I know it's capeshit, but X-Men was different. It deliberately explored oppression and othering. It's one of the only casts that features an explicit survivor of the Holocaust.

I just feel bad about this acquisition, but I'm hopeful the comics will continue their momentum in exploring systemic issues with mutants after Krakoa.

eh idk it still does liberal both sides shit, magneto should be the good guy but they make him go too far like all other lib media

Some of the writers have him as the good guy, although that's not very common.

"Magneto did nothing wrong." Was making the rounds for a while

If we did, it would be through the X-Men

Ugh I can't believe they want a black FEMALE to play Storm. This is DEI WOKE trash.

Best we'll probably get is derivative '90s nostalgia-fueled slop.

At least '97 was good

after reading the comics after the end of krakoa, im not very hopeful

I'm in the denial phase at this point. Undoing Krakoa was rough.

It's pretty much the only capeshit I like. My hope is that they at least do a better job with them than Fox.

That's my hope. I liked Logan, but I'd want to see a story more about mutants in general.
