    I get the feeling Dthirds3's description of the comic is funnier than the comic itself lol.

    That's definitely the case with X-Men Green.

    That’s actively worse but I’m pretty sure more than five people in-universe know about Omega Red’s rapes, unlike the Sinister Nazi deal

    Edit: and yeah, Hybrid is arguably right. Even if the Omega Red thing is from a place of “We don’t trust you but you get one extra chance” you got Mastermind in X-corps and Dakken in X-factor. I can’t remember if Gorgon did it as well since a lot of the stuff he’s done either gets overshadowed by the Hydra parts or the feeding a kid to pigs parts

    But didn’t Omega Red already get his extra chance? If I remember correctly he was spying on Krakoa for the vampires waaaay before Beast tampered with his body and he started spying for Russia. Not saying that Beast’s “let’s permanently erase him” shtick was in the right, but they definitely don’t need to be rewarding old boy or rushing to get him resurrected.

    There are just a whole bunch characters on in the island who somehow get rehabilitation rights despite being amoral monsters.

    I enjoy my villains, but giving them power and completely ignoring their crimes is one of the things that have bothered me most with Krakoa.

    Why the QC think putting them all together on an island around innocent people and children is smart, is lul. I kinda wish we'd seen Hickman's plan for the island to self-implode, because I'm surprised it's last this long.

    As for the actual book, this is the most incompetent version of X-Force yet. Where is the X-Force from Craig & Kyle, that team got sh!t done.

    You know, if Krakoa weren't destroyed (which it will, as soon as sales become worse) and survived one or two centuries, it would become a seriously weird place, with all these bored immortals getting used to everything being allowed and suffering no consequences, pushing the limits of what is acceptable a bit further every year, until they are eating their own babies for a thrill...

    On the plus side, that'll fix the abandoned baby problem.

    Nope, because they would resurrect the babies... that's what would make it acceptable....

    They are already killing themselves for a thrill because they know they will be brought back... the next step is to kill others for the lulz...

    From the start, these X-books are disturbingly ok with rehabilitating a lot of criminals…

    There is no ideal anymore in these comics: the mutants have peace, power… all what they asked for. What remains? Being decadent.

    Thank Jebus I have X-Men Red to get me through this current era, and I can safely ignore books like X-Force.
