So is this the first time father and daughter have ever seen each other?

[mugiwara]

Poor David.

[JB]

Aww it's a lovely first meeting, look at her smile.

Love the Fall of Avalon reference and the art is on point.

[king of hybrids]

Are they seriously still insisting the Threshold are their ancestors?

Does having Kro in the family tree really rustle the writing pool’s jimmies that much?

[Milici]

Wow so there might be hope for Rusty and Milan´s return.
I thought Rem-Ram died in the Genoshan Genocide. Is that Ann Marie Corte?

[NewMutant]

Agreed. This is the first time I feel attracted to read the book. I wish they would do more with the Acolytes. The Fall of Avalon is actually a great Cyclops and Jean Grey story.

That'd be funny since he treats her far better than his brother or his son

[Whim]

thought that looked like Holocaust. this the Fall of Avalon story?

but uh why are Senyaka, Delgado, and Rem Ram there?

Delgado was dead before this. Senyaka I think was too and never went to Avalon and Rem Ram didn't join till much later.

Hyped to finally see the Acolytes do something but then this is in the past and not even right?

like did he even research the story arc he's using?

Holocaust didn't even have his armor here.

Charles was always a dogshit parent towards his son.

I wonder what David would have to say to his sister if anything at all.

Probably give her a fair warning about dear old dad.

[CoCoBandz]

Probably give her a fair warning about dear old dad.

When it comes to his kids his love does seem to be conditional.

Us X-Fans are like you think we don't know when different Acolytes died, Orlando? Oh we KNOW when different Acolytes died and weren't in stories cuz they were dead. If you wanted to sneak mutants who're dead into stories after they were already dead, you should never have tried using the Acolytes. You should've picked mutants from one of those enemy teams nobody cares about like....like...gimme a second....look, the point is, you think WE don't know when different ACOLYTES died?

(Fully including myself in the group this pokes gentle fun at, as I'm definitely in the running for Guy Most Likely To Tell You Everything You Never Asked About One Of the Acolytes. Like, if he tried to include Chrome in this story I would be like dude, wtf? And then I'd vote this issue best of the year just on principle and refer to it as one of my favorite issues of all time, because I'm down with hypocrisy except for times I'm hypocritically not. But I mean, before all of that I would still definitely be like dude, wtf, Chrome died during the FIRST fall of Avalon, not the SECOND one, jeez, read a comic you newb).

On a completely unrelated note, Chrome definitely shouldn't be in any of the non-previewed pages of this issue, as he died years before these events. I obviously have no grounds for being upset or disappointed if Chrome is definitely not anywhere in this issue. So of course, there's no way I'm actually going to be upset or disappointed if this issue comes out and as I expected and as it canonically should be, Chrome is nowhere in this issue.

Haha that would be so weird if I was.... (/unconvincing laughter)

She is 1.-a galactic empress, and 2.-young and maleable... she's useful for the cause...

Either everyone on the team is an idiot, or Orlando is actually going to pull some strange twist where they actually are the ancestors of mutantkind, isn’t he?


….He’s going to trap a bunch of them in the past and make it so everyone on earth is descended from Kitty Pryde isn’t he?

The least stupid option is that these ancient mutants are time traveling refugees from Marvel 2099, and this is Marvel's way to add them to the Earth 616's cast...

But the Marauders are still idiots for believing these prehistoric mutants are their ancestors.

[jwatson]

YES! I love that Xavier has a fave child. especially after the last few issues of lox. maybe it makes me petty but i am here for xavier fawning over his youngest child.
