Re: 115

I agree that it was rather grim and upsetting to kill off so many characters, but it was something that was at least done respectfully and you could tell the ones that survived were affected by it. The series really brought up that Mutants are not safe-- especially the children. Everything before then (unless some big bad mutant was involved) we were just told that Humans were a danger to mutants, but this series really proved it.

It's even more upsetting that YXM seems to just have characters present to relate off of Ink.

It was respectful in retrospect, but at the time it felt really cheap and pointless. By the end of the arc it had turned into something great but until that happened it seemed like a grade-A wallbanger.

I think it did something else , not just emphasize that mutants aren't safe: it also establioshed a lot of hostiloe tension between the old guard and the new one. Most comics about teenaged successor superheros has the new guys REBELLING against the people who know better apparently on general principles, but new X-Men actually did give them a good reason to be: They don't trust the old X-Men to take care of things because you were supposed to protect us and you didn't.

They weren't portrayed as young dumb teenagers, either. Sure, they all had some growing up to do, but it was a real reflection of young adults with responsibilities and expectations, too. There was so much tension and perspective that-- forgive me for being lame here-- it felt real.

Change happened, characters learned/developed from it and everything moved on as it should.
