[up][up] I would love to see U-Men, they would be pretty good breath of fresh air compared to other mutant, though original show did have goverment mind control mutants and weapon Xrogram, plus Canadian goverment triying to dissect Wolverine to learn how to give his Adamantium skeleton to their soldiers. U-Men could be adapted as evolution of that simmiliar how OZP rose from Sentinel program.

[up] I could see it, esspecaly since I want Madeline to return. But as you said it could pretty easily become repeat of Goblin Queen.

I don't really want to see any dead character resurrected, especially as a Horseman by Apocalypse.

It's against his extreme "survival of the fittest" outlook.

Granted you have more wiggle room with Madelyne than Gambit.

But Canada is the one who put the metal in him

Why don’t they know how they did it?

Weapon X program was American and it was before he joined Alpha Flight.

[up][up][up] Well one of his Death's and favorite Horseman overall is a disabled mutant who had his wings cut off.

So Apoc is probably more of a potential guy. Plus Gambit went out in a pretty spectacular fashion, detonating a kaiju sized machine. His power is massive he just had a frail body which Apoc probably would want to upgrade so he has durability more fitting with his immense power he can generate.

Isnt the professor (the creator of weapon X) a US government official?

there is also the possibility that they will pull from Krakoa era with Apoc either with his characterization or with his wife.

Which would be its own intrigue tbh. Imagine the X men see the horsemen and assume it was Apocalypse behind them only to find it was actually Genesis instead, a person they knew nothing about and an effective tabula rasa for the writers to do any thing with except maybe disconnect her from Apocalypse.

Strangely lot of love for Madelyne.

I never expected Madelyne to ever be adapted because of all the messy behind the scenes shenanigans in her writing.

[up]Madelyne is a prime example of the writers of the show taking advantage of the fact they're adapting decades old stories with lots of lore and continuity around them to work out the kinks of what the original did and improve on the concept. They don't have to deal with all the bizarre drama surrounding Madelyne and Jean's revival in the comic, and they know from how that situation was received that people hate the way it was handled, so they were able to work Madelyne into their story in a way that cut out all the baggage and actually fit the story rather than being a clumsy retcon, while also speeding over or reworking the aspects people hated.

To be fair, comic fans have always been sympathetic towards Madelyne, despite some writers attempts to the contrary.

[up][up]That's true. It's a bit easy to miss, but the ability of taking the source material into a new medium and not only making it work but also ELEVATING the material, is an astonishingly awesome and hard to come by ability.

You know what Madelyne's situation initially reminded me of?

Young Justice.

That show also had redheads having clone reveals (Roy Harper)

(admittedly clone reveals isn't unusual for this genre but I couldn't help but think of it).

Actually, there was a MJ clone in 90s Spiderman too come to think of it.

Redheads and clone reveals...

Well, the situation with Roy and Will was something the show created, since Roy was never cloned in the comics.

But I can get the similarities.

So the final ep had a memorial to the X-men set up in front of their mansion.

Which raises the question.

How many are from the humans and/or mutants?

Considering how humans acted and were portrayed in the series, i think no human names were there, only mutants.

Any idea if Kang/Rama-Tut will show up in the next season? And if so will it be the same one from the end of Quantumania?

No. They stated this show is seperate from the mcu stuff.

This is a cool comment that really neatly explains Bastion's crazy origin. I like how succinct it is, highlights the insane scale Nimrod is operating.

Bastion is a bootstrap paradox.

Nimrod was sent back in time to 1959 to kill Xavier. Looks like after Bishop defeated him, a part stayed in the past and infreted the man who would become Bastion's father

Bastion ends up working on the Sentinels with Trask. Eventually creating human/Sentinel hybrids.

This technology is eventually used to create Nimrod in 2055.

Nimrod is Bastion's father and Bastion is Nimrod's.

OK, we'll see how this holds out, but maybe we have some insight now into why Demayo was never all that keen on Krakoa

The entire population of Genosha just came back to life and returned to 616 from the future in Uncanny X-Men#700
