[personal profile] long_silence posting in [community profile] scans_daily
Hey sorry about the lack of posts lately. I had finals and then my internet was disconnected for a while.

So I made this massive post to try to catch everyone up on the end to Age of X.

X-Men Legacy 247
7 Pages from

When we left off Legacy/Reaper/Rogue and Gambit had snuck their way to the centre of Fortress X where they found its secret. The rest of the Universe outside of the Force Walls protecting the fortress was gone, the entire Universe was hidden inside a box right there in the Fortress.

Soon after Legacy and Gambit are confronted by X, who up until this point of the crossover had been a mysterious computer-ish voice, who seemed to know all and see all in the Fortress. X sowed seeds of descent amongst the residents, attempting to turn General Magneto against Legacy and the Moonstar Cadre against Magneto.

It's revealed that X is Moira, and she wants them to drop the box.



Moira reveals that in this world she is God and she is Omnipresent, swiftly defeating Gambit and Reaper. 

Meanwhile the Force Warriors have taken over Fortress X and knocked out Magneto. Just as they are about to fight the Moonstar Cadre, Xavier awakens and stops them.





Most of the mutants in the Fortress gather and Xavier uses a lot of exposition to explain how the Age of X came to be, flashbacking to something hinted at in X-men Legacy 244 the issue before the crossover started.






Something's been eating those imprisons fragments of Legion's mind. Xavier meets it.





Using Moira's face distracts Xavier long enough for Moira to knock him into a coma. Moira/X's power seems to be similar to Proteus' reality warping, she used this opportunity to create the Age of X reality. 7 days ago.

Moira meets them all, box in hand and denies Xavier's accusations.





Moira drops the Force Walls and unleashes thousands of Human soldiers and Sentinels upon them all. 

New Mutants 24
4 pages (3 full pages and 2 panels that are each about a third) 

While almost all of the mutants in the Fortress are distracted fighting the human coalition, Moira takes this opportunity to try to destroy the box. Xavier, Magneto, and Katherine Pryde manage to stop her. And Legion confronts her.





Legion wipes out the attacking voices with a wave of his arms. And then he proceeds to put everything back to normal.








I know a lot of people on s_d are going to be happy about this Chamber development. 

And now some more aftermath

X-men Legacy 248

4 pages



Legion then grows to giant size. He's like the Marvel equivalent of Dial H for Hero now.  


Chamber doesn't actually appear in this issue but we do get some clarification. 



People have been wondering about Revenant since she first appeared in teasers for this crossover, we now learn just who and what she is.





Here is the cover Marvel released for X-men Legacy 258



They're finally coming back.

Over all I really enjoyed this crossover. Though the large battle against the Human Coalition in the last issue seemed a bit pointless, but there was a lot of good too.

I feel like it used the massive cast of X-men really well. 
It repowered classic Chamber.
Frenzy is getting a lot of spotlight and is being brought to the forefront.
X-men Legacy is going to become an actual team book again as a consequence with Xavier, Magneto, Rogue, Gambit, Frenzy and Legion.
Rachel, Havok and Polaris are coming back
It looks like there are going to be lasting repercussions on some of the other X-men like Hellion and Pixie (Who had a really fun page in this issue that I wish I could have posted), more repercussions than actually I expected.

On the not so good there seems to be some Rogue/Magneto stuff coming up. Yeah not looking forward to that.

*sigh* In a coma, I think. Hellion ripped her to shreds when Bastion infected her with a virus. She almost killed an entire team of X-Men and she wasn't able to control her body at the time. Sadly, we all knew that was coming because we can't have a robot NOT try to kill all organic life..

Marvel doesn't like super heroes from India. (No Avengers from there. The only two X-Men are gone. Only Kavita Rao is left.)
