      Only problem is, this is beginning to show how convoluted Claremont's and later X-Men writers' plots were in those days. Like Bastion's many retcons. At least this show has the benefit of hindsight and can drop easter eggs along the way; but still... This old comics reader followed Marvel from the early days of the 70s, but the 90s is when I couldn't take it any more and gave up on mainstream Marvel altogether, a combination of awful 90s artstyle where every average artist was aping the mediocre Jim Lee, and sub-par writing. If the writers of this show keep mining that era, it won't end well, too many inane plot back then. I'd love to see a lighter show about the OG team in the Kirby style.

However, it is highly likely that a executive or ten only just found out about it and immediately fired him for tarnishing their image, as conventional "wisdom" has them particularly afraid of any sexual "controversies" (on top of a good chance that they were personally disgusted out of either conservative or pseudo-progressive moralism) and typically don't keep in touch with the chatter outside their rich bubble. Basically James Gunn "scandal" 2.0. The fact that Beau DeMayo wasn't publicly denounced (and that they kept in his cameo in ep 5, to boot) makes it highly unlikely that there are any actual skeletons at risk of spilling out of the closet. On a side note, his OF was slightly spicy, not hardcore. Not that there'd be anything objectively wrong with the latter, but it'd at least make the freakout sort of defensible.

      I wish they could upgrade all their outfits, but now the most recent comics are going backwards to the early 90s looks again probably to try to prepare for the movies making them look that way. I'll be honest I'm so bored of the early 90s looks and I really get tired when casual fans assume that's their ONLY looks

      I would argue that the dream is even more important than ever. Fight fire with fire and the whole world burns, and even if an eye for an eye doesn't make the whole world blind, two eyes for an eye certainly does.
      Of course Xavier and the X-men should defend themselves and their fellow mutants, but so many conflicts are the result of two wrongs trying to make a right, when all it really does is provide petty short term satisfaction, pushing the pendulum back and forth between extremes until it spirals out of control.
      When people see a leader of mutants urging harmony between human and mutant kind despite what some bigoted humans have done to them, this shows just how sincere his goals for peaceful coexistence really are. Look at Gandhi, Martin Luther King etc...these steadfast advocates of peace had every reason to punch back twice as hard at their persecutors, but they remained true to their principles and purpose to the end, and inspire us to stamp out ignorance, reach mutual understanding and root out the misguided reasons for prejudice still.
      Let Magneto be the mutant's retribution, while Xavier continues to be the alternative.

    I hate to be that nerd, but as a physics professor, the magnetic field converges at all points of the earth. He went to the North Pole because the magnet field is "strongest" at the poles. Also, he is not reversing the polls. That wouldn't do what we saw in the show. He is using the magnetic field to create an EMP that is wiping out all machines. That or he is removing our magnetosphere and allowing cosmic radiation to do that, but that would also cook the earth and that didn't seem to happen. It is neat though that you can see the Northern lights all the way around the earth as he is doing it.

    Magneto's not a villain, nor is he an anti-hero. But I'm not going to call him a hero either. He saved Mutants from a genocide. He did what had to be done, period. One reason I have loved Marvel comics so much is because their "villains" have been so complex. They're the heroes of their story. As a POC, I can COMPLETELY understand her comment of "no one seemed shocked or surprised." When you're used to seeing injustice done on a daily basis, it's not a surprise when you see it on a massive scale. Worse, you see it as "par for the course." The one's who are ultimately are surprised by it are those who don't have to deal with it on a daily basis.

  • @joshualogan84

    I actually think the opening with Asteroid M and Magneto's final move of a world wide EMP was from Fatal Attractions. In that story, he raises M from the surface of the Earth and to stop the governments of the world from attacking him (and also shutting down a forcefield, SHIELD puts up to keep him out, he descends into the atmosphere and sends off a world wide EMP. This causes massive amounts of death and destruction. Planes fall out of the sky, hospitals lose life support systems, this not only gives humans more reasons to hate Mutants, it causes Xavier to lead a strike force against Magneto, Xavier also joins the battle in a body armor suit allowing him to walk and at the end of Fatal Attractions, Magneto rips out Wolverine's admantium and Xavier is 'forced' to mind wipe Magneto, it's this action that leads to Onslaught.
    Season 2 could very well be the Onslaught building within Charles and it's eventual manifestation. Instead of Zero Tolerence being born from the ashes of the Onslaught fear, we have Onslaught born from the Ashes of the Zero Tolerence era. Perhaps another 'fixed' point in time?
