"It's like if somebody gave you an atomic bomb for your birthday." Nice. It sounds like mutation.

Poor Tempo.

Oh my!

Here we see another complicated romantic entanglement because of "Age of X," the relationship between Storm and Namor. I imagine the fall out of their romance in "Age of X" might have some interesting effects, especially since Storm's marriage has hit a bit of rocky point with her husband off on his own.

Yes, and three years of living as a another man's lover is not going to make that any easier. There is a brute force solution that's put forward to that problem in #248. Whether or not it will hold is anybody's guess.

Brute force solution??? What does that mean? Is there going to be some trial by combat for Storm?

I hope they aren't going to wiener out and not address this!

The brute force solution is Emma's mind-wipe.

So Carey claims Chamber was on the island when it all went down. Interesting. I'd love to see a little side story of him arriving to Utopia because he heard about Jubilee's transformation and he wants to be there for her, however shortly after arriving the change occurs. They seemed close in their scene in AOX, so it'd fit the bill.

He was probably bringing Stacy X's ashes to Utopia, which is how she was resurrected for Joe Casey's new series (in my dream).

disappointed that carey is mind-wiping storm and namor. i don't see that as something either character would want to do, but OK. carey confirms that rachel is revenant.

**Skaddix** · 05-09-2011, 02:37 PM

Legion should be put down like a dog, its not like this is the first time he has done something like this.

As for mindwiping I don't think Carey knows storm to well if he thinks she would ever submit to get mindwiped by Frost.

This would also be a fantastic solution!

On the Namor/Storm front, it does seem like they will be mind-wiped.

Each time he's only brought mutantkind together.

whatever. storm got wrecked at how happy she was in age of x, so she need to forget it to continue living the lie of her current marriage. she is weak.

**Seresecros** · 05-09-2011, 02:39 PM

Chamber arrived during The Darkstar Wars. He's been around ever since. Mike Carey respects ALL continuity! <3

Is Tempo the first character Mike Carey has actually killed?

Yes, this is the weakest, most cowardly, most compromising, thing Storm has ever done. It's basically an admission that they destroyed her character.

I was actually just asking myself that question. He couldn't worm his way out of this one.
