Hope Appreciation

[Selphy]

What does that even mean? If you want to write Cable, write Cable. Selphy asked for Hope and I gave my answer.

For sure, but I think PwrdOff is saying that if you're going to write Hope like Cable, why not just write Cable instead? Because what defining features does Hope have outside of being a female Cable I guess. I can't say much because I haven't read anything about Hope prior to UXM and this event but she has sparked my interest.

They have a similar personality because their backgrounds are somewhat similar, plus Cable's the only person Hope's ever talked to for most of her life, and it's natural for a child to try and emulate the parent's behavior. That said, having a similar personality doesn't make them copies of each other, since they have things that differ too - powers, the connection to the Phoenix, their personal relationship with other X-men, not to mention that Hope is still a fresh character and can go in a complete different direction than Cable.

The fact that a writer wants to write a character should be reason enough for him/her to exist, it shouldn't be justified in relation to other characters. But even if all there was to Hope were being Cable in a skirt, the fact that Cable has done so much already for me is enough to put him on the shelf and let somebody else have storylines, even if they could have gone to Cable. To put it simply, he's done enough already. I love Cable a lot but the Second Coming's death was a good ending for the character and a great passing of the torch for Hope. The fact that I want the missions statement of Hope's new book to be the same as Cable's old ones is just part of that, since I want her to become the newest incarnation of Cable, but adding her own personal spin to it, just like any other legacy character.

Okay then, I see where you're getting at. We'll just have to wait and see what Marvel plans to do with Hope I guess.

i was randomlly leveling up Cable in SHSO and was surprised Hope made her video game debut in his second emote:



And he's still a good dad.

[Sanji]

That's so cute!

[Venom Melendez]

Hope is on one of the A+X covers.

I hate Uncanny Avengers so no, I wouldn't want her there!

How can you hate it if it hasn't come out yet? Plus, they said there will be more members, so i wouldn't be surprised if she joined.

[Selphy]

Mockingbird is on there but I think that Wacker said she'd be having less face time. So even though Hope is on there, which is cool, it doesn't mean much yet.

I don't like anybody in the cast except for Rogue, and I absolutely hate Remender's writing. The solicits alone make me want to stay as far from it as possible.

I hope she stays out of the Avengers and the X-men like her dad.

Hope is already an Avenger, according to Tony Stark.

According to Tony Stark, blowing up the Phoenix was a good idea.

It wasn't Wacker and they weren't talking about A+X, so it's not relevant to this mini. In any case, it's clear she survives.

According to Tony Stark, blowing up the Phoenix was a good idea.

He also thought shooting Hulk into space was a good idea.

OMG!!!! :)


Now I need this game.

It's the only thing that keeps me reading this crappy event. One last Gillen's Hope. :/

[Sanji]

The only time Hope will ever be in character in this event.

[Stopu]

At least they warned us that they were about to assassinate the character when she appeared wearing pink.
