I don't understand how people don't get that she's a clone. Meaning that she not only has Jean's DNA but her personality as well. If Jean hadn't been kidnapped and cloned, all those memories and moments Scott had with Madelyn would have been with Jean, including their son. Scott's argument against Jean doesn't even make sense. Why would he be some memory?

[@Syncratci]

They're both going through some fucked shit but there's a difference between kissing someone in the spur of the moment and having a romantic affair behind someone's back for a month. Also something to remember is that he does this after Madeline left. She "abandoned" Scott. They both deserve some criticism but it's perfectly understandable for a fan to be annoyed with Scott for his behaviour.

[@Ren_Davis0531]

That interview blowup with Cyclops is giving me massive “Cyclops is right” vibes. Revolutionary Cyclops, and the road to that version, was such a great era. It seems that this show is slowly building up to that development. I thought it was a good choice to have Scott lose control during the interview as it sets up the later events of the decimation of Genosha. Mutants have to try and appease humans time and time again, yet they are never truly accepted as an equal sapient being. It was honestly quite hard to watch the attack on Genosha as it felt like a real terrorist attack. So many feels and emotions. And I also loved adapting the Scott/Emma mind palace cheating story with Madelyne instead as it feels so at home given this story. Scott and Madelyne share a son and lost him together. That shared parental bond and trauma is hard to replace. Especially since Scott was abandoned by his father. And Magneto speaking german to Leech as they were about to die and Gambit’s “Remember it” callback then Rogue finally being able to touch him because he’s dead in her arms 😭😭😭 This is some of the best work that Marvel has put out and hopefully the MCU can handle the X-Men like this.

Militant Cyclops would always be the best version of him, imo. Don't know why they scaled him back during Krakoa.

Yes, Genosha is in Africa. It's a island north of Madagascar, off the coast of Africa. Regarding Magneto & Rogue's relationship, in the comics Magneto was de aged. So even though he's mentally in his 50s-60s+, in the original stories, biologically he's in his 30s.

[@halowaffle25]

Yeah the Magneto/Rogue ship is wierd, if only because of the whole 'Magneto is a holocaust survivor, yet comics exist on a sliding timescale' thing. I think it works perfectly fine in universe. It makes sense that Rogue would be romantically interested in the one guy who can actually physically touch her. Especially because he's Magneto, and Magneto's dope.

[@davidmernick7360]

It also helped that their original relationship in the comics happened before Rogue and Gambit even MET. Gambit debuted about a year earlier at a time when Rogue had gone missing after a fight with Nimrod/MasterMold and was believed dead, but after the fling she didn't rejoin the team until right after Gambit had become a member. Their second attempt at a relationship happened at a time when Gambit had been turned into one of Apocalypse's Horsemen and couldn't be trusted because he still had his Death persona had in his head (just like Angel & Archangel).

[@senecavanzandt4425]

In Africa, huh?? Could the survivors of Genosha ask Wakanda for relief support after that hellish attack??

[@davidmernick7360]

@@senecavanzandt4425 Wakanda tends to stick to its own personal interests. Even when T'Challa was married to Storm he never made any real effort to help the mutant cause and that was BEFORE Namor flooded the country while high on the Phoenix Force.

Jean had the nerve to get mad at scott after she JUST kissed logan, rogue playing with gambit in his face, to go back to magneto in front of the world, to go back to gambit smh im disgusted. Magneto and gambit paying the ultimate price on top of everything that happpened was the last straw. Them two specifically need JUSTICE. They aint had peace throughout my whole lifetime 😭

[@emmittnervend2918]

Gambit was originally an omega level mutant he unfortunately never met Professor Xavier when his powers first manifest. Mr. sinister offered to help him control his powers so he performed brain surgery on Gambit, fucking with the part of the brain that controls his powers which greatly reduced his capabilities because originally Gambit could just blow things up just by looking at them.

[@doge9813]

Isn't that only in some storylines and didn't Gambit go through that procedure willingly?

[@emmittnervend2918]

@@doge9813 yeah he did that’s why I wrote Mr. Sinister offered to help him. Gambit went through the surgery willingly.

[@doge9813]

@@emmittnervend2918 oh my bad but does that take place in the 616 universe? Is it still canon?

[@emmittnervend2918]

@@doge9813 No offense taken it happened in Earth-616 and it’s still canon to my knowledge. There was a storyline in the 90’s where Gambit fought against an alternate universe version of himself who was an Omega and I believe he got his powers originally restored. But at the end of that story arch his powers were brought back down to its current nerfed level. After he defeated his evil version

[@trentonjackson4665]

If the watcher was there that means that shit was not surposed to happened because he would have stopped cable. Which mean cable is about to redo it all.

[@ShivShrike]

What's wild is that Gambit (at least in the comics) has an ability that negates touch based powers, it also shields him from mind-control and telepaths, some sort of static storing ability that is coupled with his Kinetic power. So he and Rogue could touch and she would not kill him accidentally
