Hickman was not really meant to stay that long; he was meant to revitalize the interest in the X-men. And he did so successfully. But when you let the comics editorial be overridden by the MCU bigwigs (even if they are comic fans/enthusiasts), this is what happens. This has happened before. With Claremont. With Byrne. With Busiek. Even with Morrison. The SIDE that makes the most money dictates the evolution of the other side. But yes, I agree, it is a disappointment. But not as much as Spider-man: One More Day.

Because I have zero faith that Mickey Rat will ever show even a *tenth* of the respect Beau DeMayo did the characters and setting for _X-Men 97._ None. Their whole track record is that the MCU promotes ONE guy per film, literally, with ensembles being reduced to CGI set pieces and Quips-a-Million. A TEAM franchise is alien as fuck to the House of Mouse. They can't even do a team of Disney Princesses. They literally fired DeMayo before his cartoon aired. I'm sorry, I'll shut up now. Because yeah, nobody's really here to go off or see others do that.

@@bradleypoe6846 I think it is a bit more complicated then that. Disney managed to turn Marvel from a failing studio into a actual powerhouse with the MCU. I think the issue was that after they let the Russo Brothers cook and concluded with Endgame. A bunch of contracts expired, the Russo brothers left, Stan Lee died. And so all the brain/acting power houses buggered off leaving Disney to try and recreate something just as good with none of the resources that allowed the MCU to get that big to begin with. I suspect that a combination of BlackRock toomfoolery, braindrain, and people retiring have lead to Marvel just turning out dogwater after dogwater series since then. It's not going to get any better until it all goes under like in the early 1990's and Disney drops them.

I also hated the fact they turned Beast (one of the most beloved Xmen into a villain)! They ended up reconning that also, but why do it?

In a similar way that the Avengers are both earths warriors but mostly america .

Man... I really loved that speech from Kafka, because it addresses the fundamental flaw behind Apocalypse's philosophy: "Social Darwinism" completely misunderstands the evolutionary concept of "survival of the fittest". As Kafka explains, it's not about being physically fit - it's about being fit for your environment. What makes you the top dog in one environment may leave you to struggle in another or if your environment changes over time, and changing a single variable can turn that entire ecosystem around you on its head. That moment could have been a great character moment for Apocalypse. Not as an immediate turnaround, but after some time. At first he'd probably still scoff at it and leave the youngsters to their "delusion" and run off to do his own thing - but when he attempts his next crusade and the X-Men effortlessly manage to avoid any collateral damage (despite him still very much wrecking them), he may start to consider that line of thinking... Sadly with how decisively he shut it down here, that doesn't seem likely.
@rabumalal

I take side with apocalypse here. Kafka's point is that if everyone is altruist like i am, then as a "we" we change the context so that context fit us so that powerful work can be done by a group of people, but it can only happen when everyone helps you with context. What happens when you cannot change context? when you live in earth instead of the white hot room and other people contexts clashes with you? Apocalypse answer that he would beat other contexts out of his own might, his survival is not to be snuffed but to thrive by your own by your own might, basically if every mutant learns to really fend for themselves and develop their knowledge , they can grow the context out of their own might. So he beat but didn't kill exodus, adjusted and didn't kill kafka, he took the time to pain everyone in a different way, because they have yet work to do. When you can not only survive but thrive in any environment(including mental), which would include defending yourself, you become Apocalypse ubermensch, which is basically become a better you ion every aspect, and your work is not done yet, so painful encouragement

@@rabumalal "Changing context" doesn't just mean some magic reality warping. It's the main survival strategy of humanity. We altered our environments across the entire planet to the point where natural selection doesn't even apply to us anymore. We have entirely replaced the original context with our own and continue to change it - both physically (moving entire mountains, connecting oceans, etc.) and socially (healthcare, global communication & trade, etc.). Kafka's point is not "everyone should be a goody-two-shoes with no care in the world", but that in the world as it exists today, the raw domineering power Apocalypse worships isn't the most useful trait. A functional and resilient society has a much wider reach, and through cooperation can easily accomplish feats that would be hard even for an exceptional individual - so working as part of it rather than against it is the much more beneficial trait to have. Apocalypse's approach is "everyone for themselves" - which is easy to say if you're functionally immortal, have vast knowledge of advanced Celestial technologies and the abilities to magic those into existence. But everyone else is stronger if they can contribute to and benefit from the shared strength of a society, instead of living alone in the woods, struggling to survive all by themselves. That even goes for super-powered individuals. And yeah, making sure that society doesn't get complacent, corrupt and weak is a valid concern. Kafka said as much when he assured Apocalypse that his ideals are still a strong foundation to be inspired by. But there are far more efficient ways to ensure that than to occasionally beat up individuals. If anything that's more in like with the traits that can corrupt and weaken a society... The environment has changed, but Apocalypse refuses to adapt to the new conditions, which - ironically - is a pretty poor survival strategy. And it frankly shows in how much the X-Men treat it as a temper tantrum. His ideology is going extinct.

Idk, Rob... I was also born in '84, and I sometimes think parents nowadays need to be a little more like ours were back in the day. A little more like Apocalypse. A little pain can be a very persuasive and memorable lesson in the proper context. Though, I will readily admit that it can easily be taken too far and get out of control. But, yeah...

I was so excited for Krakoa when it first started. no more of the usual genocide and trauma that's been the cycle for the xmen- Who are a metaphor for the marginalized, that's a fact. It shows amazing things happen when a community pulls itself together! And then writers started drilling holes in the boat as soon as it got going, and now it's over. And the solution for an oppressed community is to move to another dimension? WTF!

That sucks that the MCU drives this, I loved the Krakoan era, it had such promise. Mostly a really great story while Hickman was rocking it.

After reading the full run with all the tie ins and one offs( my god the bloat) this really is the only ending. Its been hinted at since House and Rise, Rise of X, and kept getting hinted at on and off since Hickman started the whole thing off.

The irony of Magneto becoming the enlightened one who stands for what is truly good, and Xavier being show up as the manipulative sociopath he is? I kinda love it.

Does "show up" work when he deliberately made the choice to stop trying to be the good man everyone kept criticising him for prioritising and instead betray what believed in to support what his people wanted. And then chooses to go to jail for it. Magneto's choice is true but he'll have to work to stand by it. We'll also have to deal with what's left of the people he threw in the pit, and whether he confesses to having framed Toad for murder.

Never was it shown or stated that dominion sinister was more powerful than TOA. Heck previous stories greatly hinted that the Phoenix force was a big threat to dominions.

Im so mad. The Krakoan age was the coolest thing to happen to mutants in a long time. It was so pretty with the Hellfire gala and everything and now its dead because of MCU needs. The mutants had peace and it was taken away.

Also, Logan just being super excited to kill Charles in the beginning was jarring. What Charles did was beyond messed up, but it feels like Logan shouldve felt a little more conflicted about what he was about to do. Maybe. Iunno.

Enigma was a Dominion, they fear two things: Galactus and the Phoenix Force. He was always going to lose to the Phoenix which is why he was trying to get rid of it via Jean Grey using Mother Righteous

The sad part is Apocalypse is kind of right. Humanity just tried to throw an extinction event for mutants and only turned at the last minute when they were in danger. Now they want to be philosophical about it and they were already doing that on Krakoa. They need to be more vigilant and ready to fight. Just dont be the ones to throw the first punch. I would be pissed too if my people went through what Orcus tried and what they told me is, were going to be nice to the people who pointed death robots at us.

I am excited for the relaunch now that Magneto and Xavier’s roles have been reversed. It is unfortunate that Apocalypse fell back to his old ways but I like the idea of him being this old outlaw type lashing out at a world that does not want him anymore. There are some directions that excite me about the X-Men universe now that the first Krakoan era is over but having said that I wish Hickman and his team got to realize their vision fully. The good thing is that Hickman’s getting to do his thing with Ultimate Spider-Man and it’s absolutely amazing.

I completely missed out on the Krakoan age. I read House and Powers of X and part of the X-men run during AXE. Is it worth reading all the stories that lead up to this point. Meaning: X-Men, Fallen Angels, New Mutants, X-Force, etc.? I've heard that I'ld need to read almost everything to understand it. Is that true or are there stories that stand on their own?
