Seems odd that we just saw Beast alive and well, and mentioning Charles Xavier, less than year ago in The Marvels.
But now we’re following the story of a Logan who got drunk while humans murdered his X-Men, who’s now living in a universe where the Logan died after his X-Men were murdered by Xavier.
Maybeee Beast is living in the post-DOFP universe, and maybee that’s different from the Logan/Deadpool universe? But if that’s the case, then that all now just sounds wild and needlessly complicated. Is there a Logan still running around that universe too? Does he have a Laura? What about Deadpool?
I really think Marvel dropped the ball here, and it’s wild we’re still struggling with Fox continuity when it should have been relatively simple— Logan is the alternate timeline, and Deadpool takes place in the reset timeline (post-DOFP). This movie just needed a different impetus to bring together Deadpool & Logan to save their world.
I don’t see it as timelines out of whack, rather that they’re all different variants.
It gets less confusing the more one views then as different versions than trying to fit them all together.
For instance, I doubt this was New Line Blade. Thus the different costume. This was also obviously not thee Fox Torch. I don’t think Professor X (Strange) and Beast (Marvels) are from the same universe.

In Secret Wars so many characters are going to come back.
I wonder if that’s what they’re saving many of the versions of the past for.
For instance, seeing Fox version of Human Torch.
I also want them to go even further - give me Dolph Lundrgren, Jay Underwood, David Hasselhoff, Matt Salinger, Rex Smith, Eric Allan Kramer, Chip Gein, etc. Doesn’t have to be actual scenes, just like a huge cluster at some point. That would be epic.
Thinking of the ending of End Game on steroids.
Deadpool and Wolverine are definitely going to play a strong role in the next Avengers films. Also wondering if the whole saving timelines angle is going to come into play there.
