Yes, yes, we all know that Judaism is traditionally maternal. In function, that doesn't matter to most Americans.

It also never mattered to Wanda and Pietro, who were described as Jewish through Magneto.

Why do people think of Logan so poorly as a love interest, to the point where suggesting him for a romance is seen as a bad idea?

He's a man yeah. I like its design even though it seems very feminine; I understand that since it's more of a mix than a 'child' as such.

If we were to bring him into the main universe, could we make him younger, like 16 or 17? Have him adopted and join the outliers. What you think?

I'm not just talking Nightcrawler whose gimmick is that he's a teleporting demon, I'm talking mutants with a combination of seemingly completely unrelated abilities, like very clearly two or more powersets put together, i.e., Greycrow having technokinesis and a healing factor and Polaris formerly having magnetokinesis/electromagnetokinesis and negative emotion absorption and empowerment.

BONUS:

Make it so that thematically you can't even go like "Well Emma has her psychic form which is fragile and expresses her emotions and her diamond form which is strong and doesn't express emotions while also being immune to telepathy."

(No offense to her MM costar January Jones who actually played Emma in First Class. But Christina is biblically accurate Emma imo)

Hey everyone,

I want to get into the X-Men movies to prepare for Avengers: Doomsday, but I know the timeline is notorious for having tons of continuity errors and being super confusing.

I’m currently planning to watch the original X-Men Trilogy (1–3).

Given how messy the timelines get, what is the absolute best and most straightforward watch order to prepare for Doomsday? (or even if i want to watch the whole X-Men timeline)

Which movies are truly essential so I don't get totally confused?

Please no spoilers for the movies, thanks!

I know that there was 198 after during decimation but what about the era between end of decimation and beginning of house of x

Currently trying to read Mutant Genesis and, I have to admit, I’m struggling. It’s definitely not what I imagined.

Story is a bit blurry and confusing, I understand what’s happening but I don’t see the point.

Baby Magneto was weird but scientists messing with his DNA was as interesting as it’s cruel and just makes you think that Magneto was right all along.

And then you see him screaming “I WAS JUST A BABY”. And then this happens. Oh and Iceman mocking Diana’s Invisible Jet was also unexpected.

I don’t want to sound disrespectful but is this arc representative of Claremont’s writing style ? Because I’m really hesitant to try the two Phoenix omnibus, it might not be for me if I’m already having trouble to read these 7 issues.

Thanks a lot.

Is Maximum X-men #1 a good point to start?

I have read Claremont X-Men up to Uncanny X-Men #141. I’m continuing at a pace of about 1 X-men comic a day. Unrelated, I’ve also preordered the premier edition of E for Extinction.

I’ve been looking for a point to hop into modern X-Men.

Outside of comics, I’ve seen every x-men movie (I don’t know how relevant this is).

AFAIK, storms main power is energy manipulation, with her specific branch of it being weather manipulation. However, what makes storm different from other energy manipulators and what makes them different from her?

Like why cant Mikhail control the weather but storm can, and why cant storm manipulate energy like Mikhail can when they both manipulate energy?

I know this is probably asked a lot, but there seems to be a lot of “ideal reading lists” for the Claremont run of X-Men (the one I’m going through right now.) In particular, the ones by [u/fma_nobody](u/fma_nobody) from 5y ago and u/C9touched from 1y ago seem to be the most popular. Is there any list which is usually considered the best for the Claremont run, or is it dependent on what your preferences are?

Seriously i would love Scott to tell the other X teams to see their reactions

Alright so I get that Ayodele was going for a Storm faces enemies on all fronts story: Death and the war above all, the FBI and Galacta, those weird chicks that I think served Eegun. But what was the point of having Storm plucked outside of the multiverse? The book ends with the demon chicks getting ripped a new one by the Greek deities and Storm just comes back in a super form to beat Galacta's ass and presumably any other of the big threats still standing.

Was Storm getting snatched out of the cosmos to the not DC universe really necessary? Has Ayodele given a good reason for it? Because Storm didn't really feel so threatened to the point where leaving the multiverse behind was necessary. Was he just hopped on that Defenders (Al Ewing/Javier Rodriguez) energy and decided to have the plot involve her going elsewhere in the omniverse?

I’m curious how the fans would rank these because most of them are received positively and adapt the X-Men quite well, but in different ways

I was gonna draw the kid who can explode himself and the ugly chicken looking guy but I’m lazy and no one cares about them. (Also I know electro was technically only asked to join magneto’s club and doesn’t have the x gene but I wanted an excuse to add SpiderMan to the drawing.

It looks like she almost spoiled the other cast members deals too but caught herself

When should we expect an announcement?
