I don't think Jean's involved.

Lol

Sorry, Elijah. I'm not sure I would've owned up to that.

WHY ARE MOMMY AND DADDY FIGHTING?

we also have to take into account the mystery person Emma was talking with at the end of Joss' first arc and how they will play into this...

Any connection between Agent Brand's tattoo "Grace" and Emma Grace Frost? Not to mention, "Anna" has been revealed to be Rogue's real name. It's a stretch.

when did we find out that Emma's middle name was Grace?

Hey guys! Polaris has green hair so they must be sisters! That means she's Magneto's gay daughter who's shagged Emma Frost and Rouge!

Which is to say: I think you're stretching, gents.

No, clearly Agent Whatshername is Viper's baby sis.

Anyway, scrounged up #7 and #8 just yesterday. I liked these two issues a whole lot more than #4-6, thank Jebus. I'll stick around till #12 at least, see if I keep going after that.

I think the "sentient Danger Room" thing is a bit dumb, so hopefully it's an outside force controlling it. Perhaps not, say, Emma's evil "White Queen" persona, separated from her "Good White Witch" one, but who knows? She could've just turned bloody diamond, there, and then the psychic EMP wouldn't have knocked her flat.

It could also be the old Master Mold leaking its way into the X-Men's computer system. But that doesn't explain Evil Undead Wing (unless that's just a computer-generated illusion).

Still liking Cassaday's art. Thanks to him and Joss, Cyclops is a badass, for once.

I took "evil undead wing" as being CGI mind games ala the DANGER ROOM.

The mystery person Emma is talking to sounds a LOT like, well, Emma. "Lamb?" Is it likely that Emma is talking to her White Queen persona?
