    Default Who got the worst treatment in the Krakoa era?

    Like it says. Which character in Krakoa got screwed over the most?

    I'm going with Nature Girl.

    Worst part is that not o ly did she get screwed over but based on Heir of Apocalypse, they’re keeping her screwed over.

    Beast is probably the Runner-Up, behind Moira. Rockslide had a reason behind the change - although it hasn't been explored nearly enough, and Karima and Danger haven't had nearly as big of a shift as Hank has had, even with where Hank has fallen to before Krakoa. While he had become darker and hypocritical in same ways, X-Force basically reduced his reasoning to "For the Evulz". And in a mainstream release, as opposed to something I would not even be aware of without seeing fan reviews.

    I kept going back-and-forth between whether Beast and Moira have had it worse, but I think Beast narrows out Moira. At least there was implications that Moira had been driven insane by her several lives. But for Beast Percy just had him gleefully driving head-first into evil with as much depth as a mustache-twirling villain, with only vague hints that something else was going, hints that were never followed up on. As well as having several of his friends tell him how much they hate him, failing at everything he did, and being constantly humiliated. And then Percy says Beast may have always been evil from the very beginning, only to suddenly change course by bringing in a clone with old memories.

    Moira also never had an INCREDIBLY deranged plan to send her mind back and forth through time in order to encompass time and destroy the universe to become a god, something Beast tried in that awful, awful filler story last year.

    Rockslide never turned evil, and I think they're just going to have him show up like how he once was with no explanation.

    I might feel it more because he's my favorite, but I don't think Cyclops cracks into the top 10 for mistreatment in the Krakoa era. Just another reason why I can't be sad that it's going to be gone.

    Points to Krakoa for trying something new. Double that in points deducted for requiring everyone to be written so OOC in order to make it work.

    Cyclops is my favorite as well so maybe I'm a bit biased but he used to be mutantkind's leader and basically the main character of the X-Men, he went through one of the greatest character arcs in Marvel comics surpassing both Xavier and Magneto as a leader of mutantkind, and the first thing Hickman did was regress his character shitting on all those years of character development and making him pretty much irrelevant and useless this whole era. Sure, most of the time he's just written ridiculously bland and is not kicking puppies or something but I feel like Scott should rank high because of his importance to the franchise.

    I feel like Krakoa was to Scott what OMD/BND was to Peter Parker.

    Most of this stuff had happened before Krakoa though.
