I really wish they'd have Hope's powers friggin' manifest already! Right now it just looks like she's got some mid pre-cog powers or something. She's 17 now! Isn't the X gene supposed to kick in at puberty?! C'mon!
Hope's powers are that she can whine, comb her hair, and jump on beds, which is remarkable considering she's a football, not a person.

Think about it. All she's ever done is be rushed or passed back and forth and intersepted.

Don't forget she gets huddled around while the group exchanges play-by-plays, prayers, and grumbling looks to the Quarterback/linebackers.

Anyone else notice Kurt totally left Rogue there alone with half-dead Bastion? Don't get me wrong, priorities. He had an arm through his chest, and Hope needed to GTFO, but... LOL

Appropriate that she was there though.

More about Hope- it ticks me off that Nightcrawler has more backing up his faith in God than Cyclops does backing up his belief that Hope will save mutantkind from extinction. Yet who goes sending people to their deaths? I mean, I'd get it if it were just a mission to save a girl, but when every mutant life supposedly matters, you don't go sending mutants to their deaths on some sanguine and completely unsubstantiated hunch that this girl is some messiah.

For all we know, Cable, Bishop, and Bastion are wrong, and Hope is nothing more than a little girl who should have never been taken out of Cooperstown, and whose family has probably given her up for lost.

I'm having a harder time with this than I thought I would.

I'm trying to compose a letter to Marvel or a post to Joe Q and so far all I've been able to come up with has a lot of "You, stupid Jerks!" in it, ending with something like "....and I hate your stupid Ironman movie!"

Suffice to say I will not be composing a letter today.....nor probably tomorrow for that matter. I'll try again on Saturday and keep it over the weekend just to be safe. I will NOT dishonor Nightcrawler by being a stupid jerk myself.

Today I'm wearing a dark blue wristband (couldn't find one long enough to make an armband). It doesn't make me feel any better, but I'm going to wear it anyway. I'm going to paint his name on it or something and I'm making myself believe that I'm either going to wear it on my wrist or thru a belt loop until they bring him back. (It'll probably end up on my keychain so I don't know if that counts as a tribute/protest.)


I want him back!

I'm wearing all blue today, and not just because my current job calls for scrubs. Did they ever hear of "Golden Hour" and "Platinum 10 Minutes" and consider that a mutant healer and an expert surgeon were mere seconds away? What the heck were they doing standing around whining and not even bothering to check an airway? You'd think no one ever survived severe chest trauma before. Colossus getting impaled and surviving, Nightcrawler getting shot through and through and surviving, Christine Palmer getting SNIKT-ed through the ribs and surviving, naw none of those ever happened.

Hello another lame-o, plausibly preventable, unecessary shock value/plot device death.

Yeah but, he literally teleported into Bastions arm. It's not like he just got stabbed with it, I think that they are fused together. I don't know how they would remove the arm without removing vital organs as well. And even if they were able to do even that I don't think they'd be able to do it in time to fix him. :(

Fortunately, Warren's blood heals, and so does Elixir. In fact... besides killing people, that's ALL Elixir does.

Warren's blood doesn't heal Kurt, it burns him, according to the "Arc That Shall Not Be Mentioned".

I hear Elixer burned himself out killing Wither, and is now useless as a healer.

Is Sister Salvation still around?

But neling dear, we're in MOURNING. It's, like, appropriate. And I love the choice of pics for the top banner. I mean, yeah, it'll be great to go back to good ol' blue after a while, but for now, get in touch with your Inner Goth. (Easy for me to say; I have about 8 mostly-black dresses and at least 4 black jackets/sweaters. But I used to sing at funerals a lot.)

Oh, yeah, and isn't there a certain girl right there on the island with the power to make things intangible and enabling them to pass harmlessly through a body? Couldn't she come out of that bottle for the few seconds to do that?

Of course, we could have Mystique (or Christine, or Piotr, or ... take your pick) see Kurt come out of the shower and realize the whole M-Day fiasco and sequelae were nothing but a dream. Yeah, I keep coming back to that. My tawdry past follows me everywhere. :LOL

[Edited on 29/4/10 by Elfdame] (Ok, first I got my typing wrong, then I see the "all about Scott" post. I hope they don't fine people who over-edit.)
Scott's agony calls to mind Wyatt's line from "Tombstone": "Run, you cur, run. You tell all the other curs the Law's comin'. You tell 'em I'M comin'. And Hell's comin' with me, you hear? Hell's comin' with me!!!" I mean, if we're gonna have Logan saturation and Scott-centricity, at least let 'em use some great lines. Tho from what I hear, the whole evil issue was well written.

I'm so disgusted. Unless he's screaming, "The world didn't shaft me this time. IT's ALL MY FAULT!!!" before he leaves the X-Men.

I always liked Scott better when he wasn't big boss man in charge.
