Comics Can we shake up the X-Men rosters a bit please!

So what happens if Hope does end up being what Bishop is afraid she'll be? Everybody will be wishing they'd listened to him in the end. Idk if any of the X-Men could bring themselves to kill a little girl; no matter how evil she might/will be, but they'll have to admit Bishop was right.
 
The fact of the matter is Bishop tried to killed a little baby like it was Apocalypse. He's officially gone far past the hero stage at this part.

See, I give Bishop some credit for having the stones to do what he thinks needs to be done(whether you think he's crazy or not). He doesn't enjoy killing children and if he were to be successful in killing Hope, I'm sure it'd F him up psychologically. He only has the survival of the mutant species at heart while chasing her down. He's not a villain. He hasn't once smiled or laughed maniacally when thinking about the situation.

Hmm, was that Bishop mini supposed to explain that for him? Well, if it was, Marvel certainly didn't care for people to read it considering that they let Stroman draw it.

Haha
 
The point of the matter is. Killing a little girl is a bit radical. All he had to do was say ''Look Scott, if we don't do something at this point, this will lead to this point, and then we'll all be dead."

More than likely it's something that being brought up in the right environment could change. Hell, her time with Cable as her father has already probably changed Hope for the better.
 
The X-Men are entirely too naive to act on anything Bishop would/could have said to them. Wolverine and maybe Archangel(when he goes all crazy) are the only people who'd consider killing a little girl even if they knew she'd grow up to be somebody horrible. I think it was in the Ultimate universe, when Wolverine got sent to kill a small boy who's mutant power was just to kill people near him. Logan felt horrible afterward but it needed to be done. The kid couldn't turn his power off and we all know how writers ignore power inhibitors :whatever:

Personally, I don't think Hope is a destroyer nor messiah. I think she just happened to be the first mutant birth since M-Day and if left alone, she'd live a normal mutant life.
 
If Hope does turn out to be this horrible murderer, then I say let X-23 kill her. Wolverine's a killer, sure, but he likes kids way too much, and killing that girl would probably destroy him. X-23, on the other hand, would probably see it as an assignment and go through with it with a lot less hesitation or psychological scarring.
 
That's just the thing. Is there any way Hope still the same person she was destined to be according to Bishop? I mean surely as I said before her time with Cable has changed her for the better.

He'd be sad for a while but I think Logan would get over it relatively quickly.

Things Hope could become:

Mutant destroyer
Mutant savior
Manager of a McDonalds
Actress
Nun

etc...

Then there will be some people complain about how the adults let X-23 doing the killing and throw back all the progress she has made in rejoinging the society.

I would think it would be more likely that Cable would end up being the one to kill her if Hope turns out to be a destroyer.

And I sympathize with Bishop's situation, after all, he's the one in the X-Men actually knows what kind of a ****hole his future is, and he's very afraid, it messes up his head, and he sure as hell doesn't enjoy his action. He just does what he thinks it's the solution for the horrible future he lived in, and seeing how he and Cable are one of a kind, he is doing what Cable would have done if he were Bishop.

~:huh:

I doubt there would be an all female team but if Firestar's back in play I want her on Scott's team! Has anyone heard a rumor about Angelica? Be great to see if they establish her as knowing Iceman since they hung out with Spidey at one point...

I like what u did with Havok and polaris having them on 2 different teams. Maybe that means they are still togther romantically just on different teams out of necessity. Scott can do it if he needs to since he's running for ahole of the year..great opportunity for character development.
 
Haha, "Limbo" is not a team. It's where I wanna send those characters b/c I don't care about them :p
 
Why mention Firestar at all? When was the last time anyone saw her?

She's in Marvel Divas right now. She just found she has cancer.


PS: I thought Hope bonded with X-23 and Elixir during Messiah War? Wouldn't that make X-23 a little hesitant to kill her if it had to come down to it?

Aren't mutants immune to cancer? Or am I thinking of AIDS? What was the debilitating disease some writer in the 90s claimed mutants can't get?

You talk to me as if I'd actually dare read Messiah War. I dropped Cable once that crossover started. That said, if Laura and Hope bonded, maybe Blue Warren is the best person to take Hope out.
 
Yeah I think blue Warren would take her out no problem.. I think hes really losing the plot. As entertaining as it is watchin him wipeing out everyone (that last issue of X-Force was a good example) I think he probably needs a good shrink about now.

As for Hope, id get X-23 to take her out. She'd do it mercilessly and without hesitation. Shes killed completely innocent infants and children before just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Killing is NOTHING to her. Shes a weapon just trying (elbeit not very hard) to be human. She's the best there is at what Wolverine does.

Except with Hope, she might finally have someone she'd hesitate to kill.
 
I think Hope has made Cable a better character. I love the direction he took after M-day, and they're both likely to play big role in the X-men's future, so I think it's cool and interesting.
