto.

    Most of that speculation was done in the preview thread I think. There's not much in the actual issue about the death of Wanda beyond the QC having a discussion off panel about Magneto. So not much to say about it at the moment.

    I mean there wasn't much new to say Wanda is dead and Magneto seems to be under custody I guess a new thing would be that Krakoa is keeping the murder hush hush for now.

    Pretty much, the issue just wasnt about her. It would be talking about her just to talk about her.
