Does anyone else feels this last years continuity has been a problem?
The lack of consistency along the years hurts my enjoyment of some comic books. I love good stories, but Iīm a long (really long) X reader and what i fell in love was with the characters. So story is as important as continuity to me. I read X books to know what happens in the life of the characters i love, but if continuity fails... then i have doubts about the importance of keeping track of their lives.
Iīm 37, been reading X-men since 13.
Here are some continuity problems that pop to my mind, without thinking too much.
1 ) [ANXM] Idie and Kid-Apocalypse teaching Booby ti flirt and be socialy active: ... the comic itīs ok, but i canīt go over the fact that somehow... Kid-Apocalipse is an amazing dancer with people skills when he is a clone rised in an isolated world by Fantomex, or that we were shown how he deals with his destroy everything urges. Idie... since she was introduced her life has been problematic and a little alienated... when did she learned to blend in so well.
2 ) [UXM] Psylock and Sabertooth: he gutted her in one of the best comics i ever read, back in the 90s if I remember correctly. He litteraly left her intestins on the floor. How is she so happy to be aroud Creed.
3 ) [DOX/EX] What Psyclops did and Iliana hating psyclops:... not much to say, this is quite recent... somehow i donīt see her hating him for destroing the cloud. The hole Ciclops hating seams unsustainable.
4 ) [EX] Limbo and Magik: Wasnīt Limbo sucked in Ilianaīs body after it was attacked by Dormamu. That seamed important in the past, there was even a complet plot or event around that.
5 ) [UXM] Wasnīt exodus dead?: during AvX. I know itīs ok to have him but not even a mention about it?
6 ) [EX] Nightcrawler state of mind: this is not a direct continuity problem. But this bizarre nightcrawler personality dosnīt fit in his personal story. He was dead... now he is back. No big deal letīs make him crazy now.
7 ) Magic learning magik with Strange: i loved when you had the Dr. Strange type of spells performed by Magic. Those boxes that read: "Book of the Bishantee.. page 34... spell of... ". Gone.
Im sure thereīs much more. Maybe you can point out more.
