If I wrote the X-Men I'd make a point of killing characters--like, actually killing them--and then bringing them back to life in the very next issue. Death is already a joke in this franchise, might as well crank things up to 11.
Is that the evil Beast from the Age of Apocalypse timeline?
S
Not included in OP's pic: The Nasty Boys and Shinobi Shaw.
Emma is also a huge retard who didn't anticipate the mutant-hating general she's been forced to work with double-crossing her.
Meh. They'll just retcon it once people stops giving a shit with what Hickman is doing.
isnt beast a race traitor
why stop there? you can literally kill them off then resurrect them in the same issue. or even multiple death and resurrections in the same issue.
that's Dark Beast
wait, what?
i been out of the loop for a while, what is happening?
LMAO I can imagine your deep confusion over this, and it's hilarious. X-Men, not even once.
Is Jean dead again?
i think it is. the colors are about the same.
IS THIS A STONETOSS REFERENCE!?!?!?!
No, just other X-Men characters since the writer needs repeated shock value.
This should be the first post in every X Men thread.
Im more surprised he was even still alive in the first place.
Wait, NOW you decide to kill him off? If no one else decided to off him after all he's done, you might as well leave him be.
Ewing? Is that you?
>Ewing? Is that you?
Not him, but this is definitely what I'd do if I was in charge of the X-Men.
He was killed off by Bendis, inexplicably showed up alive in Secret Warriors and then explained as being brought back as a cyborg by Sinister in this Uncanny run, hence the stupid robot spider legs. Give it a few years, he’ll be fine especially since he’s apparently friends with Sinister
They literally bring back someone just to kill him? The fuck?
>If I wrote the X-Men I'd make a point of killing characters--like, actually killing them--and then bringing them back to life in the very next issue.
So Rick Remender.
Like, he had Zemo slit a guy's throat and he was alive the next issue! He had Falcon's blood drained and get replaced with plant vines and HE came back to normal! Like, JESUS, Remender was the KING of that!
what are some good modern comics with magik in them?
X-men died a long time ago. People need to stop fucking it's corpse already.
>good modern comics
You are 10 years too late for that lad.
Why was Dark Beast allowed to live for any amount of time near the X-men? The last time I remember seeing him, he was attacking the school with nuclear armed helicarriers. He's basically mutant Norman Osborn. He should be kill on sight.
Because of muh cure subplot
Overlord Akira: We will not do shock value deaths anymore.
Rosenburg: Hold my beer.
This... since for some reason 616 Beast created the cure.
They needed someone who could science since all the genius X-Men got caught in Age of X-Man. He did help a bit before totally fucking them over though.
I liked What If? Magik from last year
where's the other nazi, Doctor Nemesis?
How bad can art even get? JFC this is a joke
I though Dark Beast died in Bendis' run. Maybe that was Sugar Man? whatever. fuck Bendis.
All Hope Lies in Hickman
They just brought him in to fix Dark Beast's shit cure.
The weirdest thing about it is that his sabotaging of the cure was apparently completely reversible, and Doctor Nemesis confirms that he'll be able to save the kids in literally the next page. Dark Beast decided to sabotage the cure knowing he'd be caught almost immediately for seemingly no other reason than to be a dick.
Magik really needs to do more magic stuff.
He just appeared in this issue.
Kavita Rao and Prodigy were just in Wolfsbane's funeral issue
>mutant Norman Osborn
no Dark Beast was literally mutant Josef Mengele and the 616 was his Argentina
it's mindblowing that he lived until 2019
I mean, this is Dark Beast from Age of Apoc; I’m genuinely happy about this death.
Age of Apocalypse was a story where Legion tries to go back in time and kill Magneto, but kills Xavier instead, leading to a world where Apocalypse had taken over and people were a lot different. For example, Beast conducted experiments on mutants for Mr. Sinister, one of Apocalypse's horsemen. When the X-Men use the M'Kraan Crystal to fix things, Beast sneaks in and teleports to the 616 reality, but in the past. From there on he's known as Dark Beast, and continues his unethical experimentation on mutants and others, and just generally being an evil bastard.
X-Men.
All of this shark's friends were nabbed by the secret police run by Angel and X-man. Now she sits at the lunch table alone. Say something to cheer her up!
Go hang out with Eyeboy in Apocalypse's sex cult
Shame it's not actual Beast
...We're screwed.
See what gets me is, if that wasn't enough, the first thing Dark Beast did when he got into the 616 reality was impersonate regular Beast and systematically murder Beast's friends, family and everyone who ever knew or cared about him from his childhood on with flesheating bacteria to prevent them from fingering him as an imposter. Then he went on to kill Beast afterwards (failed obviously)
Now Dark Beast is some guy who regular Beast consults whenever Hank encounters problems he can't solve.
so basically the X-Men rebooting is a very very good idea
I really think that the order to kill all those characters came from Hickman, he will just not use them but if they are dead fans will not bother him every day.
Just imagine you're Hickman and a retard asks you every day to include Chamber in your comic.
>Just imagine you're Hickman and a retard asks you every day to include Chamber in your comic.
They still will, because "comic deaths don't stick" and all that, and since the X-Men went particularly stupid about it in the last few years, it's on them.
Does anyone at Marvel even remember he was a Nazi?
>All Hope Lies in Hickman
So there is no hope then
That's just business as usual for mutants. Magneto joined the X-Men and Toad became the fucking janitor for the school
oh, an AU Beast. No loss. Probably more of a plus.
Based El Beast Negro
They all think she's dead, along with all the other mutants that are in Age of X-Man.
I'm sad for her and Glob. I hope they have a future on Hickman's X-Men.
When did Dark Beast get the Darth Maul treatment?
Did they just paste autopsy photos into the background of an X-Men comic?
Yes.
>this is canon in nu-wars
>Marvel caring.
Really? You had to ask.
Rosenberg's claimed that Hickman has given him no directives, so if we believe him, all of this bullshit is squarely on Rosenberg
look on the bright side at least it would mean this is canon to some extent youtu.be
>I really think that the order to kill all those characters came from Hickman
It doesn't work like that, a mandate would come from editorial and usually if it's not event mania connected they don't prepare as much in advance. Hickman's run will be very much out with the old and in with the new rather than cross over material.
