20 years and I still have no fucking idea how this works
here's to 20 more!
>>154619751Every time he used his "gravity" powers it was actually electromagnetism.The one time he used his "healing" powers it was just him disabling the nanobots swimming in the X-Men's bloodstream.It was all an elaborate con-job. Because Magneto.
>>154620253but zorn comes back later and is an xman currentlywhich makes no fucking senseunless xorn was having like a schizophrenic episode where he thought he was magneto
>>154621180There are 3 Xorns - Magneto and twin brothers, one of which was kidnapped by Magneto and later died leaving the other twin to become the new Xorn
>>154619751https://comicsalliance.com/xorn-history-comic-lbfa/
>>154621459So... Xorn was a magical construct of Magneto who thought he was the real Magneto and was pretending to be Kuan-Yin Xorn....I guess that will do.
>>154620253It's actually completely airtightEverything we hear about Xorn is from Xorn himself, who is Magneto, or Sublime who is influencing Magneto's actionsIt's only because Austen wanted to keep Xorn around that it becomes screwed up and the explanation isn't helped by him being one of the most dogshit writers that ever got on the books
>>154619751Well aren’t you a cute and illiterate little dumdum
>>154621575Austen fucked the X-Men like no other writer except Bendis did
If I was an X-Men writer I would bring back Xorn and then have it be that Xorn was always Xavier this entire time.
>>154621888House of M is the X-book equivalent to OMD/Civil War
Xorn was a disguise Magnetic used to infiltrate the X-Men. Later revealed to be under Sublime's control.That was supposed to be the end to the character but editorial ordered Chuck Austin to create a new Xorn while allowing Claremont to bring back Magneto and straight up allowing Claremont to get revenge on Morrison by having Magneto declare that Planet X was done by an imposter.Bendis didn't like fans assuming Wanda resurrected her dad so he declared that Xorn was real and now an energy entity and had him possess a random guy and kill Alpha Flight, then possess Magneto again. Meanwhile Austen got rid of Xorn 2 first chance he could and editorial banned writers from doing anything else outside Keiron Gillen doubling down on Magneto not doing Planet X.Then Hickman fucked shit up using two Xorns in Ultimates and Xorn 2 came back again as an X-Men ally
>>154619751X-Men just sucks. It's such an inane franchise.
>>154622179The only good thing to come out of House of M was X-Factor Investigations
>>154619751jean from the past from the future being xornita was kino
>>154621180Xorn was popular, editorial didn't like what Morrison did and it was likely deliberately shitting on his ideas in revenge for him going back to DC the way he did.
>>154622224Like I said I'm fairly sure it was to get back at Morrison. Morrison didn't get along with Quesada, Jemas or editorial in general. He quickly got sick of them trying to micromanage his scripts so he'd submit them as late as possible to prevent it. When DC offered him a chance to jump he took it which Quesada found out when he showed up at a DC PANEL at SDCC which led to Quesada yelling at and cussing out Morrison on the con floor. Morrison told him "Fuck you and fuck your boss" and that was it.Not too long later, the Xorn/Magneto shit happens and then a year or so later House of M happens and nukes the Morrison status quo.
>>154622224This sounds very stupid and not very professional.
>>154619751>how this worksit doesnt you nincompoop nobody pumps magnetos tires hes fictional highbrow comics are too smart for you do you even own a house you poor
>>154619751I'm confused why the genocidal maniac wasn't allowed to be a genocidal maniac anymore. Magneto is worse than Hitler. He does not belong on the X-Men.
>>154619751Magnetism, son.
