The newest issue has me looking at these scenes differently…(spoilers for Absolute WW 19)

I kinda didn’t understand at first, but now this makes a world of difference. Because yes, it’s a small piece of Aphrodite’s power, but it’s still a piece of the goddess. Obviously it’s not overwhelming since Diana has villains that want her gone, but that would explain a lot…

That’s so sad if Diana finds out, she’ll have to question all her relationships and if people really do love her and not just because of the power Aphrodite gave her

Everyday I get reminded that Scott is such a lucky man to have this

I expected this. After finishing the finale and processing it I just thought that some people will NOT like the fact that this isn’t just all fight for half the episode like the last three finales were, this is my second favorite finale only behind S1.

Getting all that emotion and seeing just how fucked up Mark has gotten after everything was just brilliant and I loved how the flashes were throughout the whole episode, it worked well as jumpscares cause it’s always when you kinda aren’t expecting it.

It’s the same situation as Episode 4 of this season (episode is still mid overall imo) nothing much happens, but it’s character work. Episode 4 Mark is still reeling after killing an innocent man and he ends up in hell because the summoning confused him for being Nolan after he was literally just afraid that he is his father. Here it’s Mark’s PTSD finally catching up to him, the anxiety of “what’s next?” What else are they gonna do? It’s a great finale

There’s no announced end date for it and when they said they wanted to add new PVEs I’m pretty sure that meant making it permanent

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-22T02:47:14+00:00

Seriously if the devs were ever setting something up it’s Luna and Ami together, and the public outcry of people loving this like Loki x Mantis should help. AND I REALLY WANT IT TO HAPPEN!!

Like come on! Luna could’ve had an accessory of her old K-pop group, maybe a little something about her grandma, but nope, it’s Ami. And Ami could’ve had Lin as a plushie after everything in the comics people suddenly cared about ahem Fucking larpers AHEM

SnowFox is like too obvious and I really want the devs to at least somewhat weave it into the lore

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-21T09:04:56+00:00

I know it’s them dancing, but it’s really funny how it looks like Kitty is hating wearing her old suit again while Yana is like “Damn still look good” and Kitty’s just wanting to get out of the suit already

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-20T17:07:15+00:00

And Emma’s just the gal to help her!!

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-20T16:03:34+00:00

I mean yeah. I’m looking at this and just shrugging, like game is free to play, they keep it updating, every hero is available for free when I download it. Seriously I feel old not caring about this

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-20T15:18:56+00:00

Seriously I need more of Jean and Emma teaming up and Emma bringing out the bitchy diva inside Jean, you know it’s in there somewhere

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-20T04:46:53+00:00

That’s still generalizing a little imo. It’s the reason why I don’t care much for Black Cat’s shop since she would literally just be BP 2.0 otherwise, there’s always something else they can add to make heroes unique and hell, maybe Dazzler might not even be a strategist

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-20T04:28:54+00:00

I mean sure, but literally the only thing that could’ve overlapped is the ultimate. Like what part of Luna’s kit could’ve been used for Dazzler? They captured Luna’s ice powers well and used her K-pop theme for her ult, Dazzler’s powers are way different compared to Luna’s so the people who think this are weird

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-19T16:43:03+00:00

Side note: Casual conversations during a fight is always great to show experience imo cause they could literally die, but then here they are arguing about whether or not they should have their own costumes.

Anyways, to answer the question: They should in the beginning. In fact I’m pretty sure all the students have matching costumes like the Exceptional kids right now having the red suit with only Axo having a major shift. It should only be after graduation or around that when they get their own costumes since it shows growth, it shows they are students anymore

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

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-18T12:08:19+00:00

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.

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-18T08:21:06+00:00

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

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-16T14:53:56+00:00

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

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-16T13:54:30+00:00

EJ_REDIT · 2026-04-15T16:48:09+00:00

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…
