Genuinely one of the most egregious and frustrating character assassinations I've ever seen in one of these things. I know on some level all of these stories are dependent on who is behind the typewriter so its impossible to say what a character actually would or wouldn't do but its just such a fucking infuriatingly simplistic view not just of the mutant civil rights allegory but also of how a character like magneto would perceive their struggle. Haven't finished X-men 97 yet but the plot point with what happens to Storm and his response feels like a direct fucking response to that scene in Last Stand TBH.
Yeah, that was a great moment. Rest of the series is just as good, 97 is just a great show. I'm sure there are flaws here and there that just aren't coming to mind but it's shockingly good for recent Marvel content made by Disney.
Real shame about the show runner, I'm assuming s2 won't happen or will be worse.
