X-Men Question

Has anyone else heard about the nonsense going on with Hope!?

Okay I'm going to keep this first paragraph civil even though I think I just almost gave myself a rage heart attack. So now Hope is with foster parents so she can have a "normal" life. All I've been able to gather about then is they watch a crap load of TV and smile too much. This very description makes my soul burn with the fiery rage of the Dark Phoenix and I blame this all on the Avengers.Okay the next paragraph is going to be pure fangirl rage explaining why I hate this so much so feel free to skip it.

Where the hell do they get off putting Hope in a foster home?! She's almost a damn adult at the very least she can get herself emancipated rather than putting up with this bullshit! How the hell did they find her a foster home so easily? Why do they have to be such horribly averagely annoying people that it feels like an insult to Nathan?! I mean how dare they even vaguely compare themselves to Cable! And again why does Hope even put up with this!? After having Cable for a father how can she even stomach this? And why would she want to?! Look Hope it doesn't matter what you do, YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A NORMAL LIFE! You are a mutant and not just any mutant! The friggin chosen one who is supposed to bring mutants back from extinction! What are all the new mutants doing while you live your "normal life"? Being killed by their powers so that you can listen to One Direction and watch Glee!?

Even though i could go on for days about this I should probably stop before I black out. What do you think about this? Is my rage totally irrational (yes)? As I wait for your answer I'm just going to sit here and stare at Nate's awesome bike and hope it takes the edge off.

Yeah, it kinda pisses me off, but it's not like Marvel hasn't tried this pissy ass bullshit before (I'm in a bad mood today, so swearing is just gonna happen). It makes me even more angry with it that they spend all of this time, energy, and waste of already established and clearly good characters to make her seem AMAZING, and they pull shit like this. COME ON MARVEL!!!! I am so sick of this to the point where I just want to drop it all, but (from what I've read, because I haven't had these experiences myself) like a drug. You have a bad trip, want to leave it alone so it doesn't happen again, but are so damn addicted that you can't help but do it again and again, further hurting yourself. What makes me even more angry (if that's possible) is that they always try to follow this stuff up with tender moment crap, in this case between Hope and Cable and then make something powerful happen. This trend IS old, not getting there. It is there. It needs to stop so these comics can be ENJOYED again. Even most men will admit to enjoying the occasional tender moment, but it doesn't always need to be ruined by something, just like how something big doesn't always have to be heartfelt. Sometimes it just happens.

End of off topic rant...which I feel like should have been posted in the forum...damn.

This bullshit is obviously so Hope won"t grow up hating humanS?

I totally understand the swearing (if you didn’t notice). This news put me in an awful mood. It just feels like it cheapens Nate and Hope’s relationship because it seems like a cheap way to make us feel bad for them. Also the fact that it’s totally out of left field considering I don’t really remember any other mutants in the same situation ending up in a foster home and it just doesn’t seem like something Hope would do. I mean I’m all for her developing a better personality but if I remember correctly didn’t she not attend classes on Utopia because she thought they were pointless? Why would she suddenly change her mind? But I guess I can’t complain about this specifically too much because most mutants are getting character raped in the comics right now. At least every now and then we can find a good moment but it’s still hard to sift through all the crap for it. Maybe they’re trying to boost sales. By pissing us off they bring more attention to the comics and make people care about the characters. Then they give them a good writer with good stories and everyone flocks to the comic stores gleefully spending obscene amounts of money! At least that’s what I’m going to hope is going on. Please God let that be what’s going on.

@ Fassmckee I really wouldn’t blame Hope at this point for hating humans. Humans tried to kill her when she was born, it was a mutant hating human built robot that caused the “death” of her dad and other team members, and humans are the reason she can’t be with her dad right now. Goodness I’m even kind of starting to hate humans now. Time to break out the “Magneto was Right” shirts and start a revolution!
