Immortal X-Men #1 and X-Men: Red #1
Apr. 8th, 2022 07:53 pmSometimes I wonder if Charles Xavier is ever tempted to get completely hammered, stand up in the middle of the Green Lagoon and yell 'I made you an island with nacho trees, unlimited booze and oh, yes, immortality! WHAT ELSE DO YOU PEOPLE EVEN WANT? CAN YOU NOT BE HAPPY FOR TEN FUCKING MINUTES???' and then walk into the sea.
... but of course he would not do that, and that's why he's still on the Quiet Council instead of off joining Orchis or sulking in a castle on Mars. Because Moira thinks mutation is a problem to be solved and Magneto is prone to thinking it's a weapon to fight with but Charles thinks that it's a gift, and gifts should be shared (much like the open bar, the nacho tree and immortality.) However flawed and doomed Krakoa might be in the end, I don't expect he'll do less than go down with the ship.
