I hate that writing of Pietro. His Light Bright uniform is only unpleasant to look at.
but I can never unread that writing.

Welcome to the X-Men after Remender watches the "Days of Future Past" movie!

Agreed, it's atrocious. Pietro's speech pattern is very formal, even haughty. He would not be using "'em's" and "I know, right?". My guess is the REAL Pietro would ridicule anyone who did, too.

I guess he took writing lessons from Bendis?

God help us.

[Habis]

Wasn't there another replica Earth introduced in Miller's Fantastic Four? Nu-Earth or something?

Do all of these Earths just share the same orbit around the Sun?

Yep, but Nu-Earth wasn't ever called Counter-Earth. I think it is in another star system.

Pietro can joke and be a smartass, but he holds himself together around those he does not know. He will make fun of "bad guys", but he's a CLEVER smartass. Not a dumb smartass.
I can appreciate DoFP Quicksilver, but I don't want him in my books.

[bango]

I hope this is a Bova centric story.

Yes, Quicksilver is not 17 years old, either. Or at least he never used to be. I'm...I'm not quite sure what he's supposed to be anymore.

This is the Quicksilver I know, in battle.

I didnt read any haughty, formal speech inflection in that panel.

[Kurolegacy]

I feel absolutely nothing but contempt about this story arc. It's literally another of those cases of telling a story that nobody but them actually asked for. Whether they like it or not, it's basically been universally accepted in every medium but the MCU that Wanda and Pietro are Magneto's kids. This kind of change is a terrible way to start off the new volume of the book.

[Park Slope Pixie]

Isnt the MCU the only medium that should matter?

[Star_Jammer]

So the New Men call Quicksilver "pink sack"...

What do they call black people?

"Brown sacks"...?

*shudder*

Oh, Rick Remender, you've done it again.

They call humans "pink sacks," which I can't help but read into as Remender only thinking of white straight males when it comes to all of humanity, once again.

No, they called ..."the two humanoid types from that garbage can on the other side of the sun" (which I would believe refers to Wanda and Pietro, since they're on Counter-Earth) "pink sacks".

[Emma's Midriff]

I'm going to call Wanda "Dumpster Baby" from now on.

[Star_Jammer]

I'm going to call Wanda "Dumpster Baby" from now on.

You promise?

Here's something else to consider: since English is Pietro's second language, I think it makes more sense for him to have a "formal" way of speaking. English is my second language, and I've been speaking it for a LOOOONG time, even so I still have an accent. With my accent, I don't feel comfortable saying things like "ya" for "you" or "'em" for "them".
Also, mimicking bad guys like that is more of a thing Spider-man would do. Spider-man has that goofy / slapstick humor whereas Pietro is a lot more sarcastic and dry...It's a different type of humor which I'm not really seeing here.
