    Ever notice when a character becomes corrupted and become a bad guy the way they talk is always changed to resemble that of some evil king? "I can't stand it any more" becomes "I can tolerate it no longer!".
    Is there some supernatural being out there in charge of downloading eloquent speech patterns into evil leader heads?

    "This isn't peace, this is fear" -Captain America in The Winter Soldier. That's the quote that I thought of when I saw how the Phoenix Five were *helping* the world, they may have good intentions but so does Doctor Doom and the MCU version of Thanos yet we still see those two as bad guys

    Cyclop was right in my opinion they been through hell and back, saved the world a couple of times. But humanity still put walls in front of them, hated them, hunted them, and feared them. They looked the other way and still chose to save humanity because it was the right thing to do. Now here comes Captain America, he may be the the first ever superhero, but he wasn't there when the X-men needed him the most. Where was he when they were hunted, killed or put restrictions on them? Also where was Tony when the mutant started losing everything? I love Cap and Stark and but i love the X-men more and they really needed a way to bring back the mutant race from extinction after house of M.

    • @kurtlindner
      @kurtlindner 7 лет назад +24

      I feel it's beyond unfair to argue, "Where were you when we needed you?" simply because -the decision for The Avengers, or anyone else to help simply isn't their own, it's the writers -and let's be honest, if the stories were real, Cap would be helping mutants, so would Tony. If the stories were real, they wouldn't be nearly as compelling, sometimes a compelling story simply uses a weak plot point to propel the story forward.
      I can't fault any character for not helping the mutant cause, because to not help is out of character for many who would, it's the writers who need to be called out for not working it into the stories.

    Cyclops was the good guy in this. When cyclops got the Phoenix power he helped people. Cyclops with the Phoenix power stopped world hunger by given water and food where there was none. Cyclops was going to make sure there was no more earthquakes. Cyclops gave endless energy to people so humans could build things as long as it wasn't weapons of death. Cyclops went to the world leaders stated he was going to do much more and in the end all he wanted was peace.

    • @Memoirs_OF_Rebirths

      Isn't the real question that hulk stopped the Sentry to a standstill. I was satisfied at that moment. Then came Hulk's entourage and beat a dead horse and added a twist to redem the illuminati. Then a space canon. The sentry was enough, you can trash sentry but hey he is more fun to me than Hyperion.

      Jesus Christ, the poor girl wasn't supposed to survive the Dark Phoenix saga, but they brought her back, and then they keep repeating the cycle over and over to the point of making her a JOKE.
      Jean doesn't deseve the fate that she got, in fact she would either DIE permanently or then become the big S of Marvel. NEITHER OF THIS THINGS HAPPEN!
      The Fans can't let her go, and Marvel doesn't know what too do with her...
      I know what i would do.
      I would make her solo! Far away from X-men, far away from Earth, BUT NOT WITHOUT Phoenix force, this power belongs TO HER, she has THE RIGHT for this power, and his HER RIGHT to hold it.

      @dawudjibreel6075 5 лет назад +7

      Not weird at all. It was strategic. They did it to make the Xmen film rights less valuable to Fox to the point where Fox would be more willing to sell the film rights back to Marvel. Think about it. By producing xmen comics Marvel were helping to promote the movies and maintain public interest in those films which would hardly make Fox want to return the rights.

      X-Men and Spider-Man are MARVEL. When Marvel almost went bankrupt, they redesign Marvel in the 90's, no one gave a crap about Avengers (other than in Infinity Gauntlet stories where they are pretty much sacrifical lambs), Onslaught was Boss Villain at that time, and Spider-Man was not Iron Boy Junior.

    What I didn’t care for with The Avengers is that they showed up and ordered them to hand her over- they came to fight. They didn’t trust those who had experience with The Phoenix and came across like superhero police abusing their power and position.
    There’s no understanding of it, they just want to hit it. Scott was on a path to becoming a villain but he had proper prompting and help from the outside world.
    And worst, there was no remorse on behalf of The Avengers once all was said and done that The Phoenix, once in the hands of Hope, WASN’T A THREAT!!
    Stark breaks it apart before it made it to hope- they created an even bigger problem because fear clouded good judgement.
    Also, Hope was brought up by Cable and I believe she was therefore much more mentally equipped than Jean. Also, she’s a part of the force- there was all of these assumptions made about Hope and mutants without involving mutants until it was time to deal with them.

    Good to see support to Cyclops, i think that if the phoenix 5 would have not been pushed(seriously, would you poke someone with anger issues[phoenix' implicit instability] and say it's their fault?), good things could have come out, as Reed Richards pointed out to cap and tony.
    As Coates portrayed on the latest volume of black panther, both sides can't be right and can't be worng, and as long you don't sit to talk and make a point that integrate the best of both you are doomed to fight instead of growing.

    Can I ask a question? Why did you leave out the part of the story where the Phoenix 5 solve the majority of HUMANITIES problems while also creating their Utopia?
    To me this was a significant part of the story because the Phoenix 5 were legitimately making the world a much better place with their powers and you only commented on what they did for themselves. And when you remove that context it makes some later actions seem much less justifiable than I think they are.
    Just curious and would like a response please.

    Avengers Vs X-men was one of the things that got me into comics. I was looking to dive into comics and all i knew was i had to have some X-Men and this storyline had just finished. Not to mention the Avengers movie hype was still very real so this felt like the right thing to do. I ended up buying the whole run in single issues off a guy who overheard me asking about it in a comic shop by my job and i regret nothing.

    Dark Phoenix was stated up in Marvel series 2 cards in the 90s. I always assumed this reflected the stats of the Phoenix force hindered by a physical body. Still strong enough to lay down the Xmen of the 90s, but not Galactus level. She could life over 100 tons, travel speed of light, standard human agility, stamina equal to about a week or so at max, durability equal to Thor and Hulk (below Silver Surfer), above normal IQ, highest level mental abilities and highest level energy projection (that the stat allowed) and decent fighting ability equal to a soldier/ninja. Years later it seems once they dove more into the Phoenix as an entity without a host, she challenged players like Galactus and better.

      Erez Mor Well I meant in the sense that he actually was in the process of fixing the problems of humans and mutants.

      Erez Mor What I mean is while Cyclops and the other X-Men had the power of the Phoenix force they created an era of unprecedented peace, ended world hunger, etc while Cap fought them tooth and nail.

    Hope was never a necessary character. They already had Rachel Summers. Remember her? The one that the Phoenix itself said is "the one true phoenix." ? The one who beat down Galactus like a red headed stepchild?
    Yeah, it's like that. (Excalibur #61)

    Rob, please do a break down of the X-men Anime. I know its technically not a comic per say, but Im pretty sure I spotted Hisako Ichiki(Armor) in one of if not thee first panel of House of X #1 and I was under the impression she was created for the Anime series(correct me if Im wrong, I can take it!) so I thought it would be cool to hear how you would tie in that series with the comics in the break down. I believe they stuck pretty close to the original/authentic Phoenix saga in the prelude of the first episode, which as Im sure you know would be a first considering that no medium since the actual comic book has gotten it right(ie X-Men the animated series from the 90's, X-Men 3 from Fox, or the Dark Phoenix with Sansa Stark etc.) I think it would make a great vid and Im sure your fan base would love it.

      +Bad Philospher It's a figure of speech. Bendis went on after this event to make Scott seem like a bad guy. Totally inconsistent with the character, and contrary to the over a decade of character building and bad assery that was Scott since I feel Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men run but I can understand how some might say even earlier than that. I.e. the actual character of Scott died during this event, and right before he got rid of the visor. I blame Bendis's admitted flaw of not reading previous runs of comics that takes over. He pretty much based the Cyclops he continued the X-Men with based off of AvX which was also an inconsistent portrayal of Scott b/c he was possessed by a universal all-powerful entity. *end rant*
