There’s also Bastion pulling strings for Xavier returning. Him releasing the news of Xavier being alive will divide humans & mutants ever further. His “death” brought people together. The fact Xavier is alive & allegedly has a alien empire at his beck & call can leave severe implications

You def called this one! Only that the divide is also caused by the ploy of Xavier's death and now the murder of Gyrich.

After watching this last episode, I think when Cable mentions that "he is coming", I think he's referring to Apokolypse and not Bastion. Magneto might become weaponized by Bastion. Xavier will return, try to stop Magneto and we'll get Onslaught by the end of Season 2.

She first appeared in the 2000s, not the 90s. It was kinda dumb to even assume it was her in the first place. Her motives have nothing to do with Friends of Humanity and Sentinel Tech. She is evil just because she has to be the opposite of Prof X and that's pretty lame. She is also very alien for a story centered around humans vs mutants when she isn't either.
