This is the dumbest shyt ever from X-Men #12...what the hell kind of power is that?
EiDyUMCWsAAg9I7


I am dreading this X of Swords event based off of this issue of X-Men because it's going to a bunch of ridiculous bullshyt like this to make characters no one gives a dman about seem unbeatable right up until some deus ex machina at the end that wins things for the Krakoa mutants.

Excalibur directly leads into X-Men.

I wonder if Forge got any more of them mutant power cancelling guns on deck.

everybody else does :mjlol:


Hellions was...... I dunno what to say about Hellions. Res Maddie, you fukking b*stards. Her life is ALL OF YOUR FAULTS. Sinister being leery of Nanny of all people :mjlol:

I read X-Force late and got excited thinking Nate Grey was back.


I can't think of the last time I didn't read an event-centric DC title that Tom Taylor didn't write

Them deciding not to resurrect Madelyne is a total dikk move.

And I guess they have no intentions of resurrecting Empath either from the looks of it.

It really is. It's not like she doesn't have an X-Gene. She didn't even steal it.... like Sinister

that boy got problems.

Empath is an interesting character study. I kinda feel like anybody who had his powers IRL would turn out like him.

That's what I enjoyed most about the character and always wanted to see him as a bigger villain in the X-Universe.
He's a guy who can control other people's emotions but really has no control over his own based on how he has been repeatedly manipulated by women he "loved".
Plus his name is such a fukk you from Emma Frost because she gave someone with an inability to show empathy the name "Empath".

prolly why they won't res him :mjlol:


edit: and yeah, he's always been on my list of characters I'd make into much bigger threats if I could pitch ideas.

probably because they cant give her something to stay in line. its the same reason that sabretooth was never gonna be able to stay on krakoa and why mystique is hanging on by a thread

all they gotta do is have scott say "im sorry" and give her to Alex.

Hell, Scott doesn't even have to say it.

Maddie's problem has ALWAYS been knowing she wasn't Jean. Literally.

And EVERYONE treating her like she was "Not Jean".


The only REAL problem they'd have with resurrecting her would be Jean acting like she wasn't Cable's actual ACTUAL Mom.

i dont think that would be enough at this point. i think she would need straight up rehab to not want to just fukk things up at this point. shes always gonna get the not jean treatment. and being able to read minds of people telling her that wouldnt help. maybe keeping her on the moon with the other summers might help? but then again, i dont know if having her near cable and gabe would be a good idea either

it would be enough.

She wouldn't/shouldn't be on the moon.

Hell, Inferno happened as a whole because she wants to be treated as Maddie, and not "Not Jean"

It's the thing that drives her fixation on Alex and Nate Grey.

They treated her like Maddie.


I think the worst she would ever do is plot on Sinister or pal around with Illyana, since they're both attached to Limbo.

If Selene of all people can be fine on the island after trying to kill Captain America that SAME MONTH, then Madelyne should be res'ed
