The question wasn't about them being mutants directly, but I find his answer here to be very enlightening on this particular subject as well. The fact that it's a ''hotly debated issue'' and some editors don't agree that they should be on Krakoa probably extends to the mutant question as well. Actually, it might be THE reason why some editors don't want them in Krakoa. I guess this explains why X-Factor was so vague as to how Tommy even entered Krakoa.
Anyway, I would love to be a fly on the editors' walls and listen to these type of conversations. Like, what exactly are the their reasons for objecting Billy and Tommy going to Krakoa? Do they think the status quo for Wanda and Pietro extends to them too? Do they simply think the characters are better off in a separate franchise? Is this some MCU mandate or something? Either way, my guess is that it's on the hands of the editorial team of Guardians Of The Galaxy now, since that's Billy's ''home'' at the moment. And whatever happens to Billy probably will affect Tommy by association (poor guy can't even get a story of his own).
Yeah, but he was there very quickly as a visitor and with X-Factor coming to an end soon, I fear there won't be a book for them to continue to explore this. The question to Jordan seemed more like ''does he belong there?'', which is a deeper question that would require more thought. Tommy has been to Krakoa, but would he live there?
I think, to me, that would entirely depend on his mutant status, tbh. I support him being there if he is a mutant because it could actually give him the opportunity to get some new stories (although between him being in an X-title and Young Avengers, YA will always be the priority to me). But if he's not, then I definitely don't think Krakoa will be good for him, because I feel like he is probably only going to be there for David and David only, and I think Tommy deserves to be something more than just someone's arm candy.
Jordan D. White implied recently that X-Factor was going to become something else, so I think that maybe the cast of the book will be ''transfered'' to this Magneto mini? But yeah, it's a pity that the book got cut short so soon. It definitely had potential to run longer.
Also, unless X-Factor was specifically cancelled for low sales, I can't help but feel like Leah kinda doomed her own book by offering Polaris to the X-Men poll. She kept going on about how she didn't want Lorna to win and how that would affect her plans for the book... and now it seems like we're seeing the effects of this. But like.... why even put Lorna up to the vote if she knew it would derail her plans? Seems like a totally avoidable situation.
