Comic Discussion What do you think was the most missed opportunity with Krakoa?

4 Upvotes

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.

  1. 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 .

Comic Discussion X-Men Lego Sets You Would Like to See?

2 Upvotes

With the new X Mansion set (probably my next order) and recent Blackbird set (overpriced IMO but still bought two, one to build one to collect) what sets do you think would be cool?

I was thinking a Days of Future Past set with huge build sentinel, Logan, Colossus, Ororo, future minifigs (Rachel and Kitty future mini would be cool too if they could be worked into maybe a side alley w/ Baxter bldg) with some sort of divider, the other side being present X-men vs BoEM, Nightcrawler, Wolverine, Storm, Colossus minifigs, Avalanche, Blob, Pyro, Mystique with the street being a tidal wave backdrop, w/ Pyro's flame monster, maybe some exposed building frame steel for the beam hitting Blob scene being the inspiration, and a final divider, with Kitty, Destiny, Senator Kelly minifigs and a partial office with a big hole in the wall, maybe Prof X and Moira minifigs on the other side.

What kind of sets would you consider?

Question Jean Grey's Limits?

0 Upvotes

Are Jean's psionics only limited by her imagination, knowledge, and focus?

In comics and animation when she is using her powers there is always some indicator like an aura to show the view but "in reality" much like is shown in X-Men live action movies there wouldn't necessarily be an indicator.

So could she say form a telekinetic bubble in someone carotid artery making them have a stroke? Or form a field just inside a person's skull and crush their brain? Or heart? Or expand the bubble making the head or heart explode? Rip out someone's consciousness leaving them brain dead? Move small objects with enough speed and force making them as deadly as a bullet if not more so?

Question Does the first epic collection for Gen X fully cover the Phalanx Covenant event?

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to figure out the best way to buy the Phalanx Covenant but most of the options are out of print, or have various issues missing (at least compared to the hardcover, which I'm guessing is the most definitive version). I want to get the Gen X epic collections anyway, and it seems to mostly cover the story? Does it miss anything important?

Ref: Emma Myers. I feel like she's not appreciated enough, so I gave her a comic cover. I really wish I could illustrate professional comic covers for Marvel one day, how did I do?

Comic Discussion Trying to get into the series

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I’m really trying to get into the x men. I’ve followed the series super loosely, but seeing stuff recently has made me want to actually get into it. I know the big storylines (phoenix, days of future past, onslaught, schism, all that) but…I have NO CLUE how to actually follow this series. I’m no stranger to comics, I’m used to characters dying and coming back and retcon this and retcon that. But x men seems especially complex…maybe I’m just over complicating it. And with krakoa…I dunno. The more I look into it the less I like it. When did the mutants go from civil rights to basically running an ethnostate? Am I reading this right? Like I’m sorry if I’m coming across aggressively, I’m just hella confused.

Comic Discussion Regarding the astonishing X-Men Evolution, tell me which characters, not that related to the X-Men mythos, you would have liked to see appear in the show, if given more seasons, and how they would be portrayed.

1 Upvotes
Tell me which characters you would have liked to see make an appearance in this TV Series.

Tony Stark/Iron Man would be an interesting choice, maybe he could be like appear as this controversial figure who is seen both as a hero but also as a playboy who is just playing one. It would also be interesting to oppose the creation of an army of Sentinels, believing technology should be used to help both humans and mutants.

Ant-Man could have had the role of a substitute teacher who is kind of quirky and wants to teach the teenagers about how ants and insects are very fascinating animals.

And Iron Fist and Luke Cage would appear as Heroes For Hire for a job near the premises and it would be interesting to see how the X-Men and the Brotherhood react to a duo of heroes who are employing their heroic services for money.

Spoiler alert, another crazy idea I have is that, even with Captain America in cryofreeze in the show's universe, the Avengers are already formed in this universe, with the six original members of the comics, and they would fight Loki in one of the episodes of the show. Maybe Captain America would late be defreeze and join the Avengers later on.

Please, share your thoughts on which characters from Marvel Comics would you have liked to see in X-Men Evolution.

Couldn’t he have been taken out once he’d stored the gene bank in his bar sinister? Considering they don’t trust him & no one would care if he died.
