    Maybe she did resist but chose to help the people around her, deciding that she was a liability in combat with her powers on the fritz.

    Thanks for sharing that! She seems to be quite a go-to writer for Marvel at the moment so I'm curious to see how she fares with Realm of X and also find out if she's got any more X-work lined up.

    Alternative answer: Too busy thinking about Hellion to focus on building a defense. Their interactions during House of M are burned into her subconscious and she longs to see him again.
    Maybe if Hellion had distracted Moira instead of Magik they wouldn't be in this spot.

    Looked like she wasn't in control when she was carrying Curse through. The red triangle stuff is cool but weirdly applied.

    You know this looks like it’s probably going to be more fantasy adventure fare but it would be interesting if they ever decided to tackle the intersection between white supremacists and horse mythology in some way.

    Which would also explain why she had enough mental controll to pick up Curse and carry her away, while everyone else was acting like a zombie.

    Also it would be quite odd if trained and experienced super heros and villains, of whom two have psy powers themself, would be so easily commanded by Xavier, while Curse, a little girl with no related power is clearly unaffected.

    So it would make more sense if they all were unaffected for personal reasons, but Magik simply understood Xavier's command as signal to retreat, especially since her powers didn't work right with the others following her lead.

    I think the simpler answer is Curse was unaffected due to having status effect: Editorial Protection. Explains everything about that character.

    There is also lack of proper coordination or the difference between exact plans and general outlines.

    Like back during Decimination, where the end of House of M revealed that Iceman got depowered, but then the aftermath issue quickly revealed "nope that was just in your head Bobby".

    Or when one writer would show depowered mutants simply becomming normal humans again regardless of their previous shape, while other writers went with the idea that they would be trapped in their forms, but no longer able to sustain it (seemingly depending on what ever they were order by the editor to play up the missery or not).

    Not to forget the issue were Beast learns that the entire multiverse and all of past and future got depowered and the X-gene erased, so there was no way to bring back the X-gene, but then every other writer completely ignored it and showed the past, future and multiverse with mutants just fine.

    So in this case it might be that Gala writer only got the memo to 1. show them using a portal so they end up in Vanaheimr and 2. Curse is angry and curses Xavier, while the Realm of X writer has a more precise explanation in mind.

    Says she has psychic resistance, and not he old type that everyone like Wolverine or Mystique had, but something current enough to still shut out Chuck.

    Hopefully mind rape less people. Mind you she might have done Charles already so she’s starting with 1 on the board.

    Will be interesting how this writer interprets Marrow given that thanks to her sporadic on/off appearances since she got kicked off the X-men, her characterization has become all over the place, with seemingly every writer picking from a different stages in her pre-X-men, X-men and post-X-men appearances during this era.

    Same goes for her powers, since writers don't seem to know how much controll she has over her growths, how strong or elaborate her constructs are and if she has a healing factor or not?

    Sometimes she can headbutt planes mid flight and cover herself in armor, sometimes she gets mocked for being nothing but an angry woman with self made knives.

    How very convinient for a story that made everyone involved look like idiots or parodies of themself. Thanks for the info.

    This is the book I'm most looking forward to during Fall of X. Can't wait to read.
