Magneto is one of the full-on Krakoan kool-aiders, so I doubt he cares about religion/ethnicity any more because they're human things.Um why is a Jewish Man and Romani woman being put in a classic Christian painting pose?
But if you live in the MU you know you can choke Satan today and that she'll be back in a few month tops.Exodus wouldn't do this. If you're indoctrinating your youth through a shared mythology, you don't actually kill Satan.
I mean in the real world. It's sort of tone death.Magneto is one of the full-on Krakoan kool-aiders, so I doubt he cares about religion/ethnicity any more because they're human things.
Wanda...is dead and doesn't really have a choice in the matter.
The real answer, though, is "it looks cool". Also, Valerio Schiti is Italian so he's probably been dying to do this somewhere.
You could do that but given how connected everything is I don't think that's a great way of reading this era. The Hickman book was more about introducing stuff which was paid off in other books and then you get to the X of Swords crossover where you would need to read more than just the issues Hickman wrote because it crossed over with everything. I would strongly suggest if you wanted to get on board to read the Dawn of X trades after finishing House of X/Powers of X. The Dawn of X trades collect every single issue in reading order.Not sure if this is the place to ask, but I'll go for it anyway. If I am wanting to start this, do I only need to read the series written by Hickman to get the full story?
Thanks for the reply. I'll follow that reading order when I start.You could do that but given how connected everything is I don't think that's a great way of reading this era.

House of X/Powers of X
Dawn of X Volumes 1-16
X of Swords
Reign of X 1-onwards
Hellfire Gala
Just incredible. Hopefully we will get him for more than 6 issues of this even if we need fill in artists.
I would say equally as bad considering they added the whole Romani thing later into her backstory.
that's a Mark Brooks coverMagneto is one of the full-on Krakoan kool-aiders, so I doubt he cares about religion/ethnicity any more because they're human things.

SWORD preview. All hail the queen
And X-Men 1. Pepe is the master.
Our she is in her ultimate form where she can use any power she's absorbed before.I'm guessing at this point Rogue's resurrections protocols include the instructions "mix in some Kree DNA because we're all used to those powers."
She has Wonder Man's powers, actually.Our she is in her ultimate form where she can use any power she's absorbed before.I'm guessing at this point Rogue's resurrections protocols include the instructions "mix in some Kree DNA because we're all used to those powers."
Edit - and bring back the sleeve tattoo dammit!
Well, half of them now iirc.
That's still a hell of a lot stronger than all of Ms. Marvel power levels.
No, she doesn't turn purple. At least she hasn't done it since Uncanny Avengers.Okay. By half, I'm assuming you mean the "immortal flying brick" part and not the "turns into purple energy" part?
I think it always go back to the fact that Marvel is headquartered in New York and thus all the other major Marvel comics are set there, too.Looks like COTA ends next issue. It wasn't as bad as Fallen Angels, but I think it'll still be remembered as one of the era's duds.
Is it possible for Marvel to set up a superhero base that isn't in New York? There's an entire world out there and everyone keeps gravitating back to it.
Then again, this goes all the way back to Namor continually somehow finding himself in New York in the 40s, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised by now.
Yeah, I think it would have been much better if they spent issue one establishing the premise as "these are normal kids using alien tech to simulate X-Men powers, they wish they were mutants because they want to be special" and then the rest of the series was exploring their individual motivations and how it applies to their heroic acts.I think CoTA spent a little too long on it's core mystery, the actual characters are compelling and I hope this isn't the last we see from them.
Way of X is A tier. Marauders is B tier.Since Comixology is having a Marvel BOGO sale this week, I decided to use it to buy the issues of S.W.O.R.D. to catch up. I've already been reading Hellions and will follow the new X-Men Book.
If Way of X and Marauders also worth catching up on?
I've wondered why John hasn't been resurrected.Today's X-Men referenced John Proudstar's death way back in Giant-Size X-Men (at least that's what I assume the reference was), and characterized the new Treehouse as a memorial "to great mutants who are no longer with us." But shouldn't Krakoa render all that moot now? Or do the Cerebro backups only go so far back, and there are some mutants whose deaths are simply too old to resurrect?

X-Men 1 was great, interesting story with some old and new foes, and incredible art, I will definitely stick with it.
Hellions was Hellions, aka best book of the week every week it comes out.
Everything is so intense now. X-Men are fighting aliens on two fronts. XENO is asserting its grasp over Weapon Plus. And humans are apparently cracking the res protocols.
Shit's hype.
The prior book started at #1 after Dawn of X/Powers of X mini-series. It was a monthly anthology that seeded plot hooks for the rest of the current X-books.I've not been following, did the previous X-Men run end and this 2021 is the new one?

Now it returns to following a consistent team based in NY and numbering has restarted at #1.
