What’s in the Origin Box?Comics in this thread:>X-Men United #3>Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon #4>Inglorious X-Force #5>Moonstar #3>Rogue #5
Bump if you're reading.
Sorry that I'm late, something came up and I had to go deal with it.
Nice Captain America Annual #8 homage.
Huh? Weren’t you just fighting Cap?
Oh okay, he’s being teleported across time to where each team member has ended up because of the miscalculation last issue.
So fucking funny that the cover and the solicits hint at Beast and Magneto are going to have an argument over this, only for the “argument” to be 2 panels where Magneto calls this mission a waste.
That’s right, go solve the problem you caused.
>”This is Maurice Canfield’s house…but my name is Vernon Weaver.”So Canfield was dead the whole time, and the hint that he was alive last issue was just a giant fake out.
woops

I thought you were supposed to die in a few days, how are you still alive and well enough to be running a school?
Why are you ignoring Lourdes Emma?

And now for Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon.
This is it, the last part to the journey to Armageddon. Logan was approached by the mutant tracker Teri O’Barnes about the mutant Tyler Torrens, who had been kidnapped by the private military company PrimeWarrior and was about to put him through the same process that Logan went through by Weapon X. Traveling to the facility located in the Ozarks that Tyler was being held in, they were surprised to learn that the facility had been blown apart by a bomber who had been targeting PW’s facilities across the country, with Tyler and an Origin Box they had acquired missing. After traveling further into the forests, they find the cabin belonging to the bomber: Dave Colton, the Captain America during the War on Terror.The trio were about to head out to find Tyler, but PW’s forces lead by Nuke blew up the cabin and fatally injured Teri, forcing the trio to flee and hop on to Dave’s airplane. During the flight, Teri ends up succumbing to her injuries, while Dave tells Logan that he had revealed to Tyler about PW’s South Dakota facility where Nick Pruet - PW’s CEO - operates from, and suspects that Tyler went there to confront him. When the two finally reached the said facility Dave’s suspicions were proven correct, as Tyler was not only there, he had taken the missing Origin Box with him! How will this impact the events of Armageddon? And more importantly: What’s in the Origin Box?
>>153772737The power of friendship or something? I don't know, this book has been confusing and garbage. The only thing I've liked so far is Jitter defaulting to diplomacy instead of having some pointless fight.
>It’s a Nuke cloneI guess they got the DNA samples from the Ash scientist guy since he worked on Project Homegrown.
>>153772652>Jitter can do hypnoHoly based
>Give Pruet the box in exchange for a device to dampen his X-GeneWill Tyler take the deal?
The original Nuke isn’t happy with a clone of him around.
Deal: Denied.
What was the point of introducing this dude in another comic if he was going to end up dead at the end of the mini? Who is going run PrimeWarrior now?
Oh dear, we’re still not done yet.
Well, I guess Nuke died too.
Colton, nooooo!!
>Logan has to save Colton by opening the boxWell? What’s in it?
>TimeskipWait no, I wanted to see what was inside the box!
Okay, Colton survived in the end.
>>153772967Nuke will probably come back he to useful for Captain America and Wolverine WritersI'm surprised he was never used in Daredevil after Born Again.
>>153772737cue DOGE defunding this school due to DEI in 5... 4... 3....
>He can fly nowSo he most likely got Sentry's powers out of the box. Let's hope that he uses these powers for good and doesn't do anything that will make Logan regret this decision later, like appearing in an Avengers event with Red Hulk....wait a minute.
Nevermind, looks like Nuke ended up surviving and getting revenge on the Ash guy.
The story continues in Avengers: Armageddon!And now for Inglorious X-Force.
>>153773014Colton is showing up in Armageddon, so I'm not surprised he survived
Last issue, the team had to deal with the aftermath of Boom-Boom attempting to explode Domino, which left her badly damaged. As a result of using his Death Seed-powers two issues ago, Warren was able to mysteriously turn into a brand-new Angel form and healed Boom-Boom from her grave injuries. This caused Cable (who already suspects that Warren is Kamala’s assassin) to accuse him for actually using his Death Seed-powers to control Boom-Boom into attacking in the first place, coming to the conclusion that Apocalypse was the mastermind behind it all and was possibly controlling Warren. With the help of Hellverine’s powers, they were able to track the source that controlled Boom-Boom to a SHIELD black site disguised as a beach house in Florida that was being defended by the Nasty Boys. But when the Nasty Boys suddenly disintegrated, Warren began losing control of himself as the true mastermind stepped forward: Sinister!
>>153773082Oh nice Carol.
>Warren’s new Angel form with healing powers is called Blood AngelSo it is a joke on the whole “healing blood” thing. Too bad Sinister is the reason this form exists.
>You know, since my time on Krakoa, I’ve begun to consider just how much my interests and needs have diverged from [...] Apocalypse.”How long has it even been since there was a Sinister story centered around him trying to get back at Apocalypse or something?
>>153773082An okay mini but it felt much more like an addendum or side story for his Captain America book than a Wolverine story
>Sinister wants to offer every mutant resurrected during Krakoa immortalityAs if they would accept it from you, get real.
Kamala please, we’re not going to hear him out.
>Boom-Boom can now go into Warren’s mind whenever he changes forms because he healed herWell that’s rather convenient.
And another one of Sinister’s clones died. We're still not free of him yet, because we know he's showing up in X-Men United soon.
>>153772542booba
>Neither Akihiro, Tabitha nor Warren was Kamala's assassinWell, that's a relief.>The “One of us” line actually means that they can’t trust any other mutants, including the X-MenAre we really sure that’s what it means?
>>153773216>>153773231I swear the MCU hardlight keeps getting worse every time they use it
So this is the reason why Domino has been watching Cable.
Cable? What are you doing?
Who the hell are you, and why have you infected Cable?
And now for Moonstar.
Previously, Dani and Kian went to a cavern in the western Shandong Province in Shanghai to stop Kyron from finding the “Nàihé Hunping”, an artifact that was able to store the souls of the dead. Unfortunately, Kyron had already reached before them and taken the artifact with him. While Kian was ready to leave, Dani realized that Kyron was still inside the cavern and revealed the illusion that he was hiding behind. Kyron (using the appearance of Dani’s grandfather Black Eagle) begins to fight her until she grabs Dáinsleif from him, causing the sword to paralyze her as it rejects her from being its wielder. As Kyron prepares to claim Dani’s soul, Kian returns to fend him off from her, and Kyron teleports away. But because Dani had touched Dáinsleif, the sword attempts to once again claim her soul…
Suddenly, valkyries
>>153773369So I think we all called this from the jump, right?The team traitor thing, not the Lettuce Man thing
Hey, it’s Kyron’s sister.
>>153772998I am guessing Sentrybox or Hyperionbox.
>>153773369looks like that villain Ran Shen from Remender's Captain America run, at least in design, but that's probably a coincidence
>>153773469Sentry makes more sense since Sentry was made using the Super Serum, and Hyperion is an Eternal who can't really give their powers to people
To me, my New Mutants!
>>153772998Blue Marvel maybe?
>Kyron plans to take the souls of Dani’s parentsWow, what a tool.
>Kyron has already reached their homeOh motherfucker.
Wait, you could have teleported the whole time? What was the point of taking so long to get to China then?
>Dani’s parents are goneAlthough he hasn’t claimed their souls yet, or else he would have left their bodies there.

And now for Rogue.
During a rescue mission with the X-Men, Rogue saved the disfigured man known as J. Stelton, who she recognized as a former Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. security guard that she once met when she was with the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, during a mission with Mystique, Sabretooth and Constrictor that she has poor memory of. Following a nightmare back to that mission, Rogue decided to go on a journey to find out what actually happened back then.After going through her journey, which involved a brief but awkward reunion with Mystique who refused to tell the main cause of the nightmare, stopping a deal between Humanity First and Constrictor’s company Chordata Industries, traveling to Chicago to break into Chordata Industries HQ to get info about the mission from Constrictor and then having to clear her image by exposing Chordata Industries for funding Humanity First, she hides inside a building under construction to piece together everything that she had learned about the mission. But after reviewing the information and clearing her mind, she realized that she was the one who had maimed Stelton back then after accidentally absorbing Sabretooth’s powers and personality, and prepared to meet with Stelton to make things right.But while Rogue has been going through this journey, Stelton has only grown increasingly paranoid ever since he met Rogue again, and fears for his life that she’s back to finish the job she began years ago…
>Scales growing on his backI guess we got a confirmation on when this mini takes place >>153671374.
Couldn’t either of you just ask Jitter to use her 1 minute to gain hacker-known-as-4chan skills and find his location, instead of using the Eye with the cannibal curse?>”Sendin’ coord’nates now.”…but you didn’t get coordinates, you got an address. And before you say anything: No, I haven’t done anything to this spread. It apparently is like this in the digital version, for whatever reason.
It's time for the reunion this mini has building up to...
Get shot
>”If you hadn’t done this, my X-Gene might have never activated.”You were a latent mutant all along until Rogue maimed you?
Oh no, the wife!>”Ah know mutant healers! Josh -- Elixir!”Uh, he’s still in the WHR you know.
Well, that went fucking horribly.Oh well, let's go home.
>>153773818Yeah, that's a plot detail that came out of nowhere. I thought this was guilt over maiming a flatscan
>>153773818>>153773828>>153773838>>153773855You know what I talked a lot of shit but was proven wrong, she actually DID main the guy and didn't get off scott free for it too. Credit where credit is due
Don’t spook her like that Hotoru.
Next week: X-Men #30, Generation X-23 #4.And that's it! If you liked these, support your LCS or whatever.
>>153773910This mini was originally plotted for ten issues and got cut down to five, wasn't it?
>>153773952This mystery didn't have enough juice to be 5 issues long, so I doubt itI think they should have just reworked issues 2-4 to be team-ups with Hotoru and Emma Frost, instead of a random encounter with journalists and a Humanity First plug
>>153773900>>153773910Is that it? Is that all? 'Oh no I used to be a villain and that makes me sad' again?
>>153773645an okay issue
>>153772652BITCH HE'S THE ONLY FUCKING GUY THERE, HE'S GOT ISSUES WITH CAP AND LAURA IS BEING A FROTHING RETARD, YOU AND JITTER ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT AREN'T ACTIVELY ATTACKING HIM!!Is she always like this?!
>>153773472These Valkyrie spells Dani is using are coolBut also bring up the question why the fuck hasn't she ever used them before?
>>153772720this is veering into the kind of retarded territory about how Spider-Man is responsible every time he doesn't kill the Green Goblin, how the fuck was any of this Cap's fault? Fucking blame Adolph for starting WW2 then!
>>153772737a reason to live my mugga
>>153773071>>153773057the real happy ending
>>153772998i don't wanna read that ultimate impact
>>153773188That is a silly way to get back at Apocalypse.
>>153773231Kamala SHOULD know better.
>>153773282>>153773295Get wrecked, clone Mr. Sinister
>>153772745Emma becoming Tsundere over Tony has been the best shit ever.
>>153772737"Not many days left"Many is subjective
>>153773084He and Nuke are big boss and ocelot to Steve and Logan solid snake and raiden, with Ross literally representing the patriots.That entire event is a expy to MGS.
>>153775414Captain America has been ripping off MGS for a while now, the run before JMS literally had the Philosophers as the main villains of the run
>>153772737Sounded like he was planning to unalive himself
>>153774365It's the usual hack shit of dumping on Cap because he wears the symbol of a lot of people's woes. Unironically would have been better if he had no enmity for Cap but also told him this was pointless because Cap is only trying clear his own mind Also Cap should have been trying to find these men to get their stories told and get them compensation and health care
>>153775414>That entire event is a expy to MGSMeanwhile Snyder is doing a much better and (mostly) coherent MGS rip off with Absolute Batman, Christ I'm actually complementing Scott fucking Snyder that's how fucking meh this Armageddon shit is
>>153773369>Biological aids on top of techno-organics aidsGo get a doctor, Cable.
>>153776215Absolute Batman is more of a Resident Evil rip-off
Maybe if I just started from the beginning but as a former X-men reader do people even like this shit? Why is this worse than Krakoa which wasn't even that great.
>>153776812Little of both with more RE recently. I mean when Slade/Deathstroke was first brough up he looks almost exactly like Liquid Snake cosplaying as Big Boss. Meanwhile Absolute Scarecrow is very obviously inspired Skullface if he was an RE villain. Anyway who knows maybe Armageddon will be good but I don't have any hope for it
>>153773071I know it probably wont last but im a sucker for villain redemption for old characters.
Damn dude daken is an xman now? Didn’t he used to straight up rape and then kill people? What villain hasn’t joined them, they might as well let bastion join at this point
>>153773473Looked it up and too much difference and he would be total nobody to be a cable villain.I guess this is some new thing, bio organic virus to go with techno organic virus.
>>153777246It started back when he and X-23 started hanging out, he became like this overprotective big brother for her and GabbyOver time the X-Books just kept using him as Wolverine's bisexual Japanese son who flirts with everyone, and less as the murderous middle-aged bastard with rape powersOne writer even decided to retcon his pheromone powers so that they don't force people to do anything they didn't already want to do. Because that's still somehow consent?Seeley's take on him at least still acknowledges that he's kinda fucked up
>>153773369>>153773473It kinda looks like the Cyclops clone with Inhuman genes Sinister made during the Terrigenocide era
>>153772998>>153773469I'm going with Sentry Box tooThere's that Armaggedon teaser with a flying dude with a cape and a star on his chest
>>153772652Bitch he just asked you get to a chair for an old guy, fucking hell. No wonder I avoid X-Men like the plague.
>>153772720How the fuck is any of that Steve Roger's fault?
>>153772693shit that kid lost his marbles
>>153772745can we just fucking get rid of nina and gay kitty already?
>>153772998a half dozen eggs
>>153772652how is his request sexist? like wtf>>153774351the same reason Magik doesn't idk
>>153772700gay and black, no curing that
>>153772542This is poop.

>>153774935>TonyAt least read the final panel anon.
>>153773369Looks like that bio organic virus that Beast infected a whole nation with.
>>153777246>Damn dude daken is an xman now?He's not though? Been in X-factor, Marauder and X-force right now but technically not yet an "X-men".
>>153773469Yup.
>>153772745>emma fagbait>stopitgetsomehelp.gif
>>153777172eh were mostly just waiting it out for the next era at this point.
>>153773369Remember Remender’s Iron Nail, the SHIELD undercover agent in Mao Zedong’s China who personally depowered Steve Rogers that started the 2010’s slow burn that ultimately ended in Secret Empire 2: Loli CosmicCube -chan Boogaloo? https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Ran_Shen_(Earth-616)
>>153773046Based,fuck muties
>>153777246Bastiom actually became Protect All Mutants during Cullen Bunn’s MotherVine storyline. Turns out that while Bastion’s mission in life is to kill x-gene mutants (holdover programming from when half of him was still OG Nimrod before it fused with his other half , which was OG MasterMold) , he can’t do that at all if they’re all literally extinct , so they always have to be at a certain level of population for Bastion to maintain his own prime directive in order for him to remain relevant (i.e. Have a reason to continue living) . In other words , Bastion’s true callimg is to be X-gene mutantkind’s sports-hunting game warden KEK
>>153778105LOL

>>153773818>>153773828>>153773838>>153773855This interraction is irritating me a lot>"He doesn't need fixing!"Yes he fucking does, he doesn't have fucking legs. There's literally no reason for him to decline a potential solution that can fix his spine and give him legs. There's a fuckton of non-mutants who can help with that that Rogue can recommend if his problem is specifically with mutants. In fact, the most annoying part here is that there's still no easy access mass-produced technology to regrow or at least replace limbs in MU despite hundreds of super-geniuses specializing in advanced biology, power-giving, robotics and cybernetics. This screams of that retarded "cripple pride" rhetoric.>"You can't unactivate his mutant power"What stops him from wearing a handy power-blocking collar if he hates his powers so much? It fucking pisses me off when characters pretend to ignore the existence of any power- and specifically x-gene blocking items when it comes to people WHO WANT THEIR POWERS FUCKING GONE
>>153792923Its not supposed to be logical, he's a guy who has nothing but regret, depression, and hate left in his life. Its far easier to vent and continue on the same way than accept help from someone he despises. Power blocking collars are a stupid concept btw and shouldn't have been introduced.
