I wonder how long this parental change will last?

Until the movies' reboot or until Marvel and Fox make a truce.

[Gordonstar]

Nah, until our earth dies.

Damn, the Remender I love is back and firing on all cylinders. I’ve not recognized him since the end of Planet X and to me Avenge the Earth and the whole Axis-mess felt very rushed and sloppy. But this new volume is just as eerie, dark, strange and tense as I want it! And to echo what many of you already have stated; High Evolutionary was brutal and down-right scary in this issue! As Nix Uotan pointed out, it'll be very interesting to see if Remender can 'evolve' his mythos in the same way he did with Apocalypse.

UA is finally back in my top-5 picks at the moment!

Yeah, I'm in full agreement on this. Issues #1 and 2 of the new volume have been killer. So glad that Remender is back in top form on this book, post-Axis.

Does this mean Adam Warlock is their brother?

Does this mean Adam Warlock is their brother?

Wyndham wasn't actually the guy who created Him, who became Adam Warlock, though, so he's at most an adoptive father, and if Warlock and the twins are related, it's as step or adoptive siblings.

[Habis]

Does this mean Adam Warlock is their brother?

Adopted brother, at most.

[Nix Uotan]

Also, depends on whether you take the New Men as the High Evolutionary's 'children' as well or not... if so, then it means Man-Beast is also another adopted brother as well Speaking of Man-Beast, wonder if he will make a return....

With the way HE is acting in this story, Man-Beast could even be a more Miltonian, noble adversary working in opposition to his creator's madness.

Hey, maybe that's who the 'Low Evolutionary' really is, if it's not actually a Jekyll and Hyde type split in the HE himself.

Rick Remender is a mouse?

No he's just a pawn.

Until the MCU stops being profitable or until Marvel realizes that everyone hates this change.

the comical thing is that both of the movie quicksilvers are friends IRL and support each others work. there is an article on newsarama showing them together.

so, this weird canon change to take away quicksilver's mutant agency is all on the publishing people. i bet the cinema have nothing to do with this silent war.

Well, not nothing... the MCU Quicksilver certainly can't be a mutant. However, I'm sure the movie folks don't care whether he remains one in the comics or not. If there's an editorial mandate in this, as opposed to Remender just choosing to troll everybody who thinks there is one all on his own, it's at most to cement the differences between the Avengers and X-Men franchises, not to phase out mutants in general when half the zones on Battleworld look like they're going to be from X-Men storylines. And even that seems unlikely, given the number of other mutants who've been Avengers over the years.

I really hope they keep Magda as the mother and just say that HE mutated them in the womb or as babies. That sounds believable to me and enough mutation will cause Mags to fail a (magical?) paternity test. It was always a bit odd that HE put them in stasis for decades on end. Anyway I hope this doesn't start getting brought up every time they show up in a comic now. Let them retcon it then forget about it, probably some writer will goof and call them mutants again in a few years and they'll just soft retcon it back.

One good thing that could happen here is maybe we'll find out what happened to Magda...

I'm kind of split over the issue. On one hand HE seems kind of out of character, on the other hand he's a much better villain now.

[ImprobableQuestion]

No he's just a pawn.

Now I'm confused. Chess always bored me.

The way everyone abbreviates High Evolutionary as HE makes the thread really ominous, like the villain is Volde-SHHH!!

Or maybe that Powerpuff Girls villain.

Not entirely true, I think I'm not alone in reserving judgement until the full story is unraveled. Not everyone is invested in the Twins and Magneto. We might be a quiet minority, but probably not an insignificant number.
