    Why?? It’s the Marvel Universe not the X-Universe.

    Her and Tony are wayyyy better than her and Scott.

    Exactatiously.

    You know who's been sidelined? Jean Grey. (Which I'm thoroughly pissed at...for all Gillenister's Phoenix this and WHR that...Jean is still fucking dead and doing nothing) At least Emma is alive and actively helping Tony behind the scene.

    Emma was in Immortal X-Men as a core member and was sidelined. Jean Grey had her own book.

    Sorry. Heavily reduced role. Relevant in the books before hand, now put in a corner of irrelevance as the era ends. I think that counts as sidelined.

    Because rather than do anything she's Tony's gopher. Gets him in the club, gets him Mysterium. That's it. If she was in another book at the same time, or shown to be doing something with the X-Men in this book, yeah it would be different. Instead she's only appearing in this book to be a prop of Tony's.

    A book in which she was still dead but came to the same conclusion she basically started off with answering her own damn question.

    And If Emma was in IXM right now she would be stuck in the WHR with nowhere to go and nothing to do waiting for someone to come rescue her along with the others at the whim of MFR mercy.

    Immortal X-Men is a 20 issue series and Emma was meant to be a core character from the cast. II adore Gillen but the only thing it did was save us from the trash we got from Duggan.

    And where are the other core IXM characters now? What are they doing?

    Destiny, Xavier, Hope and Exodus? Are all having character beats. Reaching their cummilation of their story arcs paved the passed 20 issues. Emma is jimmeny cricket.

    Ah! You all would rather she be stuck in the WHR with nowhere to go, doing nothing but going around in circles waiting for someone to rescue her just as long as she had "character beats" um...okies? I guess.

    You mean an actual story arc. Yes, yes I would. Jean is not a core part of that cast so I'm not sure why you expected Gillen to give her a massive role. That said Duggans writing is more flashy with less substance so despite having 3 years of multiple panels I can see how people feel cheated

    I agree Jean's been sidelined too with her return to Immortal (both she and Emma are just tools now) but I'd rather have Emma in the desert where she has the option to interact with other X-characters during the event. Instead she's been stuck in a corner with Tony not being relevant at all.

    I mean look at it this way and if she wasn't appearing in this book she wouldn't be appearing much at all.

    And what is the bad part in they having sex?
    Emma Will not throw herself at Tony she is having sex (if) someone she want to. If Anthony got form the Ew list to the to do list I can see why. In this EVENT the Avengers particualy him bad been outstading allies.

    So im here for the X doing the A
