It was stupid, but I wish they'd have stuck to it. As an aside Magneto being able to kill phoenix was a massive stretch. Not-magneto being able to kill phoenix is entirely too fucking far.
>>143330930no your right about this magneto being xorn was fucking dumb and i wish it didnt happend thankfully the real zorn and xorn would show up later
>>143331010All the retcons were dumber and worse.
>>143330930Marvel should've never let Morrison go as far he did if they weren't committed to retiring Magneto in the first place
>>143330930>As an aside Magneto being able to kill phoenix was a massive stretch.It's more than a stretch. The Phoenix has enough power to beat Magneto to death with a crow bar using less that a fraction of a percentage of her telekinetic powers.
I like almost everything I've read of Grant Morrison EXCEPT this run.
>>143331306Marvel's a bunch of cowards. DC had Didio and he let Morrison do whatever he wanted and even let him have full control over characters for years. Even when DC fucked with his stuff he was able to pretend none of it happened.
>>143331306To be fair, with his track record, outright marching the normals into giant ovens is the kind of shit I can see Magneto during his villainous phases doing without a hint of irony
>>143332208Morrison isn't capable of writing nuanced characters like the X-Men.
