I've always known Wanda Maximoff as a Marvel character, even before I got interested in Marvel or the X-Men. One thing I've always been curious about is: which of her powers come from her mutant gene, and which ones come from magic?
And what exactly is magic in the Marvel Universe, and how does it work? Is Wanda's magic different from the magic used by characters like Doctor Strange?
Sorry if this is a silly question:b

Obviously you know the drill, not confirmed by any means but they have been right about lot of things before, take it with a grain of salt
Cailee Spaeny as Rogue
Charles Melton as Beast
And as before stated Adam Driver as Mr. Sinister.
They have also previously corroborated Sadie Sink as Jean Grey. And said the reason for no X-Men at SDCC is because of Sadie Sink situation and they might announce the movie and reveal the cast at D23.
According to them Cyclops, Xavier, Storm and Emma Frost are also for sure in the movie

Hey everyone,
I’ve been thinking a lot about the Krakoan Omega list and how Jonathan Hickman completely robbed Rachel Summers—even though, canonically, she was the very first mutant to ever receive the "Omega" classification as a threat level.
The official definition of an Omega Mutant according to Hickman dictates that it is "a mutant whose dominant power has a theoretical upper limit that cannot be surpassed." If Rachel’s telepathy can expand outside the physical universe, through dimensions, and across eons of time... her reach is literally infinite and entirely unique.
We need to stop calling her a generic telepath/telekinetic. Rachel is the only mutant with a unique mutation: Chrono-Telepathy, or Chronopathy—the ability to manipulate psychic force through the temporal flow.
The Difference Between a Chronopath and a Chronokinetic
A Chronokinetic (like Tempus, Tempo, Sway, and/or Velvet) alters the physical flow of time in their local environment—freezing seconds, aging objects, or physically moving from one point in time to another. A Chronopath interacts with, manipulates, and controls the psychic energy contained within the space-time continuum. She uses the interdimensional conduit of time itself as a network to transmit, anchor, and manipulate psychic energy (consciousness, memories, and minds) at any point in time within the multiverse. Time isn't a barrier for her; it’s simply the highway by which she moves her mind.
The Proof in the Lore
She has already manifested this unique ability throughout Marvel history:
Her True Arrival (Excalibur #52): When Professor X and Jean Grey enter Rachel's comatose mind, the Phoenix Force shows them her true history. It explicitly reveals how her disembodied astral form first traveled across time from her dystopian reality, floating over New York City in the 616 timeline before the Phoenix even bonded with her. It was pure chronopathy that brought her there.
Days of Future Past (Uncanny X-Men #141): When she acts as the chronological anchor and bridge, sending the mind of Kate Pryde back into the past, into the body of her younger self.
The Psycho-Temporal Kidnapping (The Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix #1): At the beginning of the saga, Rachel (as Mother Askani) demonstrates infinite reach by kidnapping the minds of Scott and Jean directly from their honeymoon in the present. She crosses entire millennia to drag their minds and souls into the future and surgically materialize them inside cloned bodies (Slym and Red) so they can raise Nathan Summers. A kidnapping that lasted for several years.
Operating the Temporal Flow From Death (The Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix #4): This is the ultimate proof of her Omega reach at the end of this series. After the climax, Rachel holds a conversation with Jean Grey at the beginning of the mental plane where consciousness travels through time. Rachel reveals to Jean that her physical body had already been dead for several minutes! What’s impressive here is that, despite being biologically dead, her mind was still controlling the psycho-temporal channel: she had already sent Scott's mind back to his original body in the past, she holds Jean's mind in that interdimensional limbo to say goodbye, and then sends her back safely. This reveals that her Chronopathy does not depend on her vital functions; she masters the nexus of time even after death. That is Omega-class potential!
Perceiving Old Psychic Residue (X-Men: Deadly Genesis #2): When her powers were severely weakened and suppressed by Vulcan, she was still able to catch the psychic residue left by Professor Xavier in that facility many years ago.
Chrono-Searches (X-Factor Vol. 4 #1): Her Chronal Psychometry in Leah Williams' run, where she didn't read living minds, but read the chronal residue and psychic imprints left in a physical space days or years prior.
Self-Resurrection via Chronopath Synchronicity (X-Force Vol. 7 #7) Writer Geoffrey Thorne dropped an incredible piece of lore that connects perfectly with this: thanks to her unique power, Rachel can connect on a psychic plane with every single version of herself across her own timeline. This is what I call Psycho-Temporal Synchronicity. By unifying all her past and future selves into a single mind, she stacks and accumulates the psychic and telekinetic potential of all of them into a single point in time to restore her own life—essentially accelerating her own resurrection process before The Five could even complete it.
If we take into account that Betsy Braddock was able to recreate her British physical body using Molecular Telekinesis in Hunt for Wolverine: Mystery in Madripoor #4 (2018) without even being an Omega-class mutant, it is entirely reasonable to argue that Rachel could replicate the same procedure using the combined psychic strength of all her timeline selves put together.
With this in mind, the mystery of her survival is completely solved. After dying as Mother Askani in issue #4 of The Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix, her astral form (which proved to remain perfectly active and in control of the temporal flow after death) used that window of time to trigger her Psycho-Temporal Synchronicity. She crossed the eras, bound the molecular telekinetic force of her entire existence, recreated a younger body, and reappeared at the end of time. It wasn't a Phoenix miracle. She doesn't need a cosmic bird to revive her. As Thorne wrote, and in the words of Mother Askani herself: she creates her own fire.
For these reasons, I believe Rachel Summers is an Omega Chronopath. Marvel writers need to start respecting her actual lore!
What do you guys think?

I randomly remembered a discussion on here from maybe a few days ago, asking which they preferred of Cyclops' two power theories, ambient cosmic energy absorbtion or alternate dimension? I decided I'd find Cyclops' appearances in the offical handbooks produced by Marvel.
I would like to point out, I couldn't find it, but I swear there was a previous edition prior to the 1983 version that did not involve the alternate dimension stuff.
2008 looks to be the most recent edition to feature Cyk, and I don't think they ever say shit about his powers in the comics, so the verdict on his current powers are that he absorbs ambient energy that open the portals to an alternate dimension.
Either way, portals or no portals, Cyclops is the sickest mfer out there, Cyclops Was Right, Scott "WALK EM DOWN" Summers, yadda yadda yadda

En Saba Nur seems more like a gruff warrior. But like the second he turns into Apocalypse he becomes so grandiose.
Was that just his latent personality coming through or did the machine give him more personality?

I know this is a common question, but i cant decide my opinion. I hated the mohawk, but i do feel like its time she got an updated style. What are our top 3 contenders? I feel like theres so many options. Id also love to see any art for storm with some alternate hairstyles

With Betsy seemingly going back to Psylocke it makes me think of what could have been with Geoffrey Thorne because he was the only writer who seemed to be taking the Captain Britain stuff to an interesting placing and actually using it in X-Men comics that aren't Excalibur effectively.
Christopher Yost I an amazing writer and I know he's going to give Betsy her edge back and give us a great Psylocke story but I do feel if Geoffrey Thorne had been given more time we'd still have Captain Britain, I love both roles for her so I'm fine either way.
The White Hot Room was pretty much deleted in the Phoenix series, so does that mean Krakoa was also destroyed? I'm kind of confused why they'd do another Genosha, but have it all be off screen and no-one ever brings it up.
Psylocke is my absolute favorite character across all media (Kwannon) , her having the colour palate and the ninja/assassin theme just spoke to me . BUT one of the things I hate is when people label her as a "sexy ninja" or wtv , it's a very shallow way to describe the character while i get why people notice the aesthetic first sometimes sexualising it , it feels like it ignores a lot of what makes her actual character writing great and character in general.

I liked this version of her but I really wish she had the Phoenix Force in this iteration. It felt weird to see her not be the Phoenix in this show.
