So is this actually happening in the main universe/timeline? I'm so confused
Especially since why should I care about anyone dying if Moira or the Resurrection squad can just reset death
I'd be more interested in them having to deal with Lady Death since she doesn't exactly like when people don't die
1. This does take place in the Main Marvel Universe and is happening right now.
2. Since the X Men were run out of Krakoa, they can't resurrect mutants the way they used to. The might not be able to do it at all since the 5 are either dead, separated or captured.
3. That would be dope.
@@comics_explained Just a note. She phases the grenades into the two guys chest! BRUTAL lol.
@@comics_explained thanks. All this DNA and reality/timeline altering storylines are starting to get hard to keep track of 😅
Especially when it's like one after another
@@comics_explainedI'm sad because the ultimate universe gave kitty pride ultra density and they won't do the same with main marvel. It slowed her down but it effectively gave her super strength.
At no time ever did Kitty retain any skills or training she had while being possessed by the mutant ninja master. This is why Logan trained her in the ways of the Ninja. Oguns influence was completely gone and Kitty retained nothing outside of what Logan taught her.
If i had a dollar for everytime Marvel did a Mutant massacre story, I'd be rich
5 dollars ain't rich
If I had a dollar for every time I quit reading a X Men book because I saw MS Marvel in it, I'd have some $ myself.
@@shadowx8145but five is a LOT of massacre's
Well, technically Marvel got more than one dollar for each mutant massacre that they published, and yes, they're rich, that's why they keep doing it.
They kind of had it coming this time.
So, "Orchis", ORCHIS-trated an attack??
Comic book writing generates its own jokes.
My friend: you bow to no one.
@@comics_explained Kung Pow Chicken
I wonder how Orkus feels about all this
💀☠️💀☠️
@@Wylde_Starr UNIVERSE X, PARADISE X.
X-Men fans: “For five minutes, could the mutant population not get annihilated? FOR FIVE MINUTES!”
Really hate these writers genociding mutants all the time.
Funny how in so many stories where the X-Men get wiped out, the story almost always starts with "Professor X lost control and now Mutantkind is endangered"
You’d think he’d learn a lesson by now wouldn’t you? Pity the writers won’t let him.
Bobby shouldn't need a plot device to come back from the dead. His physical form has been destroyed before, and he has reformed from the vapor in the air. He has hitchhiked in the body of someone whose powers turn them into fire, he has physically resisted the juggernaut and turned his own body into liquid or vapor on multiple occasions...
I was 'bout to say
True but I think Nimrod did something to disable or reduce his mutant abilities, he seemed to be struggling to hold a physical form before he died.
I don't think he'll stay dead though, give it like 3 issues he's probably on his way
@@jaycub8547 he came back in this issue. He mentioned some kind of molecular napalm to dissolve his physical form, but a physical form isn't something that Bobby needs.
@NikolaiManning
I think the writers just wanted an excuse to revive through the power of love!!! This is one of those thanks, I hate it, moments.
I miss the goofy iceman that wasn’t OP or immortal.
Just once I want to see all these anti mutant groups to get bodied even nimrod get his butt whipped
Yea this mutants getting massacred is getting real old. It's been old since the early 2000's but it's worn out its welcome.
Right cause to me it never really made sense cause mutants are the most powerful groups of ppl if they wanted to they could take over and kill everyone over night I felt like that’s was sins of sinister shower cause they basically took over the world overnight defeated all their enemies killed majority of superheroes n then u get these stories where they just hopelessly outmatched but guys with guns and nearly indestructible robot
They did, it's called Sins of Sinister
Every comment in this post I couldn’t agree more with! I am so tired of Mutants being wiped out left and right. More so as said I don’t understand how you have this group of Mutants who are so insanely powerful, have saved the world if not the universe so many times over and yet get instantly one shot by these guys time and time again…you know the very same people who can’t seem to handle everyday common threats, but can lay waste to what might as well be a room full of Gods. Heck the very start of this whole thing years ago started with everyone in their original bodies getting killed.
You know out of all the things that they always bring back to status quo. while other things change and it seem to stay longer and longer. Just once I wish they would change up the status quo with the X-Men and actually give them a real shot. Like actually win get beyond the Battle of fighting for their existence and start fighting for something else.
Gee who would have thought letting in a guy named Mr. Sinister would have backfired like this.
It's almost as if his history of being a backstabbing villain could have indicated his inevitable betrayal!
You're speaking in riddles. Come, let's consult the mutant named Apocalypse. Surely, he too, will have rational thoughts on the idea of Mutantkind and how they should have an equal slice of society. Those ORCHIS fellows would love to have a rational discussion on Mutation with him. Surely, he and the others won't go insane and try to dominate all of Humanity, like that paper by Dr. Alia Gregor suggests!
@@omegaminoseer4539 Oh yeah, all of that is a good idea, and i wont give it any further thought. After all im sure ill be safe in the same room as Apocalypse!
I find it ridiculous that as time goes on more and more of these people that want to kill the mutants are even less human than they are. Cyborgs full on Androids and yet they're going after the mutants for what reason because of their powers. Seems a little hypocritical you're going to to go after people who are born with powers versus those who have money to buy a power suit or get injected back in the 40s. Like what actually constitute acceptance for the superhero community?
I mean you just described racism and we know how much it is still raging today sadly
@@xXVICK7ORXx Yeah but the real world is different than this. We're talking about people with powers who can at any point in time travel to anywhere in the universe or different reality or whatever. I mean there's so many different possibilities for all these heroes even the regular people if they were just willing to I don't know find a connect with one of these heroes and gain access to some of this Hero Tech and CHANGE the world.
@@SupermanBlack1987in case u didn't know this often evolves to all of the superhero community getting targeted. It just starts with mutants
“Battle not with monsters, lest you become a monster…”
Considering that the x-men are stand ins for marginalised groups, originally non white people and the civil rights movement and later other groups like the lgbt (the bad guys literally want to cure how they were born, it's never really been subtle). This level of hypocrisy and illogical reasoning and fear makes sense. It's as stupid in the real world as it is in the marvel universe.
Are the mutants the one of the most powerful forces on the planet or are they chumps? Find out in the next comic b/c it changes every issue
😂😂
I mean Bobby dying makes no sense because he can't die I remember that being one of his powers back then As long as there's moisture in the air he can reform and come back.
POV: you got nerfed so plot can happen
The xmen are such jobbers , I've never seen a super hero team job as much as they have. At this point who hasn't punked the xmen?
@@jouskehigaskita8835They're no Avengers that's FOR SURE 😅
Kitty Pryde has always been badass. She's always known just how lethal she could be and still held back due to her own personal ethics. I've always admired that about her.
And yet she was always incredibly LAME....bonus points for worst codename and THE worst costumes if you can even call them that
@@skarhead7597 You could just say, "I wasn't reading X-Men during the Claremont era." and leave it at that.
@@skarhead7597 which runs did you read of her character? Any character is LAME depending on which writer fumbles their development and arc.
@BCWasbrough basically. Whedon's run was the best for her anyways, bet you this poser didn't read NOT one of those issues from him or Claremont.
@@murk4552 Agreed!
No wonder I cant stand Nimrod.....the pic of Cyclops head blasted off by Nimrod is just sooo disrespectful to the original creators....there would be no X-Men without Cyclops
I wonder if Kitty will start using her ultimate universe abilities and start increasing her density as Dr. Doom claims her power is to become super strong/dense. She could potentially make a person so dense they could be crushed by their own weight.
im pretty sure in a What If or some alternate story line that Kitty killed Wolverine by phasing her hand into his brain and then unphasing it.
So wouldn't Vision be on the same level ability wise?
@@alexbeardsley751if I'm not mistaken that one was wolverine enemy of the state, it was pretty brutal she loses the hand too. It might have been the sorry where working stays brainwashed but i can't remember for sure.
Oh and considering he can phase would depend on of it's anything like kitty's of so ya and he'd be able to sacrifice body parts unphasing and just replace them lol
Or her older ability from "Days of Future Past" to literally walk on air. I miss that powerset ans it would work in her new Assassin role not flying but in a fighting situation being able to walk on air, go dense and intangible Shadowcat would be more deadly than Nightcrawler
@@sgpoet47 I like where Kitty basically phased that bullet shot from space in Astonishing X-Men, that’s when I started paying attention to Kitty Pride
I was a X-Men fan for decades mostly through the Chris Claremont /John Byrne era. However, I quit collecting them because the characters became unrecognizable to me. This was due to the mass production of what seemed like a billion X-Men titles , and due to all of the convoluted storylines that were written. Reading about this new storyline, and all the other recent storylines saddened me. I am saddened by the current storyline because it seems so unnecessarily violent, and Dark. The X-Men of this era and their stories are so dark, and they seem to lacks the main thread of hope, and family that the X-Men had during my youth and early adulthood. To me when I was reading the X-Men the stories were a about a small group of outcasts, and misfits who somehow became a family and they were dedicated to protecting a world that fear and hatred them. The X-Men were real to me, because each of them had breath and a pulse, they experienced tragedies and joy. However, whatever threat or darkness they faced they did so as a family. The X-Men stories now just seem to be nothing more than a money grab that lack depth or meaning.
Yeah they went full on Mortal Kombat this time.
Yes. I feel like the 90s were just a more hopeful time. The entertainment industry is just more gratuitous now.
@@thebluemeeple I totally agree with you!
@@thebluemeeple I’d be more accepting of it if it was something like a Mortal Kombat tie in or Dredd, because both properties are known for being more violent and dark I guess, but this is a mainstream superhero comic we are talking about, one that wasn’t always like this.
To be honest the way it’s been lately kinda put me off X-Men
I feel like this has happened to EVERY superhero after the 90's, and I honestly hope that the overly dark just to be overly dark stuff will somehow wear out its welcome for casual audiences so we can get more hopeful superhero stories again
Kitty Pryde breaking down after going on a rampage hit me pretty hard
Yeah, a lot of people don't realize how dangerous she is.
She was holding back for over 20 years.
I've always loved Kitty Pryde, Iceman, and Firestar. It's cool to see them getting some major focus.
I sort of remember from ‘Deadpool kills the Marvel universe’ that even he couldn’t outright kill Kitty. The best he could do was imprison her in a trap that kept her disoriented enough to be unable to phase out of it and hoped she’d die of starvation.
😮😂
Kitty and Vision have always been underestimated. Walk up to the Juggernaut while intangible, pass a finger or hand into his brain or heart, make just that hand solud, job done
That wouldn't work because of Juggernauts personal force field maybe now that cyttorack is no longer power him it might work but but not classic Juggernaut
@@shermanjackson872 im x-force #38 it is explicity stated that cytttorack wouldn't have been able to defend an attack like that
@@shermanjackson872 don't think his mystic protection prevents that, not that Ive seen any hint of
I’m still waiting for Jean to admit that she messed with Iceman’s mind to teach him a lesson.
Nah fr because I still don’t recognize this Iceman at all. Jean always messing with people’s minds
Isnt that some shit that Marvel pretends never happened?
@@bmagadaadd that to the list with Xavier having pedo thoughts of an underage Jean when she first joined the team and being why the first Krakoan X-Men team died on the island and he brainwashed Cyclops to forget in becoming the new team's leader for his own agenda to stop the war.
That was a different Jean from a "dead" universe so there's go turning back.
@@BestandGreatestperio Some ppl theorized than young Jean Grey have done exactly that with young Iceman and have created the version of him that most comic fans doesn't like, including most LGBT fans.
Iceman has self resurrection. He can survive in water’s liquid and gas forms. His self resurrection would possibly be delayed but never prevented.
When Kitty put Sabertooth in his place with her bare hands... She's been a 100% BA for a while!
PARADISE AND UNIVERSE X PLEASE!!! Robs biggest cliffhanger of all time is 5 years of waiting for him to finish the series he got us hooked on!!!!
lol you don’t give up do you?
@@comics_explainedgotta appreciate the persistence.
@@comics_explainedINJUSTICE! FINISH INJUSTICE!
@@comics_explainednone of us really did.
@@comics_explained and you only seem to cover stories other channels start getting traction
Keep in mind that during the KIB event, towards the end of it, it was alluded that ice dude was a frost giant. Frost giants have their own version of Valhalla in lore. That was where he was at.
Whoa.
I miss the days of good storytelling that didnt require copious amounts of graphic violence and gore.
Iceman couldn't stay dead for 2 issues and now he's pulling an Elsa lol.
This new run has me interested in X-Men again
We kind of expected Kitty Pryde to be one of the most powerful mutants, especially after the Black Vortex story where she could just dimension shift.
Thank you for adding the specific issues you're covering to the description of the video. Please continue doing that!
It seems like the Bobby Drake thing was just the writers letting us know that as long as his molecules can reform, he can't really die. So the only way to stop Ice Man is to pull a "Cronos maneuver" and chop him up and isolate the pieces.
Fighting a Kitty Pride that's willing to kill would be like something out of a horror movie.
If i remember correctly, at one point in the comics, Kitty was picked to be to be the public face and leader of the x-men team and one of the reasons was because her power Wouldn't scare people!
Yeah a lot of people sleep on kitty pride. She is scary af. Kinda like how people sleep on poison iv in DC. Poison ivy could make mold grown on someone's brain.
Whohoh!
Firestar, Iceman...
We only need Spidey, and we have my childhood fav cartoon on here.
Amazing friends was great I loved Peter having people he could depend on.
Not your childhood iceman.
Make sure you don't read any recent spider-man runs if you don't want your childhood to die because they are all bad, especially this current one. Literally the worst spider-man comic since One More Day.
@@connoc5078 dude, it already died, when the inheritors killed the spider friends off-panel.
This is ridiculous. Why does the mutants always lose especially their power set of Omega level mutants. I want the mutants to crush the anti-mutants.
Because of plot-induced stupidity and magic mcguffins like the sentinels existing, and the fact that marvel always picks the shittiest writers for these stories.
It's because this whole storyline got subverted so mutants fought mutants and other heroes instead of being focused on Orchis and Nimrod.
Kitty has always been one of the most deadly of the x-men if she chose. Combine that with the ninja training and she's well nigh unstoppable. There was that one fight I think back in the Clairmont days where she and Colossus nuked a sentinel by phasing a lamp post inside of it and let go.
Absolutely love your videos Rob. They keep me updated with the Xmen because there is just too much going on. I can't afford all the comics so this helps!
Wasn't iceman stated to have the potential to rival Ymir? If so I view it as him unlocking more of his potential. Emma Frost did say that Iceman lacked creativity to use his powers to the fullest.
Ironic as she hardly is creative as Psylocke or other telepaths
@@murk4552 She's creative because she doesn't need to use her powers to get the effects of her psionic manipulations can do.
CAP. Ymir is an Odin and Galactus level character. Ice Man cant even handle Archangel.
@@IStevenSeagal It ain't cap Iceman is just REALLY dumb
@@ExeErdna that literally makes no fucking sense, lmao. Explain that with coherence, please?
That was also bullshit, Iceman could have reached his potential without Frost highjacking his ice form.
Been LOVING your videos man. I used to love comics back in the 90's but they are just too expensive, and too hard to follow along so many titles. Watching your videos is like picking up the latest comics!
Perfectly said.....
Man your readings of these comics got me to buy marvel unlimited and I've been hooked. You always bring a huge amount of energy and excitement. Thank you for doing you!
heartbroken over jean’s death, also didn’t think jubilee and dazzler deserved to get got like that. i feel like marvel editorial is so unnecessarily cruel to the mutants
Dazzler will get better, that is kind of a running joke with her... Jubilee being dead was a thing a long time ago, maybe she'll get her vampire powers back...?
Its Jean Grey she has come back more times than Dracula!
@@davidwhitfield6025 Lol it’s true
Mutants get it almost as bad as Spider-Man these days.
@@GTX9999-9 SPECIALLY the summers family
That Kitty fight was metal, I’d love to see more of her phasing people into each other and random objects.
Why? Why would you love something that horrible?
I'm an Indigenous Australian. The whole "Humanity hates you and wants you dead" isn't a fictional comic book idea for us. It was government policy. "Social Darwinism" where black people were considered too unevolved to survive and the kindest thing to do is to take their kids and breed them into white society. My family history is so full of rape and violence and pain, because that's what colonisation brings.
The Krakoa age in X-men for me really spoke to something I didn't realise I was longing for. A safe place. No racists allowed. Your kids can look however and no one will pick on them for it. Government leaders can't hurt you because you've got the strength to defend yourself. No more fear, no more lateral violence because we're all united. Yeah it's a pipe dream... but it spoke to something that made the tension in my chest ease a little.
Having a storyline where all of that gets ripped down and mutants are massacred at a community gathering... it's pretty tone deaf. Hell, they even poisoned the mutants medicine. Just need Nimrod to stand handing out small pox blankets. What's the take away? Mutants (marginalised people) will never be safe? If you lift your head up too high and start to actually recover they'll stomp us back down again? Yeah cheers Marvel, we know. Thanks for that. We've always known. They elevate LGBTQI inclusivity into their comics and make that normal and hopeful but they just can't get it right for Indigenous people.
(p.s. I really hate that Storm hates Charles now as if he came and stole her away from her people. She could have gone home anytime she wanted to. That's a stupid story hook written by people who think the only way a black woman becomes powerful is by over coming the white men in her life. I appreciate that you're trying, Marvel, but sometimes you just make it worse I swear.)
Bro your content is just AWESOME
Keep going the killer work
Can’t wait to see more
I was waiting for this one. I'm just getting into American comics and trying to follow these storylines can get difficult. This was a brilliant entry point for me
"How do you kill a person that you can't touch?"
Just ask Minato Namikaze.
Omg. I couldn't have rolled my eyes far back enough when I saw how they brought back Iceman.
Thank you for a list of the comics covered in the video. Awesome work and Black Bolt is cool. lol
Said nobody ever except you, apparently.
"Ice-Man's Fortress of Solitude" or... "Ice-Man's Elsa Castle"
You choose.
Definitely the second, especially considering who owns Marvel now lol.
Thanks for explaining all of this. I can finally buy these comics without being completely confused!
Ow yeah love you shii best to fall asleep to but then find myself rewatching though the day im not good a reading dyslexic so you keep me in the loop thanks soooo much
We need the children of the vault to go after Orchis + Apocalypse and Genesis vs Nimrod. Bring in Uranos too!
Cyclops was never a villain. I don't know how this is still being said lol. The closest he ever got was maybe antihero during marvel now, but that's it.
I feel like Rob is just one of those anti-Cyclops wolverine stans.
@@Aureilius2112 idk. It never felt like he disliked cyke, but I'm just confused about his conclusion haha.
Dang. Going hard on the thumbnail today Rob.
Of course, but maybe:
Of course, of course an organization with Hydra, AIM and crazy humans is a problem.
But maybe…maybe you shouldn’t ignore them.
@@comics_explainedYou smoked some high grade before typing this?
I’ve been enjoying the videos… I will say in this one you may want to adjust your reverb or increase your gating, at 3:00 and other areas the louder you speak it has a high mid roomy echo that happens, a lot of your others have sounded good, simply sharing. Thanks for the vids and rock on!
Would LOVE if you did a East of West explained. It is such a intricate story that is amazing once you understand what is happening. I had to read through it twice before I could really get what was going on. I'm so glad I did though. One of the best comics of all time!
about 'how do you kill a person you can't touch', it's been covered. kp has been killed several times, although i don't remember the names of the storylines it happened in, as there are millions of them. i stopped reading comics a while back, so the last time she was killed that i'm able to quote was in 'marvel zombies'. a previous one that i still own was 'what if' nr. 27, 'what if phoenix had not died'. her phasing power doesn't mean much for a being of that level, as she can be forced to return solid and it's happened several times as well. as for being the most powerful being in the whole universe, that's just not possible, for more than the above reasons. kate's powers have a drawback, while she's phasing she can't breathe so she needs to complete her task quickly. kp engaging an opponent in a vacuum would be problematic, all the opponent would have to do is keep out of her reach and she'd either suffocate or would have to turn back.
Kitty Pride just turned into Obito basically
Its the other way around. She did phasing years before our simp-sharingian boi Tobi!
@@eW91dHViZSBpcyBjZW5zb3JzaGlw more like decades
Shes basically a weaker version of Mirio Lemillion from My Hero Acadamia. But with much less control and less good writing.
I appreciate your videos so much keep up the good work 🤜
I keep thinking of a badass panel of Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins descending from the sky for the GENESIS WAR
Bobby like: "I have my own ResurrXtion protocols!"
Im confused on how a bunch of humans werent eradicated right away by all the omega level mutants out there. Thats kinda insane
It’s a comic book.
It's called plot-induced stupidity and the writer not giving a shit about logical narrative. It's a staple of all mass death or old man logan-type stories.
Thank you for your coverage. It's a lifesaver for those of us who can't buy all titles!
Awesome Rob thanks
Isn't this the 4th or 5th time they've killed of the mutants
Yeah this is the fifth massacre by my count
Depends on if you count stuff that happens I alternate futures I guess, counting those well, uncountable number of times really.
I don't really like how they made M.O.D.O.K a kind of henchman, background character behind Mora and Dr. Stasis and Orcis, and them.
M.O.D.O.K isn't really an important character compared to Stasis, Moira, Nimrod or Orchis. He's actually an annoyance and doesn't need to be there.
Stasis is the clone of Sinister. Sinister was a henchmen of Apocalypse, and was responsible for weapon + (Captain America) and weapon × (Wolverine). And he was responsible for Nate Grey (my favourite character).
Moira can reincarnate with everything from her previous life, she's probably immortal since in PoX she is at the Ascension with Wolverine and the Phalanx. She's also basically the Creator of Krakoa as a mutant nation. In my opinion ever since she was introduced by Jonathan Hickman as what she is, she has become the most dangerous character in Marvel Comics.
Nimrod doesn't need me to acknowledge his importance, only a fool would think M.O.D.O.K is Nimrod's equal.
That’s what he’s always been? He’s never been the main guy lmao he’s mid and is used accordingly
only reason M.O.D.O.K is there is because he runs A.I.M
It’s going to be beautiful when the Krakoa arc finally ends. It was cool for a while, but so many of the characters have changed drastically. I want to see my old friends again. I’m sure Marvel’s ramping up to it since they’ll likely want the MCU to match and I doubt Krakoa will play any part in the X-Men’s debut.
This new run of x-men run does have my interest and I am very intrigue on where we are going with this story.
I laught my ass of when she smashed the dudes face in to the floor... She is what?? 120 pounds???

Imagine her just phasing her sword to cut people's heads off lol. I wonder how long she can make an object she touch remained phased after she let go. Imagine her having a handful of tiny time bombs she toss at people to explode inside them.
@@user-kr7gr8ue7w that’s phasing a bunch of mini bombs into a crown of enemies would be fire especially if they made it like a full page spread or something like that
BRO!!! You hear comic Brian Simpson shout you out on Joe Rogan's podcast??? I damn near flipped my chair over, I got so excited lol.
Ty for adding the comic in the descrip
Ice Man's revival made sense to me. I feel like that "spread thin" line implies that he was literally vaporized, and his consciousness scattered with the vapor, but Romeo was able to sense Bobby's love and use his empath powers to gather them back together. Vapor condenses back into water, then *boom* Ice Man.
Oh god dont go to interstellar levels of "love is the answer" to justify things....
The idea that dr. Statis came to a place where he knows there are telepaths with no protection (while the foot soldiers had psyiionic helmets) ruins this for me.
3:27 went by so fast I could have sworn it said rump lol
Jean mvp lowkey
Honestly not a fan of this arc. The story seems weak, and the overall idea of a mutant genocide has just been done to death (pun intended). You have so many other superpowered beings on the earth including potential unstable destroyers like Sentry, Hulk, etc...but you ignore all the radiation guys, you ignore the super serum guys, you ignore the space alien guys...and ONLY target the different people who have a genetic mutation?
When I see a new comicexplained video I say *click*
Comic time!
15:11
I adore that this gets it's own recognition lol
17:38 It mattered to people because of the fact that they'd just all of a sudden up and changed his sexuality from being straight to being gay without any backstory explaining that thoroughly beyond the fact that he was from the past displaced in time as a teen along with jean grey and she just reads his mind and suddenly uncovers that hes into guys when all throughout the comic book history of the character from the chris clairemont era he's always been shown as being into women who I believe had a crush on either rachel grey or jubilee I could be mistaken but that's a legitimate gripe mostly every fan of the character has with marvel and what they did to him!💯🔥😁😉👍
Plus it’s not like can use the excuse that there wasnt enough lgbt representation to change him since they have other lgbt characters in the comics, heck look what they did with Mystique, since when has she liked women that through me for a loop when I saw her and the precog woman, I can’t keep up with all the details and changes Marvel throws at the wall.
This came too soon after Sins of SInister imo. However this feels as though the write is demanding payback for all those years of having the X-Men as virtually immortal. They have to pay for all the lives they were given. Glad to see the Avengers are involved. I mean logically they would know this is all so much BS. Especially Carol Danvers who is annoyingly absent. She is closer to the X-Men than anyone else having lived with them after first meeting Rogue.
Rob! what with the Cyclops hate in the thumbnail!!! XD
can we expect a full story video at the end of all this?
also, could you go back and do some stuff on the 2018 amazing spiderman run at some point? you did one video but left it at that
The making Xavier, Colossus, Beast everyone bad just to cause suffering like they do Spiderman is getting old. Things can be complex but everything extremely dark is weak writing.
Kitty Pryde phased a giant-shaped bullet meant to destroy the Earth, saving everyone's life. She fought the Brood when she was a kid.
She's always been a badass, she didn't need to rip someone's heart out to become one.
Keep sticking with the Fall of X storyline please.
Really digging how much kitty pryde's "covert ops" uniform looks a lot like The Wink from marvel nemesis. (Bring back the imperfects but with good backstories and such!)
I’ll give kitty the whole phasing and killing people bit, but her snapping a neck, and throwing a guy. Kitty is like 120 pounds. Like would have been cooler if she just sauntered around putting things inside of people, or use some conventional karate to throw people based off their weight. Not lift a dude up by the collar and belt buckle.
also wouldn't the guy she threw be solid again the moment she let go? I didn't know things stayed intangible after she released them.
You both asking the right questions.
Mutants often have minor Superhuman physical abilities, if she is able to crush a man's head like a water melon while he is wearing a helmet I can buy her throwing a guy and snapping someone's neck in fact the former is way more scary than the latter.
why are the xmen written off so much
Its fun, thats why. Plus it opens up the possibility for new stories.
Bad writing.
For iceman abilities I would stress to look back because he's been improving his powers and there is info on what he''s done that can be googled so it's not lazy writing it's what I expected even since Bobby defeated Baston by creating copies of himself.
Can’t wait to see how this ends. Until then I’m going to finish up on Bitter Root. Iykyk. Can’t wait to you cover Bitter Root either.😃
Wait I thought Bobby was with Emma's younger brother?
Isn't that Christian Frost?
@@theonlychickensama8353yeah
@@theonlychickensama8353 yes
It's difficult to take Cyclops seriously anymore.
WTF?? He is still one of the most competent characters in Marvel. You smoking crack or meth?
Its like Iceman. They took two of the original and revered Xmen and made garbage out of their personal stories to the point that its a joke.
I died laughing when you got to the Kitty Pryde part 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just see Bobby's resurrection as his first death and him not truly understanding his powers. He doesn't know or understand how to reconstitute himself after total body destruction
All it takes is one being that can nullify mutant powers, which we've seen before, and Kitty Pryde is done for, so I wouldn't say she's one of the most powerful beings.
Also attacks on the mind. From Jean, Emma or Xavier. Not to mention Scarlet Witch
I said the same thing. I think it would be more than fair to say she was one of, if not the, deadliest hand to hand combatants in the Marvel Universe. Or has the potential to be, at least. But yeah, there are a good number of characters who could simply remove her from the board with a single thought.
Exactly. She is so easy to take out with all the powersets and tech in the world. Shes also not the only mutant that can phase through matter. Get a villain who creates a suit she cant use her powers on and poof, her effectiveness drops to zero.
@@bmagada Also, and this could have been retconned but I'm pretty sure phasing through adamantium causes her pain and phasing through the underground Breakworld minerals made her ill in Astonishing X-Men.
The iceman story isn't lazy writing. It's a way to show iceman's extreme level of power. They have shown his omega level power...this is just a way to add to that. Showing himself (and us) how powerful he really is/can be.
Whoa! The mutants are being "put up against the wall", as the Commies say.
Kitty is basically an Obito-level threat now. Im just waiting for her to gain her Rennigan and take over the ninja world😂
Could the mutants just get a W jesus im so tired of them getting massacred
they've been winning for quite a while now.
@@Luciusthestorms have they really is always them in danger I thought when krakoa launch they'd get a break but nope Moyra a villain the whole time
Finally, I've wanted certain mutants to get what was coming to them... For years.
They've "gotten what was coming to them", whatever the fuck that shit means, many times already.
Agreed!
Great video. I'm loving fall of x
Hello @Comics explained, can you do more versus vedio like Classic superman versus Merged Sentry.
