I thought Hit Monkey was just too far along to cancel like they did for the rest of the Offenders project, so it's surprising they finished up and decided to actively do more. I guess it offered up something for someone.

It had some great moments.
The introduction of Lady Bullseye at the end of episode 6 was pretty awesome and stuck to my memory. What a loving psychopath! Great song too.

It felt sort of ridiculous when The female lead picked up her mantle at the end and I am eager to see where that goes.

Between knowing where the episode was set, and seeing this post and the two above it, I knew what was coming. And yet, it was somehow worse than I imagined. Jeez.

I kind of expected it would happen eventually, because what other major story could take place there? But I didn't expect it to happen so quickly, nor to be that brutal in a revival of a 90s Saturday morning cartoon.

Are we still pulling from Claremont comics for these stories?

I also find it fascinating that we are still pre-Emma Frost in everything X-Men.

Last episode was pretty post-Claremonte. Emma atleast showed up again. Here's hoping she gets expanded upon, maybe even joins the team. This attack on Genosha in the comics is how she gets her diamond powers interesting enough.

Oh I thought she already had those but didn’t like to use them cause she can’t use telepathy at the same time.

Emma got the diamond form powers in New X-Men when Cassandra killed literally everyone on Genosha except her (because she suddenly had the diamond form powers).

Wasn't that when mutants (not just Emma) started getting "secondary mutations" for some reason? I think that's around the time I got poor in college and had to stop buying books

Yup. It was a Grant thing. That's also why Beast went very feline.

I think Emma mind controlled him and realized he was just holding back on his powers, and then he opened up more after that.

I think there was something about Angel having blood or tears or some sort of bodily fluid that healed others.

Comics are dumb.

It’s funny because if you check out https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Secondary_Mutation
then half the known/suspected secondary mutations is just mental instability, or Black Tom becoming a tree which had been happening for half a decade or more by that point.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.
I didn't expect any resolutions from last week's episode this week since that's usually how it works. We still got a great episode.

I'm still weirded out by Forge's voice. There's something off about it, like its not mixed right.

His voice doesn't flow like a native english speaker. It bugged me as well but it's Forge and he's cool.

The weird thing about Hit Monkey s2 is that they've removed all the Marvel branding from it.
