I like the preview. I'm rooting for you kwannon.
ALL HAIL THE HADARI YAO, THE OMEGA'S OMEGA, BEYOND OMEGA, THE VOICE OF SOL!!!! NOW AGAIN THE ONE TRUE AND ONLY GODDESS OF THE X-MEN AS CLAREMONT INTENDED!!!!!
...Until years from now where Laura will still be published and won't be allowed to really age normally so she'll probably be still on her early 20's and then her current age will be retconned to somewhat younger. Remember when Jean Grey's grave on DPS said she was 25? 3 decades later in Morrison's New X-Men Logan said she wasn't even that close to 30.
I have read them, thank you very much. Doesn’t change the fact that you don’t shake off a lifetime of trauma in a just a few years. It doesn’t happen especially not without continuous treatment. You want Laura to be heroic and empowered? Showing her managing and fighting through that baggage is more heroic and empowering than portraying her as if she left that shit at the last station. That’s just not how it works.
People are reading too much into Laura's request. All it is doing is showing there is something beneath the surface with Kwannon, something similar to Laura but different. It establishes a rapport between the two. Laura being curious about learning about how Kwannon controls her anger differently than Laura does not erase the stories about Laura dealing with it at all. It will probably only come up again in more exploration of Kwannon, not Laura.
We should see it over and over again. Look, I get it. I used to be adamantly opposed to Storm’s claustrophobia rearing it’s head after it’s been put to bed so many times. Now, I realize it’s much more heroic and relatable if Storm is managing and overcoming it every single time. Just letting it go diminishes her and that experience which was singularly defining for the character.
But how often does Storm's claustrophobia or Carol's alcoholism come up? The writers need to stop threading the same character flaw so much and so often.
