    There’s just really no way to retcon that into anything acceptable. Editorial control was clearly asleep at the wheel when that made it through to publication. About the only thing you can say is, well, yes, Mr. Sinister is an evil villain.

    I wish they'd add in a lil more his freaky Flat Top and Gapped Fang look, but I'm digging the char and his beats a lot. Although he's better when there's a powerful straight (no pun intended!) Char to play off

    Also, historically, a lot of people working for Nazi Germany were opportunists who didn't really believe in the ideology, but that doesn't make them less Nazists than the "true believers".

    I mean I never got the impression that Sinister like hates Jewish people or anything but he definitely wouldn't have issues with a guy like Mengele

    True enough. A lot of them were just in it for personal ambition and/or an excuse to vent their sadism, which would in some ways make them even worse compared to the so-called "true believers." Sinister being in that category would definitely make him much eviler than would be palatable for a lot of people. Then we have some versions of the Red Skull, Marvel's chief Nazi supervillain, that renounced Nazism, not because they thought it was evil, but because they thought the Nazis were thinking too small, so disconnecting a villain from the Nazis doesn't necessarily make them more sympathetic or acceptable. That much is indeed true.

    As we all have mostly guessed this new event seems to be an AU

    Yes, it's a AU. I guess that's the endgame with the Moiras that Sinister has

    Is this tied into S.O.S? or completely different?

    I'm thinking this is where they'll go nuts with chimaeras and alternate realities. Looking forward to hearing more next week.

    I don't know if I can really muster enthusiasm for another line-wide AU crossover, but I guess the stuff with Sinister will finally come to a head.

    So we've got...Magic Demon Hank attacking Sinister at a space base with Cable? Doesn't he look exactly like he did in that evil future X-Men team Bendis came up with?

    Evil Storm?

    Odin and a new version of Captain America? I don't think that's Steve.
