The main reason why you ALWAYS go with FemShep in Mass Effect.

[@philcorrigan5641]

She’s basically playing three different versions of the same character in this episode, and she makes each one - Jean, Madelyne and Goblin Queen - very different

AGREE

[@matthamm384]

Didn't realize it when I watched the episode, but clone Jean to Goblin Queen had a very magical girl transformation sequence. I was like, 'That's Sailor Moon's transition!'

Beast was telling Bishop about Sinister. He wasn't there when they fought him. Same goes for Storm and Forge. The only time they met was in alternate timelines. She wasn't in the episodes with current Forge.

[@LeVidocq]

Did we ever see current Forge, who is somehow still alive in Bishop's future?

[@collins.4380]

@@LeVidocq With X-Factor

[@The2ndQuest]

@@LeVidocq Bishop's future was 2055. So only 58 years in the future where Forge is an old man (albeit "comics old" where you only get grey streaks in your hair and a few wrinkles). So he'd probably be about 85-90 years old at most. Figure between his tech, medicine background and good (mutant) genes, he aged more gracefully (and the dark futures kept him active and fit for survival purposes). But old enough to be spending most of his time in a lab instead of on the front lines.

[@karaokekingskingdom]

This for me is the whole point of comic orientated content in other media. streamline great story arcs and make them palatable to a wide and enthusiastic audience who will be eager to read more. Respect the core material and get people more engaged by it.

[@Mike19737]

Exactly!! I am an old school X Men Chris Claremont Era fan. I grew up reading and re-reading the comics. This was a FANTASTIC recreation of Inferno. It was stripped to the basic story but left enough to pay homage (while telling the story they wanted to tell) to the original storyline. IF you liked this, go read Inferno. It’s gets crazier than this! Its peak late 80s X Men right before Jim Lee comes on as artist.

[@detdatho]

I give this episode 5/5 grown men rediscovering how a sexual awaking feels.

[@kacektv9405]

Im so glad Annie Richardson finally gets a shout out in terms of Jean's backstory cuz its without a doubt one of the more amazing details of Jean's past. For anyone unaware Annie gets hit with a car while they are playing causing a young Jean to use her power for the first time. Linking her and her best friends consciousnesses together and very briefly stopping Annie from dying. This one moment of stopping death gains the attention of The Phoenix Force causing it to intervene saving Jean who has, for one shining moment, impressed a cosmic entity. Years later having taken the knowledge to fly a rocket and shielding all her friends from the radiation that is slowly but surely killing her the Phoenix once more intervenes and thus sends Jean down a path of highest highs and lowest lows. It drives me nuts that the movies just cheapen that by saying "Jean just always has that power in her we dont want to do cool cosmic things I guess"

It’s okay, Adam. I get it.

[@michaeljeacock]

to be fair to Adam's awakening, the Goblin Queen is actually wearing a lot more clothes than she does in the comic. if you don't want to be awakened, I recommend not looking up Madelyne Pryor cosplay lol.

You guys are my favorite reaction channel for a reason.

[@JonathanMartinez-ei4up]

Gambits hair is the Kiefer Sutherland (David) rocker mullet from “The Lost Boys”, and I love it. Just from a design standpoint, this show is so much fun to watch. I fill like it’s establishing a new standard, not just for animation, but in how to make a fresh adaptation of a series that’s 3 decades old.

[@matthewterlaga3022]

Love that you brushed off the implication of Morphs Danger Room comment. He’s not being a creep, he’s being kind of a dick, but the Implication is that Rogue and Magneto are in the Danger Room spending hours and hours fucking!!!

[@aterwilliger]

...if that's what the Danger Room's for, what kind of being rough on Morph was Gambit apologizing for?

[@darthekul1]

Everyone assumes it's real but the goblin queen was already messing with them at this point but it was probably just one training session and gambit fear made it go on forever , cause even if they were that blatant other people need to use the danger room and hes leading the team and takes it seriously ,and he could just use his actual bedroom if he wanted

[@vagabond8460]

The one problem I had with this episode was how FAST everyone switched up on Jean/Madelyn when they found out. It felt a little rushed, and I can understand why Madelyn got so mad at that

[@IceMetalPunk]

To be fair, the empirical evidence indicated she wasn't Jean, so there's definitely an element of "if we just trust her based on our feelings, and she's an imposter, we could all die".

[@TboneUSA07]

Yes Adam it was the Dark Web arc in the recent Amazing Spider man run. Mixed feeling about the story itself. Also Ben Reilly’s name is Chasm in that story.

[@scottredding7357]

I love that sequence of Jean Jean descending in a halo of white light.

Goblin queen jesus christ !!!! Was done so good ...so far this series been amazing so far !!!

[@tenpenthouse]

Jays reaction to sending Nathan off was so sweet

[@brandonogden2210]

I have a theory, I feel that back in Season 4 when Mr. Sinister teams up with Apocalypse, Sinister kidnapped Jean and somehow switches Jean with Madeline Pryor and Cyclops saves Madeline instead of Jean leaving her behind.

[@MuppetAdventure]

“Don’t you put that baby in the pot, no!” 😂

[@RetroRanter]

As the youth might say..hello GYAT QUEEN! 😂🤤 Im so happy this show has stomped on every bit of doubt AND expectation I had.

[@Buadih]

You guys gotta remember the time frame. As a Gen X'r I can confirm that Morph intentionally inflicting emotional trauma on a friend was a firm of bonding.

[@yrenekurtz5268]

One thing that left me scratching my head is, if this Goblin Queen is entirely psychic and doesn't have any demonic powers, where did her costume come from? My headcanon is that she was already wearing a leather corset and thigh high boots under her normal clothes because that was supposed to be a "mom and dad" night.

[@griffinsummoner]

I think she wasn't a perfect clone of Jean, and when Sinister activated the crystal it triggered previously dormant aspects of her DNA, adding transmutation or conjuration to her list of mental powers.

[@manuelvega435]

I missed Jay's 🎼"Meow-meow-meow"😂

[@TheFiddleFaddle]

Man, Jay would lose his mind if he read how Scott handled this in the comics...

Yeah only bit i didnt like. I think it would have lended to a longer story line. With it been in the same episode it seems a bit bi polar

[@vaanfluff]

Two things: Major GRR for removing Storm from the intro. 2. I like how they low-key showcased Jean's rare, oldschool ability to manipulate the fibers in her clothing to look like something else. It wasn't a magic girl transformation, it was all Jean. Or Clone Jean. You could even call it.... Mad-nificent. *runs away*
