“Messiah Complex” Steals from “Ult. X-Men”
Let me preface this post by saying that I didn’t read Messiah Complex. I’m a trade guy and will read it once it’s been collected. How
So “Messiah Complex” ends with Xavier dying or “presumed dead” and then Scott Summers (Cyclops) disbanding the X-men. Since I’ve not read it, I’m not about to judge the book for its storytelling abilities. How
In “Ultimate X-men” Xavier is presumed dead so Cyclops takes over the “X-men” and the first thing he does is disband them!
Do the editorial offices at Marvel not communicate with each other? Mike Carey is the supposed mastermind behind “Messiah Complex” and he writes a book set in the Ultimate Universe. How did he not know that this was already being done? Are writers having such a hard time thinking of x-men ideas that they are now stealing “616” stories from the “ultimate” universe?
