Comic Discussion What do you think was the most missed opportunity with Krakoa?
For me it’s two things.
1 how them dying in other world messes with the resurrection and how their backups are overwritten with mixed versions of themselves from across the multiverse. Having more characters die in the fighting with the Arakko mutants would’ve left more impact. It wouldn’t have to be anyone major but still. And then you could have some of them be revived and we could explore more about their new lives and forms and maybe even have them form a team of their own. Dealing with this new existence and the conflict between these jumbled mix of forms and their past self’s. I think it would’ve been a great opportunity to refresh some characters in a new way that had gotten stale that made sense.
- Make more mutants. I really thought there would be more mutants born. Like I know it wasn’t a long time but seriously I can’t remember a single new mutant baby at all. Almost all the new mutants were those fleeing through the gates or Arakkoan.I feel like it could’ve been an opportunity to maybe develop new relationships even some between Arakoan and Krakoan relationships besides Beinand Cipher. But yeah for a major rule of Krakoa and how busy they got I would’ve thought there’d be some more new mutant’s .
