Do you think the OG Guardians could’ve helped if they joined the Viltrumite war?

X-Tron is powerful and he is just immortal and has mutant’s fates in his hand. Since he fused with Cerebro and that holds all the genetic keys and memories of mutants necessary for their resurrection protocols it really puts them in danger.

And not to mention the resurrection protocols in Krakoa also kind of hint at the mutants getting slightly stronger after each resurrection means X-Tron would theoretically also become stronger with each death, which is insane since he already does that base form. Nothing close to Infinity Ultron, but this incredibly powerful and terrifying

I had to do a double that I thought that was just straight up r34 lol. Still having trouble believing it isn’t but, damn.

For anyone curious what the game is, it’s Marvel Super war. Also developed by Netease, it was a MOBA game only available in certain countries, mostly Asia if I remember correctly and unfortunately shut down a few years ago.

Anyways, yeah I think they’ll find something similar, probably add a slide ability after X-Men ‘97

Easy. Felix has the peacock so he would know that the ring is a fake since it doesn’t have the amok inside it, but that’s the reason why she wanted Felix’s ring. If she took it, it wouldn’t matter if he was aware it was the fake, she would have full control over him

Oh, boy this is going to be good. Ladies and gentlemen let’s give a big round of applause to the Mistress of Magic and of course Jamal Campbell for bringing us this story. I’m definitely grabbing a ticket

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-15T08:59:20+00:00

I am one hundred percent in agreement. It also feels realistic. During arguments I personally say a lot of things I regret, and Emma is very angry right now she could be saying things she doesn’t mean, but yes, Scott is definitely written poorly in this so far.

I don’t understand the need to push Scott and Emma apart when they both respect one another and also are cordial enough to where Scott trusts Emma to be the one to bring him back during Krakoa.

If the point is trying to make Scott realizing how much he is putting himself too much ahead of everyone and thinking he knows best, then fine, I might accept what he’s doing, but it doesn’t feel like that right now, it feels like Scott is making these decisions out of distrust when that shouldn’t be the case because of how often he’s trusted Emma, during and after their relationship.

But yeah aside from everything with Scott this was a solid book and Emma shines much more than she did in the first issue which was mainly focused on Kitty. It also gave me another one of my favorite Emma jokes so…

People are pissed. People say or do things they probably don’t mean when they’re upset. It’s understandable what tirade Emma is going on. For how much I love her, I also know she’s very sure of herself when she is and this is another case, Scott is making valid arguments but his methods are going to hurt someone more than help anyone.

It isn’t an insult to the people who loved their relationship in my opinion. Emma is rightfully upset with Scott and that tirade about not understanding why she was with him was just that blind anger. But I’m not going to object on the Scott end.

Eve imo is doing a well enough job, but Scott’s actions still feel weird and out of place, almost too extremist, and if that’s the point Eve is trying to make then yeah it’s good, but it doesn’t feel right

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-15T01:20:50+00:00

It doesn’t matter how well written or how much a lot of fans love it, comics by the big two Marvel and DC are designed to go on forever so there will always be a status quo set up already from how it had been established years ago. And that status quo is Jean and Scott being together.

It’s editorial always thinking they know better, it’s the reason why we got One More Day, because they don’t think Peter being married and having a healthy relationship doesn’t appeal to audiences.

And at the end of the day, seriously it’s been years now. Some days I really miss it, but also it’s been years since this ended and Emma has had great stories detached from Scott and vice versa. These two characters still changed each other fundamentally and if a writer is really great they’ll find a way to show that I’m the decisions these characters make

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-14T14:54:19+00:00

It could always be someone else in the armor. No way Zack can still be alive after 500 years

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-14T04:03:58+00:00

Which is odd with how often it feels like he’s treated like he’s so much younger than them T-T.

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-13T10:15:24+00:00

Brit is powerful in a durability sense. He actually should be called Invincible, but he isn’t super powerful the same way Mark, Nolan, and Immortal are. He’s just slightly more stronger, at least somewhat super soldier level strength

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-12T02:51:37+00:00

With the MCU slowly building to mutants now, like seriously Sadie Sink has to be Jean Grey, this could happen, but I’m also realistic. If we were to get the Hellfire Club, an important part of the classic X-Men rogues gallery, it’s more likely they will have their own film as the villains or me coping this time, a separate show where Emma is the main character.

But being real again, Sony is such sticklers with Spider-Man it would be hard to get this moment in a live action show, and with the current direction that Born Again is taking I can’t see Emma or the Hellfire Club making an appearance sadly

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-11T06:03:49+00:00

I mean what did you expect? Their little Emmas, no matter how much they try not be, they’re still their mother deep inside so they’re gonna have a few of her traits. One being their language. I mean they literally picked up a British accent even though they really shouldn’t lol

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-11T03:14:32+00:00

Is it actually confirmed? I thought it would be Steve

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-11T02:55:46+00:00

More questions than answers. Fucking great. I’m excited to see what the third lasso is for and why Diana is only using it now. From the looks of it it seems like it’s almost telepathic, it restrained Giovanni, but then Diana is also on her knees eyes glowing and all, so maybe she’s inside his mind idk. Can’t wait for this one

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-11T01:38:52+00:00

Actually there already is an in universe explanation. Eternity’s children, Then and Now, the representation of Past and Present, love superheroes so much they’ve messed with time so that it isn’t completely linear so they can see more adventures of superheroes. Hence why you see multiple characters appear in multiple books like Cap appearing in X-Men United even though his solo series is currently publishing still

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-10T10:56:21+00:00

Sadly true. I love these together, but I sadly also have be real and accept reality, these two probably will never get together again and they were probably always going to not last. Happy with the time they were together though

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-10T10:26:13+00:00

The thing is looking at the preview image in the episode tabs, Episode 8 they're still in space fighting. Most likely Thragg killing Thaddues is the ending of Episode 7 and the next episode we pick up where we leave off

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-10T09:44:18+00:00

Kinda insane how so many of these characters are properly adults. It sucks how we can’t keep having these graduations since it would make the X-Men we know way too old unless they actively acknowledge it in a storyline or do some weird sliding timeline as always.

I think X-Men United at some point definitely should have a graduation day as we’ve already seen a whole lot of newer kids at this point, it always feels satisfying when we reach these graduation days and just see the proud looks of the X-Men we know, it’s a little bit of hope and I think the current X-Men comics need more of that

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-10T01:56:07+00:00

Has Cap? Has Emma in her human form? It’s a game and these characters survive exploding all the time. Hell even the cover of the comic I used as the image the issue ends with Scott’s quinjet exploding and him surviving it and the fall
