I'm not sure I get what the problem is here. the shi'ar "aliens" the savage lands ala "juristic park" since the high evolutionary made the place, through his science and was a partner of mister sinister, and mojoworld "different dimensions" and the concept "time travel" are all sci-fi based and if most under stand star trek and other stuff in other movies they'll under stand these concepts. the point of mojo world was to show Exploitation they were other parts of of that but he represented it in the sense of how out there certain things like Jerry springer they just too the words "out there" literally in his case.
but Exploitation is supposed to be what the x-men fight against. all those things were used in stories that showed what the x-men stood for and fought against especially when they helped other people that reminded them of their own troubles/ struggles cause they were in similar situations.
same with the shi' ar
those stories were done to bring up social commentary issues in sci-fi setting much like other sci -fi in any medium is supposed to be done.
Especially seeing that professor X made the X-men to protect all of humanity from any threat ( which means all threats damn it) after facing the shadow king and guys like Lucifer the alien that crippled him and put him in wheel chair in the first place.
if any thing all those thing showing up give greater meaning to what the X-Men are doing and showing the rest of humanity they are there to help and protect their fellow humans as well want normal lives among them.
Just like how the x-men should add none mutant members to their team which would also give greater meaning to what they stand for as well.
Now though if you did what the rest of Hollywood does by saying adding " magic" Ala doctor strange and ghost rider but confusing what's used for "telepathy" which is supposed to sci-fi based in it, like the rest of holly wood does often in some areas. Cause the people that do that in Hollywood never under stood that is not a" magic based power."
Then I'd get that complaint. that's(magic) fantasy base. that why lord of the ring is considered fantasy. At Least the other stuff I just mentioned prior which is sci-fi actually has more of a chance of be coming real to a degree. concept wise. any way I agree with CB. the thing that made the marvel universe cool was variety and in the case of the x-men when they used that it always gave greater meaning in what they stood for. if you under stood how to use that concept of what I'm getting at right. that is. too bad fox and some people still don't get that yet. too much limited thinking there. and javi your not included in that latter "last" comment. i mean fox and the influence on that kind of thinking.
