    Hi pandafarmer, what does it mean trains issues will come up in X-Factor?

    It certainly is written well, despite all the questions Kurt brings up, the end result, the final imagery, is definitely celebratory.

    This issue made me think. Until now, I thought that the whole 'X-Men have lost their way and are now corrupt' was fan overreaction, but I'm starting to think that there may be some truth to this sentiment. Its bizarre that more mutants don't have a problem with this.

    If that is what you thought saw, I am not going to argue with that but not everyone saw the scene like that.

    Add to the fact that he's a Phalanx (You know the big world mind devour society thing) and yeah...
    I remember on first issues of HOXPOX Doub spreading Warlock spores on Krakoa

    for sure there is something shady going on here

    No. Encourage them to reform.



    Oh, it's possible. We've got enough nukes to kill everyone on the planet. But, that would be insane because that would be burning the village in order to save it and because genocide is, y'know, bad.



    If Catholics today are engaging in such activity, yes, they should be stopped.

    That said, most Catholics aren't because the Catholic Church has reformed, and people alive today aren't responsible for the crimes of their ancestors.

    Well for me people can put as many sanctions they want against Krakoa I don't think it will work just as it does not work with Iran or North Korea. Besides, something tells me that humans don't care what mutants and their religion or culture think and do.


    The funny thing is that although I do not condemn the new mutant tradition at all with the mutants who lost their powers to join Krakoa on the other hand the way Wanda is portrayed in Krakoa makes me a little uncomfortable.

    Don't get me wrong I understand that someone like Wanda could not be treated positively in a mutant nation but considering what happened to her was something beyond her will in a moment of madness she is very close to being portrayed as something similar Hitler or the devil and that worries me a little.

    Funny you use the word human. I never saw the X-men more alien.
    It's probably Hickman's intention to remove the X-men of their humanity. I just don't find it realistic: their reaction to the strangeness of Krakoa is so meek.

    Hard to say, I'd have to dig around for the quote. But it's possible they will confront the morality of someone going through the crucible or wanting to have resurrection purely on wanting to change something other than power-rebirth.

    I think it would be a very important thing to read this day and age.

    That's interesting to see. For me, I felt the same way until this issue. It was refreshing to have Scott and Kurt have these discussions. This on top of the Warlock scene tells me that we'll be finding a lot more discussion about some of our more "moral" heroes feel about the way things are going. I'm sure once the "sipping the KoolAid" of Krakoa wears off, we'll see quite a few characters start feeling a bit uncomfortable. I agree we'll likely find this in the X-Factor book from Leah. Seems like the kind of thing she'd be ALL over.

    Not gonna lie; I was gonna say this issue sucks but Hickman wrote Apocalypse, Scott and Kurt in character enough to save it. Also I like that he's exploring the flaws of his immortal mutants plot. Surprised that Hickman used Aero instead of Prodigy cuz I had no idea who this chick was.

    8.5/10.

    I was going to make a dirty joke BUT I WILL NOT.

    It's very nice to see Scott and Logan being friends. I hated their post Schysm relationship.

    Hickman loves Sam, so in retrospect it makes sense that he wants to give his little sister a moment.
