The race is down to three. We all need to rally behind Juggs or else it'll be Cannonball. And none of us want that, right?

The only one I can't be enthusiastic about is Prodigy. He's one of those "constant shots of the smart guy back home in front of the big monitor coordinating everything" types and it's more exciting when Cyclops is doing that on the fly while knocking fools over with eye beams. I voted for Big Juggs but would be equally happy if it was Frenzy, which I gather is super unlikely but whatever, I fuckin loved her in... Legacy, I think? When she fell in love with Scott, that book.

Incidentally, if you missed it this week, Scarlet Witch #2 has Storm just fully casting a magic spell with her powers, which was fun and also kind of finally addressing a lot of the "Yeah Storm just has magic, actually" build-up over the years. Maybe it'll be expanded on even further in other books?

I'm glad he's cashing in doing covers and character designs but he's a top tier storyteller too and it's been too long since he did interiors.

I feel like at the end of Sins of Sinister I'm gonna need a flowchart of which Sinisters are which and what, like, spade Sinister's whole arc has been in the story compared to Club or diamond.

I don't think this is the story for that. I think we'll get that afterwards. Sins is like broad strokes of what happens when Sinister wins. Though it really does look like this is Destiny playing everyone. We already know that Mystique doesn't live in this timeline, so she's not being fully truthful to Orbis Stellaris. Destiny is going to have to convince Sinister to reset the timeline and not move forward with his plans. They have to be on the same side.

Not quite, Destiny's visions are not infallible, she sees many divergent possibilities. She could be honest and this a timeline she does not see Mystique's death in yet.

I think this is the Empire of the Red Diamond future she saw, since that followed Judgment Day. It ends with the Storm System, which I think we can see a path to already. So I believe she chose this path because she saw it was one where she can manipulate everyone into giving her what she wants, and that's a good outcome for both mutants and for her and Mystique.
