MMXI questions and hypothesis'
By Caligula 14 Comments
recently ComicVine has seen an influx of MMXI solicits. They really make me want to start reading " Uncanny X-Men" again. Now mind you, let me pre-face this whole blog by saying that I haven't read any X-men stuff in the last 4-5 years or so, the reason why Is every time I pick up a new Uncanny X-Men arc I am immediately turned off by the writing. I think the last one I read that I enjoyed was X-Force Sex and Violence and that was still not extremely good, but it was tolerable. Anyway my point is when going through these solicits I don't really have any sort of frame of reference. It is mostly just crack ideas and theories. But lets get started.
the first one I'm going to address is this one.
In this one Colossus is putting on Juggernaut's helmet (which can defend against high level telepaths), and the caption reads "I will do what needs to be done". Which to me indicates that Colossus is going to do something he wouldn't normally do like perhaps Kill or Harm a certain Woman with telepathic abilities... hence the Helmet. Maybe when something happens to Cyke this sends Emma into a fit, or Maybe Cyke and Emma were already doing something bad and Wolverine and Colossus take them out.
But as for the latter image. G-Man also wrote an article recently called " Professor X's Secret Agents" his latest Off My Mind. In it he reminds us how underhanded the Professor can be. And Maybe Colossus finds out about his deception and turns on Xavier (although the more I think, about it the more likely the first option is). Also what if Emma and Cyke are actually in the right and go up against the good Professor, Only to be thwarted by Xavier's team.
Well these images certainly raise a lot of questions and interests with me. Maybe one of you out there who know more about what has been going on in the X-Men's lives than me has some better hypothesis. and can explain why I'm guessing wrong or right.
