X-Men was largely about oppression and I'm dreading the inevitable both-sidesing that comes with Disney owning the IP. (hexbear.net)

I know it's capeshit, but X-Men was different. It deliberately explored oppression and othering. It's one of the only casts that features an explicit survivor of the Holocaust.

I just feel bad about this acquisition, but I'm hopeful the comics will continue their momentum in exploring systemic issues with mutants after Krakoa.

It's pretty much the only capeshit I like. My hope is that they at least do a better job with them than Fox.

That's my hope. I liked Logan, but I'd want to see a story more about mutants in general.
