I love how Scarlet has next to no agency *in a story where she rewrites reality*

Magneto's dark, emotionless face about the boat could have worked of a symbol of "This is a puppet-show fantasy and deep down part of him resists the false happiness"

No matter how bad a day you're having, you've still got it better than Scarlet Witch

11:34 Charles Xavier has a PhD in Psychology and an M.D. in Psychiatry. Unfortunately, he is not allowed to show that outside of the movies for some reason. X-Men: First Class was probably the movie were his talent shines the most.

Funny thing about Linkara's joke about how superheroes come back to life so often that murder shouldn't even be prosecuted in comic book universes: when Metamorpho died at the start of Grant Morrison's JLA run, they show his funeral's poor attendance, and the pastor at said funeral admits that not a lot of people come to superhero funerals anymore because no one expects them to stay dead.

"I don't think any of them are coming back." *Laughs in Jonathan Hickman*

Linkara, as a DC fan, you should know that the discipline of psychology is not highly regarded in comics. Easily half the people that Batman has punched over his whole career have had advanced degrees in psychology.

I love how casually Peter’s trauma is thrown in, as if he needed any more. I imagine a movie version of this event where there’s a scene of wolverine and the others talking and in the background you can see Peter miserably banging his head against the table.

"Energy can not be created or destroyed." Yeah, because superheroes haven't done the physically impossible or just said 'no' to the currently understood laws of physics/the universe before.

"Bendis forgot to double check" Silly Linkara! Bendis never reads other writer's books!

Fun fact: Magneto's outfit in House of M is based on Spanish King Juan Carlos. It was originally going to be his DLC costume in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, but Spain threatened legal action upon seeing it, leaving Magneto as the only character in UMVC3 without a DLC costume.

Fun fact: this was the starting point of a very terrible period for Jubilee, out of which she got only very recently. Basically, with M-Day she lost her powers, then got a generic gadget suit when she joined the New Warriors with the name Wondra for a while, and then got vampirified by Dracula's son, Xarus, using her as a tool for trying to overthrow his father. It took the pity of Quentin Quire (Kid Omega, in case you need another name) and some of the Phoenix Force to restore her to pre M-Day mutant, powers and all, and out-of-universe, this lasted for more than a decade. The only respite was that in all of this, she adopted a baby, and stories about that period were generally well written, but still. I know that she didn't had too many fans especially thanks to her portrayal in the '90s animated series, but she got hit hard by all of this. -Teo

The saddest part in this for me is all those little mutant kids at the academy at the end who lost their powers, who just lost a huge part of their identities and who are probably about to lose this really close knit family they have at the school.

Know when to use commas, it’s the difference between “No more mutants” and “No, more mutants”

Zero Hour is when you're really passionate about a topic and end up stretching an intended 2 page essay into a 5 page paper because there's so much to talk about. House of M is when you have a 10 page paper but can only come up with 6 pages of actual essay.

“Are you saying Layla Miller is special because she is scattered more by particles?” This is the Marvel Universe. That’s not unreasonable.

Here’s a thought: WHY HAS NO ONE MADE A SERIES ABOUT DOC SAMSON BEING A THERAPIST/PSYCHIATRIST TO SUPERHEROES??? Seriously, I would read the crap out of a series where Doc Samson has a session with well-known superheroes, or even lesser known ones, and discussing what it’s like to live their lives alongside their superhero duties, how it’s affected them personally, and why they still fight the good fight despite all the pain and heartache it’s caused them (provided it didn’t suck and was handled properly). AM I THE ONLY ONE CLAMORING FOR THIS IDEA????

The thumbnail art foreshadows the next AT4W storyline: HOUSE OF L, where Linkara and Viga rule all the comic companies.

Yes, Jessica Drew was indeed still a Skrull at this point, and that's why she was on board with the "let's just let this reality be" plan, because the Skrull empire was better off there.

11:25 I remember a What If? comic where jessica jones joins the avengers and basically figures out that the scarlett witch is going through trauma off the bat and pushes for psychiatric help for her negating the whole incident, but then elseworld comic.

The fact Wanda and Pietro were Magneto's kids was a retcon itself. The characters were already 20 years old when the revelation in "Vision and Scarlet Witch" came out.

Fun Fact of House of M Dr. Doom: He’s the leader of that world’s Fantastic 4. In this world, the space excursion that gave the Fantastic 4 their powers still happened (with Johnny Storm being replaced by John Jameson because Johnny was doing other stuff), and it ended with most of them dying. Their rocket wound up crashing into Latverian waters and when Doom collected them, he wound up finding inspiration in what happened to their bodies (especially Ben, who was still alive, but whose mental faculties were severely reduced due to his mutation), and so, utilizing magic, he imbued his wife, himself, and his son with powers and they became the Fearsome 4, with Ben being forced to become their fourth member (and being pretty much treated like a dumb animal that Doom constantly abused, even going so far as having his code name be “The It”). He also did try a coup against Magneto, and short version, he failed. Horribly.

House of MMMMMMMMMMMMM KAIBA BOY! Edit: I’ll leave now.

From Linkara's final assessment of the comic, the title "House of Meh" would be an appropriate Nickname.

No More One More Day

This is why I loved the She-Hulk series where she was a lawyer at a firm that dealt with superhuman law lol I hate that these type of stories force a drama without thinking logically

Recently read a fanfic called Civil War Hulk. It actually makes House of M and the build-up to Civil War way more sensible.

It's funny that you mention the idea of super hero therapists. In the Scarlet Witch solo series from 2015-17, she DOES go to a therapist. It went into a lot of the fallout and buildup of House of M and shows that even with the status quo, she was still hurt by it even if things returned to normal. Her therapist turned out to be a hypnotic themed supervillain making her steal jewelry but she kept seeing him before calling the police because he was a legitimately good therapist and she had a major breakthrough in her recovery. But yeah, I freaking love the Scarlet Witch. She is my favorite Avengers member because she has legitimate mental health issues and the right writer makes it relatable. In that same solo series I mentioned, she was meeting a friend who offered her wine. She refused because it would mess with her medication and she sadly and shyly has to say she's taking antidepressants. That's something A LOT of people with mental health issues struggle with because it feels taboo to mention it in public, even when it's with friends.

A bit late, but here's a list of reasons why there genuinely might not be civilian specialists catering to superhero stuff, all of which kinda support each other, please try to read the whole thing the first point is definitely the weakest, but it leads into others: 1. Economies of Scale - The Marvel universe has an insane number of heroes... by the standards of a narrative. But in absolute terms take every named, established hero and you've got maybe a small town's worth of people stretched across the entire planet. 'Superhero Doctor' would not be a feasible career path; if a total of like 20 people took that route, the industry would already be filled entirely; and so nobody can feasibly offer such a facility and DEFINITELY can't offer training for such. 2. Dangerous Power Imbalances - continuing on from the last one, obviously Tony Stark or some other quite frankly insultingly rich super could just pay for an entire illogical industry to exist, but in doing so it would basically give him the kind of power over the greater superhero community that they've fought against him getting like three times now. Breaking doctor patient confidentiality is a high crime, but throw a doctor to ALL the superheroes in the mix - particularly someone who's normal and therefore can't defend themselves when the villains come knocking - and the crime actually becomes so high that it can no longer be punished. A therapist can't ruin a hobo because the police will come down on him. Superheroes are already effectively the highest enforcing body in the land, and there's no big brother that can watch over them if some of their dark secrets start getting out. 3. Logistics - so, you can solve the first two by just finding a rare and special individual who is naturally geared to do it; rather than trying to pick from an industry; and you can solve the second by just ensuring perfect - PERFECT - secrecy AND finding an individual of inhuman ethical standard. Great! ...How? How could somebody who did want to set up a superhero doctor possibly go about finding an appropriate candidate across the whole entire world. How exactly would they vet a candidate for a field that does not exist without creating public awareness of what they're making and thereby endangering the whole project? Just ask Heimdal really nicely and trust what he says? Just because it makes sense that a specific thing exists doesn't mean you can find it. 4. Different Superheroes are not the Same - Nephrologists exist because a kidney is pretty much always going to be a kidney. There are different diseases that affect it. There are different blood types and allergies that affect how the body reacts to treatment. But it's always pretty much gonna be a kidney and you can use the same knowledge set for each. Get a superhero dermatologist to try and look at The Thing, Mister Fantastic, Luke Cage, and The Hulk and he's gonna be telling at least one of those guys 'I have no fucking clue what I'm looking at and don't know what you want from me.' This isn't as big a problem for pure psychology, per se, but it absolutely is for pregnancy given that even in the examples you mentioned one of the pregnancies is caused by a disembodied demon soul, and the other one is caused by *subtly different demon shenanigans*. You could find a specifically demon-based pregnancy specialist, but then you're asking for somebody trained in a deliberately difficult skillset that has come up a single digit number of times ever. 5. 'Normal' doesn't work that way - So to tie up all of this; in order to have a doctor for superheroes that would realistically work out; you would have to find somebody of perfect morals, who can keep things secret that everybody wants to know for like fifty years, who just seemed to show up when the world needed somebody with those qualities because there'd be no story otherwise, whose idea of a science degree is being amazing at dealing with like 20 wholly disparate concepts that should really all require their own training and at best fit a general theme, and who has enough luck and general favor of the universe to not just die during any of the myriad unreasonably dangerous things that probably shouldn't be survivable. You know what we call people like that? A SUPERHERO. Yeah, it seems if there's a demand for something it should probably exist after fifty years; the problem is that at some point it did have to START existing and there are a lot of reasons why that'd be a disaster.

19:57 In the form of media I’m most familiar with, anime and manga, a dark expression like this doesn’t necessarily mean something evil on the person expressing it. Sure, it has been used that way, but when I see this, I don’t see an ominous, evil force at work (not from Magneto,) but rather, a dark realization. Like, a sense of wrongness, as in “I’m not supposed to have grandchildren. So why are there grandchildren in my house?”

Considering Quicksilver was desperately trying to save his sister's life with no gain to himself when half the heros did vote to kill her doesn't really seem that villainous to me. Everyone in House of M is culpable for what happened...it's just the Maximoff twins get the blame for everything! Also the magneto parentage retcon was stupid AF

That memory stuff between Spidey and Strange aged well…

Depowering the Scarlet Witch safely is as easy as getting Leech to sit outside her door and giving him a gameboy Actually... Leech SHOULD be a superhero psychologist!

This was my problem with House of M. Wanda is abused, broken, and emotionally unstable and everyone's answer is to isolate her on an island. This is the worst answer! Their plan was essentially to send an emotionally damaged woman who is losing her grip on reality into solitary confinement where they consistently remind her things are real.

7:06 Magneto is a holocaust survivor, how is he not completely unhinged after going through _another_ genocide of his people?

On DC's Earth-16 (the world of the _Young Justice_ TV show), both Black Canary and Miss Martian are therapists with specialties in metahuman and superheroic issues. I want to see that in more media involving superheroes.

House of M as a story was OK to me. House of M as an event ROYALLY pissed me off. Because my favorite comics at the time were the X books, and reducing mutants to only 198 individuals effectively killed (metaphorically for most, LITERALLY for others) all storytelling potential of a school for mutants that had been running in comics before. Joe Quesada effectively did to the X-books what he did for Spider-Man: He forced them back to a time when they were limited to a smaller cast while at the same time giving the entire setting a brand new deluge of pointless conflict that distracted from the pre-existing conflict. It also, for SEVEN YEARS, limited the number of new X-Men characters that could enter the setting. Sure having a lot of mutant characters was a bit of a problem, since there were so many, but that was also the appeal. IMO an event comic should create the potential for MORE stories, not reduce it. Crisis on Infinite Earths did it too, but they only trimmed universes, they didn't remove an entire character archetype from ever appearing again. House of M was to Marvel what devastating the Green Lantern Corps. was to DC. Also by making mutants the dominant number, House of M basically created My Hero Academia almost 10 years early.

Peter Parker shaved his head as he was on the run after being exposed as a non mutant in the spider-man tie in mini series.

A series of counselling sessions between Doc Samson and Wanda could have made a great story. Sort of a Heroes in Crisis that wasn’t dredged up from the bowels of Hell.

30:35 Did... did Linkara just predict the ending of No Way Home? I think Linkara just predicted the ending of No Way Home.

How would one help Wanda? Maybe get trained psychologists and therapists who have experience dealing with trauma like her’s, with heroes around to suppress her powers if need be, instead of having *one man* scream at her to “put her children back” and keeping her in the remains of a demolished city. Just throwing it out there

I remember it being a major plot element in Silk that she was seeing a psychiatrist specialized in dealing with costumed hero's. She got the reference from Mr. Fantastic and indeed she badly needed it after the whole "Was locked in a bunker by a paranoid millionaire". In the most recent run of Unstoppable Wasp Nadia Pym-Vandyne, who had been raised from birth by an offshoot of the Red Room before escaping, was adopted by Jannet Vandyne the original Wasp. Jannet made sure her adopted daughter got to see a psychiatrist regularly and once it became clear she had inherited her father's Bi-polar disorder got put on medication. Psychiatrists for Super Heros exist in the Marvel Universe but apparently only in the comics that get canceled.

Funny thing was, there was a “What If?” comic that had the Scarlet Witch erased the powers of all superhumans and not just most mutants. Basically, it was “Act of God” done *WELL* . ...also, I can’t *wait* for next week’s episode. I have so much to say that one..

I'm loving the Linksano's Science Corner segment

If Gwen Stacy is still alive, doesn't that mean most (or all) of the clone saga never took place? (And the silver age never ended?)

Calling No Way Home, two years before No Way Home

12:02 to 12:15 I read that in “Secret Origins Annual Vol 2 #2,” Wally West is talking to a therapist to explain what caused his powers to decrease. The therapist told him that his powers are decreasing because Barry’s death caused him to create a mental block to let Wally not be faster than Barry as a way to respect him and his wishes.

31:44 I love when you start hyping something up only to totally deflate it with what really happened

Linkara's rant about superhero psychiatrists reminded me of the Iron Man 3 post credits scene where Tony is venting to a sleeping Bruce Banner who wakes up and tells him he’s not that kind of doctor

30:35 "hilarious in hindsight" moment FTW!

I kind of want to make a Hero or Villain named 'Tubi Faire'. His power: If he says 'Te be fair' and lists a possibility, it will, 100%, be true. It's a reality warping power. But 1) He has to be able to *Say it naturally.* No just randomly saying 'Te be fair' and making it work. It has to be organic in the conversation. Said to someone else. 2) It has to *make sense*. He can't say 'Well, that crook stole $1000. To be fair, I want to fly.' Because those have no connections. No logic. 3) It only works for the first sentence said. IE: Capt. America: I can't believe that thief stole $20,000 and won't tell us why! How greedy. Tubi: To be fair, he could have done it to to help his family? *Power kicks in* And maybe he does not want to tell us, to keep them safe? (power would only work on the first sentence. Not the second thing said) I dunno. It's silly, and it would take a hell of a writer to make such a power work. :P

30:29 As of this year’s release of the trailer of Spider-Man: No Way Home, this has become all so relevant 😂

I really like Peter’s reaction. I’m surprised they didn’t have him turn on the heroes. Think about it, he now basically had his perfect life and considering how many times his, and the life of at least half the heroes, has been shit on and any happiness they normally gain is taken.

Ah yes, the genocide cycle of the X-Men. I hate it. Every genocide story in X-Men is the same storyline repeated with a different cause. It makes the X-Men look like idiots every single time.

More Bad Bendis Comic Reviews especially looking forward to someday Linkara reviewing Bedis's run on Superman. Someday!

If only Wanda whispered "No More Crossovers"

I have never heard such a nuanced discussion of killing for the greater good and I am here for it. Also for some reason I kept expecting the doctor list to turn into a rendition of Modern Major General. 21:40 I think the idea is similar to how the immune system works. Logan's brain is a part of his body and messing with someone's memories will involved damaging their neurology. Perhaps at this point his brain is so used to healing from this that it does so much better than before, essentially meaning Wolverine has retcon vaccination. 24:00 Screaming in anguish is the proper reaction to learning Spider-Man 616's life.

Until this opening, I never really pondered the mental illness/villainy thing in. Man, that's a complicated one. On one hand, constantly having mental illness LEAD to villainy certainly creates a stigma. On the other hand, there's something to be said about considering the mental state of a person doing something horrible. There's a reason that courts have an insanity defense (or whatever the proper legal name is for it). And while the former is tragic for people who suffer from mental illness that would never hurt a fly, considering how many people have been forever villainized or worse, imprisoned or even killed due to actions caused by PTSD, manic-depression, or some form of trauma-induced psychotic break, one could argue that the latter is more important. I suppose it ultimately just comes down to how it's handled. Considering the things that writers have put some of these characters through, in reality there'd probably be a lot more heroes with some form of PTSD, at the very least.

Linkara: "It's Secret Empires" Me: *passionately screams 'NOOOOOOOO' into the night*

"I don't think any of them are comic back." Actually, Professor X had mental recordings of their personalities and memories, to eventually put in new bodies, so, yeah. The geonocided population of Genosha? They all came back.

Doctor Who taught me to never take continuity *too* seriously

Bendis doesn't just decompress event comics, his Young Justice run takes what could be a 6 to 8 issue story and stretches it to 18 issues... with the comic getting canceled 2 issues later

Mental Illness = Villainy is one of my berserk buttons. I am not the sanest and I am trying to be nice, dammit! It's things like that that make me angry!

7:01 Note to myself: One day, mention that cliche of "heroes and villains always coming back from dying in comic books", in a story, with someone who killed someone without pain being easily forgiven because said trope, AND maybe even have a normal person be angry that sure, the heroes and villians get better, but the normal people (the supporting cast exclusive to runs) never have that luxury except for the big reality restoring stuff.

7:17 *Dawn of X readers holding laughter on the back*

“What’s this? A Linkara video on a Monday? My briefcase full of BEES ought to put a stop to that!”

27:16 "Quick, Wolverine! Cyclops! You gotta do the fusion dance!" You know....that would've solved the Jean Grey love triangle.

One of my biggest problems with the treatment of Wanda during this time was the combination of her mental illness and incredible power being the reasoning for her no longer being stable enough to act as a hero, when not long after that, Bendis decided the incredibly powerful Sentry's mental illness was totally manageable because he wanted him in New Avengers.

I remember when I first read House of M I was really annoyed by Emma Frost's whole reasoning for why they should kill The Scarlet Witch, she says that if the world ever found out that she was responsible for Disassembled that it could hurt mutant human relations but killing her wouldn't stop that and would probably make it much worst. The knowledge of what she did could still get out and her being dead wouldn't stop people from seeing a mutant as having killed their heroes, and now they also have to worry about someone painting all mutant as savages who turn on their own and kill those with mental problem or just use the fact that they tried to cover up SW's crime to discredit the X-Men.

A place for Heroes to go for mental health........I am going to put a pin in that might be helpful later this month.

“Spider-Man lies about being a mutant to maintain a higher social standing” This idea of a mutant dominant society like this is good, real good. Seeing Magneto in control without wiping out the humans is great, I’d read a miniseries like this. Zoom in from the “restore reality” thing and just focus on Spider man struggling with this new society.

To answer your question about Spider-Woman, yes she is a Skrull.

No more mutants now, I mean it! Anybody want a peanut?

Before heroes in crisis started, I thought it will be about superhero's doctors, psychologists or therapist who help them relearn skills after accidents/getting implants/or artificial limbs

7:21 Funny enough, Hickman's X-Men really are trying to bring those back from the brink 23:24 I would love to see someone giving THE "SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION" in response to the "Why is the sky blue" only for the character to say "You know what I mean. Also I didn't know that." 27:05 And now Magneto's ONLY KID because MARVEL is stubborn enough to keep the retcon of "Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver are not mutants OR Magneto's father and they never were" (almost as stubborn as them keeping the "Mephistazo")

I hate that this is the one thing that defined Scarlet Witch for the rest of comics, even after it got "undone". Wanda really is so much more than "No more Mutants"

Damn, a Wolverine-Cyclops fusion would be awesome 😂 Amazing close and long range weapons plus adamantium skeleton and healing factor? Yes, please 😇

30:36 "I mean next you'll be asking me to heal a bullet wound and that's just ridiculous!"

11:40 That is why I love Worm and the Parahumans universe, all of that exists in those stories. Regular people are not only trained and prepared to assist with the capes in support roles like medics and psychologists but they also are (admitedly nominaly) in charge of most mayor parahuman groups. Doctor Yamada having a therapy session with one of the heroes or villains was always a highlight of that story.

I always assumed Charles was a psychologist, I think he was depicted as helping holocaust survivors at one point in the comics, as well as Jean Grey in some versions of the story. I know First Class said he was a genetics professor initially but I assumed he is the type who went after many degrees over time. He can live in people's heads so I assumed a psychic would have natural interest in become a qualified healer of mental illness.

I really can't understand how, in an era when you can look things up so easily online, and we have various online encyclopedias and the like available, that a writer doesn't bother to look up at least recent events involving characters. I stopped reading Western comics years ago, but I do distinctly recall hearing about Doctor Strange's whole 'chaos magic isn't real' thing and thinking, "Hold on, haven't _you_ used chaos magic before? Aren't there, like, several characters who specifically use chaos magic other than Scarlet Witch?"

It wouldn't be the first time the X-Men thought of killing one of their friends. A similar thing happened with Jean when she became the Dark Phoenix.

Wanda's kids are still kinda alive. Great, now what about Wally's kids.

I think it’s crazy how no one gives Scarlet Witch the credit she deserves for creating My Hero Academia

Linkara's rant about super hero phydhologicist is better than anything put on paper on Heroes in Crisis. About those X-Students who lost their powers: apperently, the ever inclusive and tolerant X-Men just sent them home since they could attent mutant school, despite, y'know, most of the kids were either runaways or kicked out of their homes. Good job, Scott!

Persona 5 Royal did the "altered reality utopia" idea best since its entire narrative consistently questions the idea that returning reality to its base state is actually just, eventually settling on the idea that the protagonists just dont want it this way and thats why they'll fight rather then explicitly implying it is wrong. Whats more is that the antagonist, and the cause of the shift, genuinely has everyones interest in mind rather then having some underlying selfish motive or mental illness.

You can read so many things into Cyclops' speech. He can't stand a "happy" universe that has him married to Emma instead of Jean. He can't handle someone other than himself (or his ideals of Xavier) getting mutants into a better place. He can't actually handle mutants being in a better place. (Yes, I know it isn't fair. Scott wants humans and mutants to reach equality, not to simply reverse positions. And he does want to fight for and "earn" it, not just force it into existence ala Wanda.)

Linkara: "Wanda's literally falling to pieces? Oh God, Janemba's the real villain! Quick, Cyclops and Wolverine, do the fusion dance!" Me, a Dragon Ball fan: "Holy crap, I never noticed that before!" Also, I have to say: House of M was a good idea in concept, but awkward in execution. Some parts, such as the shot in the church, were interesting and gave the story an ominous tone. Almost like the world was Wanda's dream with everyone else stuck in it, and that it could turn into a nightmare at any moment. Final thoughts: 1. So that cliffhanger with the lost mutant energy didn't do much? Damn, that could've been a good story. 2. Of course, Doctor Doom tried to date Scarlet Witch. Between her, Storm and Invisible Woman, Doom seems to have a thing for women who can kick his ass. 3. The next event's Secret Empire? I'm going to get it out of the way, I think Earth's Mightiest Heroes did the "evil Steve" story better.

30:43 Linkara did you write No Way Home? lol

House of m I thought was a okay story but man oh man I really don’t like this story destroying half the mutant population literally and making the x-men go super dark and gritty thanks bendis thanks a lot.

Here after wandavision

Just to give you answer like why no one suggested a therapist, I have autism and suffered from depression. Ev en at times where I have volunteered I have suffered from immense depression and a lot of tough situations. I have gone to ERS, been with several therapists, mental hospitals, and I can tell you not always do they work. Sadly, it actually gets worse. With the age of social media, obbsession over phones, and how peer pressure affects; things are worse for people in these situations. Sadly, even times when I need help I feel lonelier. Sadly, plastic surgery is treated better than mental health. Not a joke, more a sad one thou, but I experienced too many times. It's uncertain how it would be in the comic book world. Not like Arkham Asylum, but still not as optimistic.

The thing is at the time this was made there were at least two qualified psychiatrists with experience in treating super powered people, Leonard Samson and Dr. Ashley Kafka. Also, If I recall correctly, when Marvel Boy/Justice was in prison for killing his father, he attended group therapy and he was being held at a prison specifically design to hold super powered criminals.

You are correct Linkara. Jess was indeed still a skrull at this point. Originally the plan was to launch her solo during House Of M with the planned reveal at the end of the first issue being the revelation Jess was actually the skrull queen in disguise but they decided against it

>Why is the sky blue? Well, if Aldnoah taught me anything, it's about Rayleigh Scattering. And also that the answer to "how many references to Odin can we pack into one character without most of the audience noticing?" is "a lot, apparently."

"Oh wait, no, this is Wolverine" - And this is why the entire premise of Wolverine and the X-Men (It's the X-Men book where Wolverine has become headmaster of the renamed Jean Grey memorial academy and is focusing on that) is hilarious, and they go for a suitably comedic tone to the book.

32:40 I would say she was an Anti villain A hero is our best qualities doing the right thing. An antihero is our worst qualities doing the right thing. A villain is our worst qualities doing the wrong thing. An antivillain is our best qualities doing the wrong thing. At least that is how I go by it

7:19 As of Dawn of X, all the Genosha victims probably HAVE come back, so...

My god...it’s been so many years. I always thought the next big crossover event would undo M Day

30:36 no way home looks promising
