I like the back up story more than the main one but there are good character moments though. But wish Jubilee would go all Sarah Connor in T2.

Beast lookin massive!

 

[OutcryX]

so storm's kid from the future x-men stayed behind in the past? why? the only thing worse than past versions of present characters showing up and living side by side with them...are the future brats of present characters doing the same. i like the tiger though. is black panther her father? what are her powers?

 

[Generation Lee]

I think she has a psychic connection to the Panther and the bird. Honestly not sure what her power is.

 

[Havok83]

Rogue and Karima arent in this anymore?

 

[Generation Lee]

No Rogue is 'dead' in Uncanny Avengers but is alive in a alternate timeline it created. Karima is gone to be a cop.

[Havok83]

This team is 60% telepaths? Haha

 

[Generation Lee]

I liked this issue wasn't overly keen on the Future storyline. But I liked this issue.

 

[OutcryX]

wait...Psylocke can fly?

 

[Generation Lee]

Telekinetic? She still has that ability I think.

 

[Havok83]

wait...Psylocke can fly?

LOL....since like 2000. Where have you been? Im assuming you just forgot? Because she's been doing this for nearly 15 years now

 

[Mad Ones]

I don't recall Psylocke flying ever. The more you know.

 

[Havok83]

I don't recall Psylocke flying ever. The more you know.

Really? Im surprised by you guys bc you have been reading the books for the last several years. She first started flying when Claremont gave her that power when he returned in 2000. She's kept the TK ever since. Here's some more images of her doing it

Spoiler

 

[OutcryX]

ah...yeah, see...Claremont...I don't acknowledge most of his writing (anything after his launch of X-Men in '90)

that and i just never really paid attention to Psylocke..except when she wanted to seduce Scott...and when she got her Shadow powers and tattoo after Sabretooth gutted her...other than that..I saw she was being used here and there but she still doesn't really interest me. and the flying though developed 15 years ago..still seems random

[Generation Lee]

Liked parts of this issue but unsure if I'll stick with it after the arc.
