Hickman. Same problem as with Moira, he completely reimagined them, and now there's a stupid Hickman OC wearing the name and appearance of a character you used to know.
I really hope this part is just a joke, but everyone else in X-Men books seems to be gay or half-gay now.
The Moira shit I don't mind, it has only been true since Secret Wars and the entire story was going to undo itself via her 11th life until he jumped ship.
Yeah, but when the key medium of conveying the story alone already puts me off, then EVERYTHING else can go frick itself.
From my standpoint, even if your story is irredeemably shit, I should still be able to get some entertainment value out of it by reading the actual lines of text at least, which I won't when the lettering itself is a turn off
Backstory retcon pileup, he has like 6 origins at this point and all of them are canon at the same time while often being contradictory.
Also that demon he's using for a shoulder parrot has a vegana for a mouth. I think I'd have problems too if there was a demonic pussy literally exhaling into my fricking ear.
Remender didn't necessarily expand on it in a good way. "You're only invulnerable because of Celestial armor, not your own powerset" is something haters have been mocking him for ever since.
Well I mean they did back in the IIRC early 2000s. He's actually the like...8th Apocalypse as part of the Apocalypse Succession, he's supposed to be a Celestial control mechanism to regulate evolution and make sure that it continues at the pace the Celestials wanted.
Technically speaking he's been usurped before and isn't actually the current Apocalypse, that's actually technically Evan who took the position in 616 and nobody ever took it back from him.
If you say "that sounds interesting/moronic but how does that mesh with everything else about the mutants/celestial engineering" then you're right and it doesn't but it is still, somehow, fricking fully canon alongside a bunch of other contradictory but supposed to be canon at the same time bullshit because the Celestials and their experiments on Earth are like a fricking microcosm of everything wrong with the fricking self contradictory mess that is Marvel Cosmic. We're like 6 anti-Celestials and 8 Galactus origin retcons deep at this point and probably on our like fourteenth fricking made up bullshit explanation for the Beyonders and don't even start with me about Eternity, but the Celestials are even fricking worse even without that being like a dozen self contradicting loops just by themselves.
Time for my personal autism regarding contradictory Apocalypse bullshit. >uh you need blood of Apocalypse to be a Horseman >no all you really need is a Celestial Death Seed to be a Horseman of Death
It's been like a five years span between two stories, it's not some obscure factoid from a book written decades ago and a few throwaway lines could help salvage it but >Marvel >editorial
I like both Milligan's X-Men and Remender's Uncanny X-Force, it's just lack of effort to keep any sense of continuity that annoys me.
>technically Evan who took the position in 616 and nobody ever took it back from him.
Honest to god Evan deciding to do his job and announcing that Mutantkind has failed to meet requirements for the last 6000+ years since they constantly fail all the time and for being evil homosexuals during Krakoa and just purging them all would have been Kino.
Apparently it was his ex-wife Genesis.

It's a wonder why he went back to her. He should've stayed with Rictor, honestly.
no warrior-queen to bust his balls
He's bisexual

His wife got the kids in the divorce
He idolized them for years
But when he met them again she has raised them to be lame losers
That letter spacing annoys me greatly
Whoever the frick's been doing Marvel's lettering in the past 8 years or more needs to be shot
Compared with the people doing the writing, the art, the coloring and the editing, the letterers' work is the least of our problems with Marvel.

HE IS THE ROCKS OF THE ETERNAL SHORE. CRASH AGAINST HIM AND BE BROKEN!
>when a cartoon adaptation perfects a character and the comics refuse to just copy what it did

writers except for remender never expand on his celestial tech and subsequently we haven't had a good x-writer since uncanny x-force.
