"I think there's a perception that the Avengers are the (small A) authority in the Marvel Universe, the ones who come down on your favorite characters when they're doing their thing (something I'm as guilty of as anyone). I wanted to re-center what expectations should be for this run of Avengers and what we want to do: the Avengers are saving lives, dealing with problems that are too big for anyone else to take on. I'm less interested in them hassling the X-Men and more into seeing what it means to put your lives on the line over and over again, because you're the only ones that can."
-- Jed MacKay
The Avengers arrive at the X-Men's Factory in Alaska...so that they can play a friendly game of baseball!

I am REALLY pleased that it turned out to be the case.

Date: 2024-12-05 04:35 pm (UTC)Magneto is suffering from Resurrection sickness... apparently something that happens to mutants who have been resurrected post fall of krakoa... which... doesn't make sense as i think magneto came back a different way, and others have died alot more than him....

That's how the Phoenix was "all mutants, everywhere" because the Waiting Room included souls from the past, present, future, and alternate realities, too.)
