It’s a story about how mutants live. Not just as people, but as a People. It’s mischievous and sarcastic and a looong way from being holy. It’s a book about ethics and culture and growing fungus out of your own brain. It’s a book about rituals and thrills, sexy times and casual death. Above all it’s about Shared Ideas, in all their terrible beauty, and what they can do to the minds, hearts, and souls of the communities adrift on their tides. -- Si Spurrier

Which finally led me to an interesting thought, about how the once-saintly parents of mutantdom, Charles and Moira, have trended in one direction while the previously villainous children, David and Kevin, have gone the opposite way. A decades long changing of the guard.

More! Scottish! Villains! etc
