    That's two critics of my online existence on this forum praying for me now. Thanks. It's a lonely existence, raging against the Krakoan status quo.

    Lonely… lonely… you're exaggerating a bit.
    True… my critics can be in bad faith because I'm not masochist enough to read more than the previews but this run sends me such bad vibes… It's a heartbreak.
    I try not to react… really. I will try harder.

    Don't worry we still love you even if you're the weird cousin.

    Dare we hope to hold you to that pledge? Some contemporaries here are particularly vicious against dissent and non-homogenized party lines.

    Here's an unpopular opinion to put things back on track: That writer/artist/editor(?) who I heard dissed KITTY Pryde entering politics and reaching the Oval Office in "X-Men: The End" was talking bunk. I would have liked that notion tried on 616 with Kitty getting a political career going, BEFORE mutantkind began going KRAKOA FOREVER and "Hurry up and breed yourselves out already, filthy FLATSCAN Mon-Keighs!"

    "PRYDE: The Making of a Mutant American President"

    Instead I suffer through "I don't care if I didn't see them depicted dying, SHE KILLED THEM" Captain KATE the shadow-faced.

    I don't want anymore women to 'go bad' in the tired traditional comic book way. At least in the X-men. The trope is really over. There are so many kinds of status quo changes that diametrically opposed perhaps the X brand that should be explored that the women can afford to bear the brunt of as they explore their deeper, varied personalities annnnnnd I wanna see that expressed in the books and in their redesigns.

    Like, yknow what? Monet could maybe go through a challenging Noir phase where she starts hanging out with the Mastermind sisters, gets really into Apocalypse philosophy, starts dressing in ethnic garb and wearing her hair in meticulous braids.

    Dazzler should maybe just get very very worryingly weeeeeeird. Mirror masks. Nightmarish weaponize femininity. Noise sets.

    A slovenly depression might overcome Pixie to the point where she's got zero fucks to give and hasn't bathed in ages.

Isn't that brand meant for detractors of Krakoa? Well I detract the HoxPoxDox, and I do it willingly, even if the run takes as long as Slott!Spider-Man.
    Krakoa as long as Slottspider-man? too much negativity

    I relaly don't think it will outlast Hickman ternure on the book by tha tmuch

    Because they either agree ideologically or have a common enemy.

    There was a time when Kurt floated the idea that anybody could join the X-Men even if he (or she) weren't a mutant.

    NOT. ANYMORE.

    That was when he was an overly romantic manchild obsessed with Errol Flynn. He knows better now.

    But, but, I liked our overly romantic manchild. I didn’t want him to grow up. Pouts.
    I miss him.

    Especially since one of them was totally evil to the point that the other recently helped X-23 kill her and prevent her from coming back to life

    -Krakoa is a sex cult
    -Scott would be the top in a hypothetical Scogan pairing
    -Jean Grey's X-men Red costume looks good
