Except it doesnt. The Sons of the Serpent do what they have done for over three decades. And what the book is "villifiying" is their methods and not their reason for killing those innocent people.

That can easily be misunderstood as vilifying their reasoning, as many people have done. That's a very sketchy way to present an issue.

And far from being the last word on it. It happened very late in the Issue with Steve Rogers stepping in and pretty obviously not being okay with what Sam is doing. Which to me showed pretty clearly that its not just going to be a black and white view on this topic.

It's too early to tell exactly what's going on with Steve. I'll check out issue two eventually, but I'm not holding my breath in expectation for improvements. For all we know, Sam could end up convincing Steve to side with him.



But that's something we can't tell until the next issue.

Spider-Man issue 2 was fun.
Great to see Prowler on the comics again and kick it with Peter like a buddy cop film.
Still waiting for that All-new All-different X-men. looks fun.

Young Apocalypse?!?! This requires some damn explaining. And I still have no idea who the other two are. And why does Angel have flaming wings? Please don't say it s a Phoenix thing.

Genesis is from one of the recent X-force series, where Logan's group killed one of them, but since Fantomex felt guilty about it, he cloned him and raised him in a Clark Kent like simulation and taught him to be good. Spent most of his time recently at Logan's school.

Angel's wings are from the Black Vortexx crossover with the Guardians of the Galaxy, where he, Beast (present one, not the young one), and Gamora got upgraded by said Black Vortexx, but became ego maniacs. Don't know the exact details, but Angel kept his upgrade. Also Beast proved to be a hypocritical ass (more so than usual), because when he gained cosmic power his first thought was to be a cosmic asshole, while Cyclops kept it together until the end of Avengers vs. X-men (never letting that go).

Oya is a recent-ish X-kid, and attended Logan's school after the split between X-men. Dated Quentin Quire (Lord knows why), and I think is good friends with the Brood kid and definitely gets along with Genesis, to my understanding.
