The Phoenix Five Stand Triumphant In Kubert "AvX" Variant

Stolen :)

me too. :D

A couple things:

How did the Phoenix restore Colossus' hair? I assume he has the Juggernaut powers under control?
Namor is so going to kick Ben Grimm's ass.

[Piston]

I wonder if the secret of the X-men is that they are under some kind of mind control by the Phoenix 5. Or if even both the X-men and Avengers aren't under some kind of influence designed to keep the conflict going and to justify whatever it is the P5 plan on doing going forward? Maybe the P5 don't even need mind control, maybe they just have some sort of "influence" on mutants, like what Hope has with the lights?

[Kurolegacy]

There are still 5 Lights with Kenji dead, he doesn't matter.
Based on what Scott said, the Phoenix rejected Hope too, and that's because the Avengers did something.

No Scott says that she doesn't deserve it. The Phoenix clearly hasn't rejected Hope since she even said that it calls to her.

Love the cover. I think this relates to what the solicitations indicated regarding the Avengers being thrown in jail. I also think that this cover further confirms that the X-men will probably be the big losers in AvX. They're becoming so dominant now and usually in the Marvel universe, the underdog is the one that comes out on top in the end. While I don't think it's a given, seeing as how Civil War ended with a twist. I think there's a greater than 50/50 chance that the X-men will be the losers in the end. I think we'll probably learn more as Comic Con reveals the comics that come after AvX.

[Piston]

What I want to know is, now that the X-men have pissed off various world governments and, assuming that the Phoenix 5 go crazy, how do they recover from this? Is this another situation where they become not only hated and feared but hunted, like the post Onslaught Operation Zero Tolerance situation? I hope not because that's been done and done and done. Kind of seems like its time for something new, like the X-men being the world's best heros, but I dunno how we get there from this.

At this point (and after his actions during the long build-up to this point), it's questionable whether Cyclops is "worthy" enough to lift Mjolnir.

Anybody with Odin power levels can lift the Mjolnir. Tiwaz and Crom could lift the Mjolnir.

Holy Sh!#!!!

Since their inception, Government "officials" have loathed the mutant community...regardless of how many times they put their lives on the line to save an inoccent, or town, or city, or planet.

I know that Scott's final speech after Hope left with Wanda was intended to sound CRAZY and dripping with paranoia, but I agree.
I don't care if it came from a place of power-driven-insanity --- its STILL ACCURATE.
No matter what they do, no matter how many rules they follow, or how often they tow the line, or comply with prejudice driven men and women in power, no matter what GOOD the mutant community does --- they are still hated.

Stupid dumbs.

Well, Cyclops looks pretty badass in this, but Colossus is ruining the cool factor with his skirt.

Leave his skirt alone!

I'm betting Cyclops will be driven mad with power, ultimately be stopped by many of his peers & the Avengers, and then say something to the effect of "They took it all away from us". Scott is totally going to be the new Magneto post AvX. Obviously some characters and fans will agree.

I've said for awhile now that I'm betting there will be some sort of X-Men: Brotherhood book post AvX.

At this rate, I wouldn't blame him.

It would be a good idea. Schism really didn't go far enough to push the ideological divide.

Who do you think would join him?

[Home made ectoplasm]

This proves the X Men are the good guys and Thor is no longer worthy.
