X Years Later...Comics in this thread:>X-Men: Age of Revelation Overture>Deadpool/Wolverine #10>Astonishing X-Men #25-26, #28-31
Bump if you're reading.
oof
Wait, Glob pulled the trigger?
And I here I was saying last week that we would have to wait a while regarding the last page of X-Men #21 >150521249. Turns out we didn't have to! That's a relief.
So AoR Magneto was always Erik? Why do they keep drawing his face covered by shadows then?
I'm so behind I'm just now starting X-Manhunt. So annoyed about this event, I miss good X Books
>Bei is the leakWhy would she do this?
>Hank was also brought from the present to the futureOkay, that makes it two characters that will be heavily affected by this event.>"You and Scott had both been punished by Revelation. He [...] made you into Babels.Could Forge not create something to undo that then instead of essentially making Scott and Hank overwrite themselves with an earlier save file of their minds from ten years ago?
"Fuck them kids" - Glob Herman, 2035
>Quentin is using kids to spy for himAlso, I really dislike that pink beard.
Cypher is still such a weird choice to be the big villain of an event. What's next? Age of Cannonball? Age of Wolfsbane?
>Apocalypse is getting involvedExpected that to happen.
At least Mackay seems to be having fun with this. I assume most of the other books will suck.
>>150633874>Millions dead?>Yeah but mutants have it pretty goodScott falls farther and farther every day
Really dislike that faceplate that Logan is forced to wear.Anyways, get ready for a lot of deaths.
>>150633931>>150633935>>150633938And this is where it goes to trash.They just can't help themselves with that character
Of course Logan survives, because he's already confirmed to be appearing in other AoR comics. And you know, because he's Logan.
I really wonder what Doug is doing that would cause Bei to have to call Blue Dad himself to kick his ass. Hopefully, we don't have to wait that long for answers.
event checklist
New month, new editorial pages.>Laura is a motherWHAT
We also got a map over the Revelation Territories. Sadly not as cool as the map to Arakko was when that was revealed.
The story continues in Amazing X-Men!And now for Deadpool/Wolverine.
>>150633953Marvel will never stop glazing Wolverine as some invincible super killer. He should've gotten at best 1 or 2 ambush kills before Schwrz yo-yo'd him with gravity.
Despite the thread subject and the majority of the comics here for the time being now being set X years into the future, we're still going to feature the comics taking place before this event, starting with the last issue of this series. Which also happens to feature Apocalypse.Apocalypse from Cable's future traveled back in time to the 90's after he was able to successfully take over Stryfe's body. He infected Logan and Wade with Legacy 2.0, a T-O virus that allowed him to control them and began his plan for ridding the world of all mankind and letting nature restore itself. But just as his preperations were coming to an end, he was stopped by SHIELD and placed in an adamantium container that wouldn't be opened until the present day by some idiots at O*N*E. Resuming where he left off, he began to take control of Wade and Logan again while also having to deal with a section of O*N*E led by Director Talyn, who not only was able to reverse engineer the Legacy 2.0 and use it for her own purposes, but also saw this as an opportunity to use this crisis to cause an enforcing of a mutant registration act. But it all comes down to this issue!Will Apocalypse succeed? Will Talyn cause that act to be enforced? Will Legacy have more page time? Will Logan and Wade save everything? Everything will be answered!
>"Are you clocking the thematic parallelism?"Yes, but I really don't care for it.
Oh. That went quick.
>Talyn got hit with Fatal PushCan't say I will miss you, bootleg Jun Wei.
I agree with Logan, you should shut up Wade.
Stryfe is DEAD (again)
So he went from possessing Stryfe to...possessing a pyramid.Don't think it's an upgrade.
Remember when Stryfe beat up Apocalypse so badly Pooky cried
So Stryfe was the fourth X-Cutioner all along? I thought that he didn't count with him being just a body for Apocalypse to possess in the end.
Oh well, get fucked Apocalypse (from Cable's future)
Hey, no smooching here.
>>150633869They should fuck
And now for a final message by the creative team.And now for Infinity Comics.
Things are going to be busy for the coming weeks, so it's a good time to clear up more of the Infinity Comics backlog. Something tells me that we might be seeing this comic getting hit with a relaunch soon as Avengers Academy and the other Astonishing Infinity Comics have been canceled (and in Astonishing Spider-Man's case, was replaced with Astonishing Miles Morales: Spider-Man which is a direct companion series to Ziglar's run and written by him as well).This time we're focusing on Husk and Skin as they search for a mutant on an island whose people carry a dark secret. This is "The Cuckoo Song" by Alex Paknadel and Phillip Sevy.Oh, and in case you were wondering, Issue #27 was a one-shot prelude to the Hellfire Vigil set before this arc and we covered that last time.
What's Magik up to
>>150633907Age of Magik!
>>150634072Demonic sex with juggernaut all day nonstop in her Limbo lands here>>150633970
>>150633874>This mutant land was built on genocideso this is 100% about current events, right? I'd have assumed they'd make magneto the zionist standin and not scott
>>150633970he's trying really hard to get krakoan fans back eh
Next week: Amazing X-Men #1, World of Revelation, Laura Kinney: Sabretooth #1, Binary #1, Longshots #1, Spider-Man & Wolverine #6, Avengers #31.And that's it! If you liked these, support your LCS or whatever.
>>150633852Okay they better explain how the hell the world has changes so much in just ten years.
>>150633883Kinda liking this penitent Mags.
>>150633878turning people into Babals is a very Snow Crash thing to do, Guess it continues the 90s feel Mackay and Breevort wanted from this event
>>150634388It's a mix of Doug using his new Heir of Apocalypse powers along mutants with power amplifying abilities to reshape the environment for 10 years
>>150633931how about instead of talking you actually do something? fucking idiots
>>150633806The art does a very good job of looking like Liefield era X-Men but actually good, it's a very interesting look.
>>150633935Hope Warren gets a big damned hero moment somewhere in all of this.>>150633938ah fuck
>>150633954yeah dat's bullshit.It's alwasy been heavily implied Xorn going off would be apocalyptic in scale, not just a little bang
>>150633970I'm not sure San Francisco would be the new capital of the US
>>150634041>Remember when Stryfe beat up Apocalypse so badly Pooky cried
>>150634184when I think about what I liked in Krakoa, my mind of course immediately goes to the mutant infighting and killing off of characters
>>150633874>>150633883I don't... hate this angle for Magneto? Not keen on Scott dancing with genocide apologia but this direction for Mags is kinda neat>>150633938ope nevermind they just couldn't help themselves
>>150633907Cypher's been a villain since X-Men Green
>>150634676It would be for the best if everyone just didn't acknowledge x-men green
>>150634156Any parallels to current events I assume are wholly by accident since Brevoort's made it very clear that his primary goal with the X-Office is to coast on 90s X-Stalgia...
>>150634621Gotta wonder what the point of his little speech was. One last hypocrisy for the road?
>>150633970>A contested fertile cresent between a river and large body of water informed by genocideIs the X-Office aware of the third rail they're about to be passing on?
>>150633865I still can't believe anyone at the X-Office thinks Blackface Doug looks like a credible threat
>>150634621McKay wants Scott to be in a specific position ideologically for this event since he'll be the focus of it with Beast so he's ignoring any previous position Scott may have had even one he pretty much wrote in his own book, cuz Cyclops certainly wouldn't be fine with millions of humans death just for mutant liberation, at no point in any past event was he that kind of zealot not even in Krakoa.
>>150633826Based Glob
>>150633865>>150633869Hnnnngggg plap plap mommy Psylock>>150633871Hnnnngggg plap plap mommy Bei
>>150635004>current eventsI mean, the current events have techically started back in 1947
>>150634054Nice reference
x-men the undertow was pretty good too, showing the negative after effects of krakoa and stuff.
>>150634071Academy was the only Infinity comic worth anything
>>150633806This is really bad
>>150633968>spoilerIt's mine
>>150633931Magneto getting Merced by Logan is fucking dumb
>we're getting an even more evil Beast and Emma soon in New Avengers>while Laura is written extremely OOCpain
>>150634748You can't since Duggan and Hickman explicitly defended the storyline, which led to the first half of it being one of the very fucking few Krakoa era digital stories to get a physical release and that it was pretty explicit proof that Krakoa was pure evil and couldn't be swept under the woods
>>150634621Erik here is finally taking OG Chuck's words to his heart, and chuck hated what krakoa and the mutants became, the very thing they despised.
X-Men writers only know how to write one story nowadays and it's always the same dystopic future timeline bullshit that gets undone where everyone's evil, edgy, or dead.Even nu-Ultimate couldn't resist having that considering that Ultimate Wolverine exists.
Binary next week!
>>150633816>>150633826And just last month he was saying he didn't cook meat.
>>150633926>>150633931>>150633935>>150633938>>150633935I really hate all this Wolverine wank. It's an angry Canadian midget with knife hands. Several X-Men should be able to launch him into orbit.
>>150633811>>150638515
>>15063865510 years is enough to change diet
>>150633905I thought Locus was the one Glob killed
>>150633907that kamala canon insertion should have been an age of x redux since legion was central
>>150633826I can't believe he globbed all over her face.
>>150640460No Locus is the black teleporter Topaz is the Chorister, a power amplifier who keeps Cypher boosted
>>150633806It begins
>>150639720She will save us all
>>150633943>>150633948>>150633954What?
>>150633971>The story continues but they are already dead
>>150634072She and Cypher used to be best buddies I'm surprised she's not more prominent in this event. But then again, that's probably a good thing
>>150643076I mean Dani is leading the Avengers but somehow I doubt she'll actually end up being important in this eventMeanwhile Darkchild is going to be in multiple tie ins
>>150634290God this was shit same with the first of these arcs. Why the fuck is there a goddamn symbiote. Why can't they write anything actually interesting instead of just >Mutants good>Humans bad and stupidLook what I came up with in ten minutes>Husk gets a call from her friend to investigate a murder in a remote Scottish village where humans and mutants live together post Krakoa>A mutant was torn to shreds and tensions are running HOT>Mutants are blaming humans for the murder despite the sheer lack of evidence that a human can rip someone to pieces>Husk is paired up with an old jaded ass cop, both are knee deep in their own bigotry to actually notice what's happening>Another person is torn to bits, this time a human>Humans think it's a retaliation attack and now we're on the cusp of a localized race war>Husk and the Detective get their heads out of their asses and realize the perp isn't a human or mutant>Shenanigans insure and they find out it a left over symbiote from Venom War/King in Black>It's been regenerating and finally got strong enough to finally attack and eat people's brains>They're now trying to hunt this monster down while the town devolves into a full on race war>Kill the thing in front of the mob before shit gets too bad>Husk saves the day but now everyone has to pick up the pieces and start healing
>>150633811bonk
>>150633811I do like it when they bring back no-names instead of stuffing it with more brand new OCs
>>150633852>Why do they keep drawing his face covered by shadows then?for the aura, duh
>>150633938aaaand Warren's dead. I guess a few pages of him being on an X-Men team is better than a few issues of him being a sell-out social media whore in X-Factor. Still, I miss the days when he was an actual character who took part in actual stories.
>>150633874Where did we go wrong??
>>150633883aura farming as usual
>>150633905>spoilerI'm with you. The whole design is atrocious, almost on par with Doug's new look. Seriously, is there some kind of anti-twink agenda at play here?? But more generally speaking, my biggest rule of thumb for redesigns is this: If I couldn't recognize the character if it was drawn in black and white, it's shit.
>>150633938>>150633943Like I said. Anti-twink agenda.
Only here for the age of revelation stuff, art in the first issue looks amazing. Haven't read any modern x-men since krakoa ended but this looks like it will be fun. Also holy hell that is a lot of #1s.
>>150633968>spoilerprolly an informally adopted kid as a nod to AoA Sabretooth and Blink
>>150635767Ain't that just a reprint of the Infinity Comics??
>>150633852so that he could farm aura
>>150645406Purifiers killing a bus full of children and being kept a prisoner in his own home by ONE.Sliding timescale makes everything fucky but Scott went from teenage soldier of Xavier's dream, to a righteous leader in his own right, to Xavier leaving and mutants suffering at every turn and needing to be the one holding it all together.
>>150645540anon, it's been 10 years, ofc he would have been through twink death
>>150647288gone through*
>>150634621>>150633938He's a hard counter to Wolverine, knows that he's about to attack and can just instantly deploy a metal repelling forcefield. Just lets himself get stabbed.
>>150635767>Lifeguard becomes a literal fucking islandNo that shit was ass
>>150635004Well he's not doing a very good job. Outside of this event being an(other) AoA rehash nothing from this era feels like 90s X-Men
>>150635767>showing the negative after effects of krakoa being gone and stufffixed.
>>150645406The X-Men and their writers got radicalized through time
I actually would have really liked this issue if it weren't for the ridiculous Wolverine wank at the final part.
