My only problem with X-Men Red (2018) was how easily Namor joined Jean's team

Sephyr posted:But we're talking about the guy that murdered Rachel Summers to save the life of a Chaotic Evil soul-draining immortal psychopath dominatrix Selene with a body count that rivals that of cholera. So sometimes it feels more like he's just trying to hog the title of edgy murdery guy all to himself, since he has killed dozens of hapless goons since saving that particular mass-murderer. The "he kills Rachel to save her from killing Selene" scene is one of the worst and weirdest Wolverine character moments for sure. It just makes zero sense. It was setup for the cancelled Phoenix solo series, from memory, so the X-Men had to do something that would take Rachel out of the book without her wanting to come back, which is why it's so extra and bizarre. But then the series where Rachel was meant to react and figure out her feelings about it got cancelled, so it's a non-sequitur of Wolverine killing a teenage girl and then a while later she shows up in Excalibur.

I never really thought about it - and admittedly I don't know much about the (apparently highly inconsistent) relationship between Magneto and his kids, let alone Xavier and Legion which I know even less about - but these two issues came pretty close together and just made me wonder if part of Xavier's and Magneto's eternal bond is being idols to mutantkind, but failures in their personal relationships with their actual children.

There were three Hellfire Galas so Krakoa lasted 3 years at minimum.

Wanda and Pietro being retconned to not be mutants or Magneto's kids was one of the worst things that came from the movies and the attempts to downplay the X-Men.
