IUG posted:So I'm back on X-Men, having jumped off when Bendis took over. I know Kate went to space for a while, but this seems like a whole different personality for her. I'm half expecting the other characters to ask her what's really going on and there's some trauma that she's covering up. Besides the tattoos being tries-too-hard tattoos, hasn't she always had a certain connection with her faith? Tattoos and Judaism don't mix, last I checked. Seems like a drastic thing for her to throw away. I know tons of people who are of the Jewish faith who have tattoos

Skwirl posted:What issues of which series was this? I stopped reading X-Books sometime during Whedon's Astonishing before Kitty was shot into space then didn't seriously read them again until after AvX, I've caught up on some of the stuff in between (Gillen's Uncanny, Aaron's Wolverine and the X-Men) but still have huge gaps in my knowledge and I'm trying to fill a lot in since I'm digging Hickman's stuff and I know how he likes to mine the lore. Fractions run

OnimaruXLR posted:has there been any explanation for why Jean is back in the Marvel Girl outfit other than Krakoa is one giant party, so dressing like she's going to a club in the 60s makes sense? Hickman said that they dress only in old costumes while on the island. Some exceptions happens like new outfits for members of the hellfire club

Happy Noodle Boy posted:Apocalypse played a big part in getting the Nimrod information during Moira's 10th life. He's also very onboard with Krakoa as a concept so it's hard to say he's not being "good" when his whole shtick has been adopted by Charles and everyone else. Hell, it's been interesting to see all these characters still remain true to themselves while also aligning with each other. I mean the council has Apocalypse, Shaw, SINISTER, Mystique, and Erik. Krakoa is definitely operating and running nowhere near "good". Charles himself started X-Force this time around. I assume Shaw will not be on the council for that much longer

But Marvel wanted the original X-Men teaming up and by god it was gonna happen no matter what. You think a guy who has been writing comics since he was a teen might have some hosed up ideas about women?

It’s also issue 101 so it must have been in response to issue 95-99. Also the fact that x-men was cancelled in all but name for 5 years. It’s all racism and change, which shows nothing ever changes

Metalshark posted:The discussion about trauma/abuse was really meaningful in itself, but particularly coming from Aurora. Speed geeking out at Northstar was another great touch and I loved Lorna and Rachel bit about "saying that to all the girls" - X-Factor is really clicking for me now. Super interested in Prodigy et al's mysterious deaths and the Morrigan. Also sinisters love of his cape

Saoshyant posted:The problem isn't his relation with the "Pretender", but the fact if he is allowed in Krakoa or not. And him being mutant (or not) is what would matter in that situation. No humans (powered or otherwise) are allowed in other than two exceptions: Northstar's husband and Jubilee's kid. Mutants can't even apparently bring in their non-mutant family members (which I expect to be a plot point at some time). Anyway, if Speed isn't, and he just rushed in on the island, uninvited, I imagine that would be considered a catastrophic failure by their security teams, sort of like when the Fantastic Four sneaked in. I am pretty sure they said mutants can come in if they are invited/with a mutant.

Skwirl posted:The Prodigy in the comics is pretty sure he died when he was told he died, but Speed has a photo of them together somewhere else on the night he supposedly died. And then a follow-up e-mail with the 5 says they didn't actually have a dead body from when he supposedly died, but they had so many confirmed deaths from that night in that place that they didn't doubt the outliers. The fact he was like let’s make out, which read to me as him not wanting to speak anymore about it
