See, this reveal might have been remotely interesting and nightmarish if the story wasn't going at a millions miles an hour and killing off mutants left and right each issue.

This is beyond salting the earth; It's going Chernobyl on it. The only way forward is if this all turns out to be a fever dream ready for Hickman's run.

So there's no way this status quo will last long. Would this even work on Sentinels?

Legit question, are there actually fans of this run?

>"I just don't know whether I should say I'm sorry or you're welcome"
YOU SHOULD MAYBE WRITE AN APOLOGY LETTER TO THE FANS FOR KILLING OFF CHARACTERS LEFT AND RIGHT AND FOR WRITING A RUN THAT'S WORSE THAN CHUCK AUSTEN'S

That's been the issue with Roseman's entire run. There's definitely some good ideas in here, but it feels like the major plot points should be coming like once every three issues rather than three-per-issue. There's been no time for decompression and character development. No peaks and valleys to the tension. It's all just go-go-go-go every single moment. You can tell he had this BIG story he wanted to tell and was basically given a fifth of the time it would take to logically tell it before Hickman was to take over, so he's just jamming it all into as few issues as possible here.

I would have liked to have seen the version of this story that had the number of issues that it would have taken to have told it well. There's potential in this run that this format prevents it from reaching.

kind of been enjoying the current run for reveals and moments like this

thats always been a major problem wirh the xmen though since its always been an ever expanding ensamble. the most well written stories leave gaps are designed and left to the imagination or answered later on. They’re either trivial, leave a point of mystery or are well understood.

This is fucking stupid.
Even Bendis’s run was better than this.

I like it. If only for the "Rosenberg knows he's getting shitcanned so he's going full ham for shits and giggles" of it.

Nope. He’s going at exactly the pace he wanted to. He was hired after Hickman and already knew the amount of issues he was gonna get after Disassembled. This is all on him. This is forever.

Emma with sidecut
REEEEEEEEE

>lose mutant side
>pull out of magic version of your old mutant powers
That feels lazy as shit. Since when does her mutant bullshit keep her demon shit in check? Wasn't not using the dark magic belesco taught her the reason?

>Ditch Elixir with Demon Illyana

This better not be some offscreen death bs the character is legitimately unkillable.

Magik should have been goo'd to death.

Took long enough. I'm disappointed that it was generic government enemies and not actually a negative consequence of Hope's actions.

I never understood this idea, "Oh everyone will forget about mutants"

yeah but what about all the recordings, written proof, and giant sentinels that were made with 1 specific purpose!?

It'd make sense if they did a huge ass intelligence destroying mission, and erased all traces they could of mutant existance but, nah, just "mindwipe" should be good.

This can't last.

And there is no way it'll last because we know that Hickman's run will have humans trying to kill all mutants again.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

This is how they will introduce Mutants in the MCU. I guarantee it. "They were always there, non-mutants were just forced to forget."

She wouldn't be as "scary" if she was still still fapbait.
On that note can someone explain to me what forgetting mutants is going to do for all those non human looking mutants? Wouldn't they hate just creep back? It works here because Alex looks like a human.

Attached: why is adult illyana's boobs kinda small by cape standards when she had boobs at like 12 under (1012x1600, 430K)

Likely just ends up with humans going back either into the underground or (if) Genosia becomes akin to another lost world again.
IDK
There's way people could work around the massive sinkhole sized plot-hole and kind of make it work as a temporary setback. Emma Frost certainly didn't expect it to be a permanent solution to her problems.

Considering he knew he was going in with limited time and nothing he wrote really mattered why couldn't Rosenberg have just done a weird and interesting story. Shit like Goblin Queen Pryor invading Limbo or one of the X-Men's cosmic enemies using Nate's shenanigans as a chance to take revenge on the X-Men.

God danmit we just got him back....

Jesus Christ this run is terrible.

How about computer records, books, films and everything else? That will surely keep the memories.

Attached: XMANKILLING.jpg (700x974, 135K)

I hate this image, because it's true

my prediction is Elixir resurrects every XMan Rosenberg killed in the next and last issue, but it harms him, killing him, or turning him into Evil Shadow Elixir that kills everything that he touches and has black skin, consequence of using his powers too much

In what fucking way were Illyana's mutant powers holding back the demon form?

Ahahahahahah didn't he came back not long ago?

>Emma with a sidecut
So Marvel finally found a way to ruin her
At least I'll always have New X-Men

this is a reference to Age of Apocalypse Emma, who had a permanent scar, and had no powers, because they performed surgery on her to remove the telepathic part of her brain

This feels shortsighted. What does this mean for mutants who are in groups outside the X-books like Broo and Dr. Nemesis?

She could have used Cyttorak power too... anyway, Cain survived.

Attached: Punisher Kill Krew.jpg (738x1121, 197K)

goblin queen pryor got her ass kicked already by teen xmen

Invulnerable to physical attacks, not mystical attacks.

Waited so long to get the classic logo back as well as Logan and Scott and it only lasted ten issues and fucking sucked with shit art. I still bought every issue like a typical X-fag tho.

There’s no way it’s worse than chuck Austen, this is ruining characters in the present, he managed to do that in past and present, also the art on Austen’s was shit as well.

Do you think Rosenbum gets a hitlist of characters that have to die from editorial so he can go Ultimatum on them?

I like seeing the shit go down and ppl seethe cause I haven’t been an Xfag in over a decade, but I don’t like it knowing there could be a better book out instead and having seen what it could be.

At least now since Magik is no longer a filthy mutie she can be full mystic

This transition is good in theory but bad in execution.

Yeah just like Dani, oh wait.

>lets job juggernaut again because... who cares?
Fuck off.

Didn't she do brain surgery on other kids though to give them telepathic powers?

it LITERALLY tells you in the last panel that people can no longer perceive mutants as mutants. you didn't even bother to read the comic in A STORYTIME THREAD.
This is the state of Yea Forums now.

Actually nvm, I just remembered I've been thinking of Ruins. Yeah caught the reference though, kind of nonsensical though because this Frost clearly still has powers with or without cerebro?

What? can she suddenly rewrite reality? because unless she can there are definitely endless records of mutant activity EVERYWHERE in the world.

Why can't they put competent writers on x men again?

Nothing personel, kid.

Marvel drove them all away.

>So there's no way this status quo will last long
There's literally only one issue left of Rosenberg's run before it all gets jettisoned into non-canonville once Big Dick Hickman comes in to go full on scorched earth/tabula rasa on the X-franchise.

lmao this book has zero fucking pacing, what is this shit

But there will be nothing left for Hickman to burn if this keeps up

>It's going Chernobyl on it
What does that even mean? Plant life grows fine in Chernobyl

Where did her tits go?

Really fun.

Magik never had books, they were always pecks that she propped up

I like the ride this run is giving me, sadly you know Hickman and Ewing are going to steamroll through and being everyone back

Based Rosenberg.

This is meta as fuck.

Is the fag in white Dr. Nemesis?

Limbo

This is a "fun" series... u_u u_u

> Fabian Cortez in back.

Didn't he die like freaking years ago? Early 00s? How the hell is he alive-- no wait Sinister. Sinister cloned him. Sinister will clone everyone who died.

I love it when hack writers kill off my favorite characters for shock value, don't you?

Hell lord beats hell lord servant

Sunspot is dead?! Wasn’t he the director of AIM Island?

feet ;)

Some more will die next issue.

Got blown up in the war of the realms tie in

This got me wondering. Is Elixir somehow connected to 2099's Xi'an? His right hand heals everything and is gold like Elixier's but his left hand destroys everything it touches.

Attached: xian08.jpg (400x283, 53K)

but isnt Marow supposed to have healing factor

>Sunspot

Well that proves he probably wants to get back at Hickman. What a petty dick.

The Marauders are a non-issue. SInister can just clone them again.

Hickman better save my boy Jono.
Also Rahne because her death was fucking bullshit.

Elixir can't resurrect someone, and his power to heal requires him to have the biological knowledge

Update this with Banshee, Velocidad and that black healer from Bendis run... also Elixir I guess, he will die soon.

Here

>Killing Loa

Fucking why?

Anybody died in age of Xman?

No you see usually an artist who is talented but too slow to work on an ongoing works on a cover to trick people into thinking it will look good, Marvel is doing some galaxy brain marketing by lowering our standards before we see Larroca's interior art

Shouldn't Cytorakk be on a higher level than Magik?

OH so that's who the black guy was. I wonder what the waifu mutant from Bendis run is doing right now

Yes, doesn't mean she can't destroy the crystal. Then if you went to limbo he would be weaker then her

> Dark Beast
> Banshee

When I stopped keeping up with X books they were both already dead...well guess it's time for Death Becomes Them

youtube.com/watch?v=bL6J7FJmy1c

DAMN! ILLYANA LOOKS LIKE ***THAT**?!

Wow, everything about this is stupid as hell.

Why would he want to do that?

Omega Red, Moneta, and Genesis. OR and Evan are expected to come back by the Omega issue, though.

He resurrected a bunch of dead doctors during Bunncanny

Siena Blaze and Trevor Fitzroy too

>Chamber

God

Fuxking

Danmit!

They didn´t die, the X-Men just punch them.

what was the editorial edict of this book? Was Rosenberg even given a mission? Did the Shogun give him the book knowing he's the worst writer Marvel has so he'll fail and when Hickman takes over Johnathan will instantly be hailed as a savior.

Check:
“They killed my associates back there!”

So I remenber something in a previous thread about the goverment suicide squad knockoff thing implanting a bomb in her head. Is this scar from it being put in or taken out and how long will it take for her hair to grow back?

Yeah, that a weird line.
Thing is, nothing in UXM 20 says that they are dead. They are defeated by the X-Men, Shinobi kill himself, end.
And now Cortez is here.

Jono deserved so much better. Awesome character who ended up in consistently shitty books and situations following Gen X before being used as death fodder by another hack writer.

Yes, they die in this issue. Presumably killed by the ONE soldiers that are chasing them down.

>“They killed my associates back there!”
Aw man, if there is one death I actually wanted to see it was for Emma Frost to murder the fuck out of Trevor Fitzroy to avenge the Hellions. But he got killed off-screen instead, lame.

Daily reminder that Fitzroy, who was resurrected by Rosenberg, was a hero in the future, became evil because he was killed and Layla Miller was forced to resurrect him without his soul to save mutantkind, which led to his moral corruption over time, and that he fucked Ruby Summers (his girlfriend)

Trevor fucks her daughter with Scott in the future

All the more reason to kill him.

Rip gone forever.

If he makes it through one more issue, it means Rosenberg has killed over 25 characters as a trade-off for bringing back Fabian Cortez.

Didn't Sugarman die?

Yep. In Bishop’s backup in issue one. I think the only AoA holdover is Blink. She’s black so Rosenberg is gunning for her.

Hickman said he wasn't using Cannonball or Sunspot a while back though.

>he wasn't using Cannonball
Wierd since he's using Paige. Have Paige and Sam ever been on a team together?

Outside of alternate realities like Age of Apocalypse? I don't think so

The only thing he said was that he wasn’t “bringing them home” in reference to a question that was asking him if he would bring Sam and Bobby back home to the X-Books. He only said no, because both are already under the X-Offices again.

Omega
Class
Telepath

She only has that haircut because they performed brain surgery on her to remove a bomb, that is why she has that scar

And she used Cerebro to do it. That is nothing weird. Telepaths + Cerebro always had the power to do that, they just never did because Charles isn't as immoral as Emma.
In Morrison's run remember how they tried to stop Cassandra Nova from reaching Cerebro.

She somehow jumped from mid-tier to top-tier in the 2000s just because she became popular and important, but she's got the Cerebro helmet, and Cortez's power is to boost the powers of other mutants, that's why she needed him.

yes, but Cortez is like those drugs sportmen take that improve their performance. He makes you more powerful, but can ruin your health.
IIRC, his "offensive" power to attack other mutants was overloading their powers making them lose control.

Where the fuck are they getting these roblox tier models they're tracing from, like the polycount on these must be low as all fuck, look at all these massive unbeveled edges. Holy fuck the tracing wouldn't trigger me so much if it wasnt just so fucking bad

If Rosenberg remembers this, next issue Emma should have to deal with her powers being amped up beyond her ability to control them, or a debilitating comedown when his power wears off. She may have considered it worth the risk to make her plan work.
