Her thing with Vision suddenly makes so much more sense.One of the upcoming Red Issues is going to reveal Scarlet Witch was actually a robot in a hollow plastic body.
Yeah her character and still being marvel girl makes more sense that way
Hickman is too beholden to continuity for that mistake
I can't see that header (or those panels in general) without thinking about that A Star is Born meme.
the fk u say to me
that scene with logan and nightcrawler made me tear up
I dunno I can't imagine Hickman is dumb enough to enact clone saga 2.0
Yes. Wanda claimed to be a mutant (while COMPLETELY shitting on mutantkind in HOM) until revealed to not be a mutant at all during *sigh* Axis.
Fun fact: squirrel girl was also de-confirmed to be a mutant not long after, but this was never followed up with an explanation
I mean, we remember what he did to cykes at the end of time runs out, right?
Another great issue but I must say I can't wait for powers, I like the full mystery time line issues more than the more traditional stories when clearly they don't matter. Sure everyone died... so, we know they are still coming back. Also it does the whole since these deaths don't really matter let's have them die in a really basic way. The X-men have battled space gods, traveled through time, fought the most powerful mutants and survived all of it. But a few scientists and guards in a space station and they all die? Which is why so many think they are weak clones.
Now it has some amazing moments, the wolverine stuff is incredible. But I'm ready to get back to the mystery and time travel goodness.

Eh...husk and archangel died in an explosion that shredded a chunk of space station and their starship. This wounded everyone else.
Mystique was blown out of an airlock into deep space.
Monet got killed from being swarmed with armed guards in power suits
Kurt and Logan teleported unprotected into space and were incinerated by solar radiation.
Cyclops got shot with nano sentinels that shut down his powers then blasted in the skull
Jean got torn apart by a half dozen gigantic sentinel drones with more coming.
None of this screams "clone." Way less killed way more Xmen during Rosenbergs run.
Come on, a team of A list X-men are going to die to a bunch of nobodies. This is a trope done in lots of stories where death isn't permanent and used in a way to further the true plot. The deaths are quickly done even though those characters have survived 100000 times worse situations just so we can move the plot to the real danger where stakes matter. While the issue still did it in a cool way, this story had no bite because we all know they are still going to be alive.
No no it doesn't ruin the story. I'm just saying it's not all that dramatic. These last two issues have not been as interesting as the big world building ones to me where crazy bombs were dropping all over. It's great to get into characters but they were used almost as props to just get to the next crazy time line moment.
That might explain why the Terrigan Mist repowered him instead of killing him.
And also at the time Wanda thought both of them were mutants. She even obviously targeted her family as all three were depowered.
Yeah, I agree with you here. Personally, I'm totally and completely done with the whole "Let's watch a bunch of heroes die" false dramatic device: like most other things in comics, it's been overdone to death. I mean, it was genuinely shocking and interesting back in Days of Future Past but that was nearly 40 years ago and we've had so many "alternate future" diversions since then that it just loses all impact. And then there's shit like Old Man Logan which was basically snuff porn for comics fans.
And that's before we even get to the whole issue of comic characters who really do die not actually staying dead because $$$$$$$$$$
Box/Pox #3 are read. Late again, but whatever.
I'm thinking the flowers that are introduced in #1 will have to come back with some meaning before this run is over, right?
We have seen an abundance of portals by now, but what of the flower that protects from any insight even in krakoa?
I bet that's a bubble where to cloning station is - or where the real versions of the X-Men are hiding while the clones go on suicide missions.

With the Incoming teaser having a flower in it and the spoiler nature (which we don't know) surrounding that young mutant Fauna (not Flora, but Fauna), I think the flowers are going to be much more important than they already are.
But with this last issue, it feels like everything I assumed was wrong (since it was "too easy" to assume there was a cop-out coming). I dunno, feels kinda disappointing that the build up to attack the station is "oh they are clones" or "oh this isn't the main reality". I know we'll get answers and im guessing they will be satisfactory, I just wish the journey was more than two issues that largely amount to "lol the x-men died but it wasn't for realsies so its all good" :(
Adult cyclops came back later with young cyclops memories in Champions and was a cool dude
Zub came on after young cyclops left
Finally read it earlier today and after the last two issues not really exciting me this was a really good one even being spoiled about the ending.
I think "Jean" is a 1st gen "Chimera" (Grown in the Mars habitat, single DNA clone, trained up to 16yo, then sent to Krakoa)...and I think "M" is a 2nd Gen Chimera (dual DNA clone, explains her Penance form ability)
And in an issue that makes it a point to describe the location of practically every scene, that opening scene with Xavier and the pods hatching is not labeled...I think it's on Mars

I don't even know what to do with my life now. How could they do this to me?!
