X-Men #7 SPOILERS

[JB]

Sweet, sweet Aero is back.

Hickman is becoming my favorite X-writer.
His Kurt is exquisite.
This was captivating, provocative, thought-provoking, beautiful, glorious, chilling, triumphant, and masterful. Melody is gorgeous and the Guthrie’s deserved this spotlight.

With each issue, Hickman is answering our questions while creating 10 more. Weaving a gigantic world for us. M-day is being addressed. The wills? Sounds fascinating.

This issue will obviously cause quite a stir and as loyal X-Fans, we deserve no less.

I’m so happy and I’m here for the ride.

(Nice to see my boy Ric on the island. And I look forward to the Logan/Scott baywatch giant-sized speedo sex adventure. Yum.)

Not a good justification, dead shouldn't be glorified

And what do you have to say for all the cultures that celebrate death?

[spirit2011]

To be honest, isnt a little irrelevant all the show??

if she knows that she isnt going to die, what determination is this??

I get killed by Daddy Apo Yassss ??

That is one thing, now, about the ritual itself, the xmen are going back to weird places but now is clear that is made on purpise.

I guess Kurt is the audience surrogate.

I laughed on this.

This is all not needed to happen, just another violence and death spectable

[Purplevit]

More cult things. Not a fan of it.
Don`t see how X-Men would be ok with this. It is forced.

[JB]

Oh my god, ICARUS!!!!!

I swear I thought of you when I saw the fam.

Vegan Daddy, great review. Please do this more often!

Survival of the fittest.

Apocalypse want mutants to fight for their pwoers and for krakoa.

This is so messed up

Again, I have to politely disagree.

This as another step forward from what we now know of the initial Four Horsemen and what became of them. It is the most paternal Apocalypse has ever been. Certainly the most "Fleshed Out.." the character has ever been. Easily superior to the catch-all "Boogeyman" of the IP's past.

Paradise isn’t free. You have to be made to understand and appreciate what Krakoa offers you. You have to prove that you’re worthy of it. That you’ll cultivate and protect it. That you’ll die for it.

Edit: Krakoa isn’t for wimps

Oh, I get it. And it’s definitely interesting, as I said. Just weird AF. Feels like a huge shift and somewhat OOC for many of these characters, which — to be fair — is to be expected when you do something huge like conquer death I suppose.

I now find myself hoping Kid Cable submits himself to the Crucible. So he can be reborn as the man he was and not the poon kid that he currently is! Ha.

The scene with the kids calling Wanda "Pretender" and covering their ears is immediately iconic. Maybe this is the best X-Men run of all time...

[Frobisher]

While reading this I could just feel the online show-outrage growing with each page, and couldn’t wait to come and see the discussion on here.

To be honest i still have my doubts on him, he seems the most reformed of all the villains yet he is the one that i think would eventually turn on them not because he hates them but because he feels that they would betray Krakoa.

I think he is going to be the one that push the Nation on front and maybe some arguments would rise in the future.

But i agree that he is in better shape than ever.

If that's what's actually happening...

Which, again politely?

It ain't. Look at the panels on this page, and ask yourself if it is a direct nod to anything? That thing that it is referencing? It was not, one lousy film aside, about that character's death. It was about that he didn't run from that death when it was ultimately about that he would live again. That outcome was the focus. Not his death or the exact way that he died.

[Vegan Daddy]

Yup, I had the same thought. We’ll be seeing this panel a lot lol

[mugiwara]

This is like a Frank Miller comics, in a good way.

With scenes like the one with Exodus, it's hard to tell if the writer is serious or is trolling.

And that's true for every issue so far.

This is paternal? I don't see anything paternal killing people just for a show

Which, arguably, is not actually what's happening.
