People getting hurt doesn't actual matter if it doesn't actually effect how he does thing. It's just as uncritical as saying surviving means infallible.

After Byrne leaves the books are a mess for years. They don't really recover until Big Time.

It was solid during JMS now it's a mess as they really don't know what to do with the guy.

If you're describing things in bad faith you can make literally anything in comics sound stupid.

What if, like, the ultimate good guy turned out to be secretly evil and destroyed everything by making up a giant psychic squid, which he then blamed on his naked blue god buddy, and was only found out by a psychopath rapist murderer? What then, huh?!

What if a crazy guy who decided to walk around being a vampire after his parents got killed got old? What then?!

Lol way to be a defensive little baby.

Maybe someday Hickman-chan will notice you and I will be the silly one.

Bummer everyone brings up those two panels, and not how he was best buds with Reed Richards, or how he turned the Hulk into a happy child when he was around.

The x-thread are a bunch of grumpy whiners. All-new and extraordinary are good and Uncanny is ok.

I like the team and setup for Uncanny and the writing is good, it's just lackluster art.

Don't listen to this man, the only good X-men book is Wolverine and 92 if you have a lot of nostalgia for the cartoon.

Everything else is just terrible.

Perhaps you should read the comic before oh, I dunno, pretending you know literally anything about it beyond what you've read in this thread.



The problems you are having are conceptually not with the writing itself so reading the book would have no effect on this conversation.

Though i might pick it up you are actually selling me on it well. I thought it was going to be generic teen drama #100 and it seems he is avoiding that crap for now.

It would be kinda stupid, just like how this storyline is kinda stupid, but yes it wouldn't be "offensive" or disrespectful to Falcon's creators or whatever horseshit people want to throw around. Falcon is a particularly bad example because he was already retconned into being an evil pimp for a while, which was rapidly undone, because it was really stupid.

When did you become the arbiter of offensiveness? I must have missed the memo.

Also yeah that Falcon story was pretty offensive.

I don't think they were consistently drawing parallels between him and Magneto for no reason. He went from a superhero team leader to head of an independent nation-state to the field commander of something he persisted in calling the "Extinction Team" within a relatively short time, and kept making bolder and more worrying moves in the pursuit of mutant freedom.

That was on purpose yeah but everything he did was completely sincere towards those goals.

Hey, give the Inhumans their own comic for 50 years and we'll see how well off they are in non-convoluted plot lines. Ten years from now Black Bolt could be married to a clone of Medusa who's actually another inhuman who's terrigenesis was to make her a physical clone of Medusa in every way!

Do to Hickman I think Black Bolts status is already convoluted.
