There was a weird reference to "North Valnon" as a country ruled by a kleptocratic family, which is weird, because North Korea has definitely appeared in other books and there are scenes set in both Russia and Taiwan here. Has Marvel been treading lightly around NK recently or something? I'm reading a lot fewer comics than I used to.

Duggan created Valnon a few years ago when he was writing Hulk.

Edit: Actually it seems to go back at least a few more years to Deadpool.

Yeah, everyone seems to remember it as North Korea. One of those Mandela things I guess.

There was a period where the enhanced senses/physical attributes/healing package was some weird offshoot dog mutant thing but I think that story ends with a reveal it was all bullshit?

This is the obvious solution, yeah. Iraq's even better. It's not like we're ever going to run out of wars to plop him into.

Magneto's history with the Holocaust is a more pressing problem, but he's been de-aged multiple times and magnets something something slow the aging process.

His slice of the universe has resurrection now anyway.

It’s the opposite. In all but about 3 cases secondary mutations are just variations on original powers.

Yeah, we saw humans enter in a previous issue. Corsair also isn't a mutant.

That's so weird because I am a lifelong X-Men fan and I absolutely love his stuff. I was just telling a friend last week that this is the first time since I was a child that I get excited for the next week's X-Title

He means how half the posts in this thread are about Magik.

Wolverine probably should have been Australian.
