So I just Read the New X-men Legacy 262 and I have to say, it is shocking how hypocritical Wolverine has become. Everyone at Westchester for that matter seems to have amnesia about how things have come to pass. When Hope first arrived at Utopia, Cyclops shielded her like a fragile piece of glass, constantly tell her not to get involved in anything and keeping her in the background. He even temporarily removed Rogue from the roster and reprimanded her for allowing Hope to get involved with the fight with Bastion (even then Hope forced Rogues hand). Afterwards, Hope demanded her own team and later in a brilliant display of power let Cyclops know she can do whatever she wants. Yet if you listen to the conventional wisdom, Cyclops is the one who is forcing Hope and her team to become soldiers, as if she and her team have no free will of their own. Wolverine's words were quite ironic "All he talks about is how we are Targets, How we gotta be ready for war and what we're doing here is reckless and stupid"
Umm.. Yea Pretty much Wolvie.. That sounds about right lol. How many times since Hope has arrived has both Westchester and Utopia been attacked? Hell, how many times were they attacked BEFORE Hope arrived. I mean seriously am I not understanding something? When did he and the rest of the squad become so incredibly Naive? I especially love the line where Wolverine says "This aint a classroom its a battlefield, your letting your personal feelings compromise the mission" umm... really? After whining about how Cyclops is too militaristic in his thinking you say that?? It's getting to the point where I am beginning to loathe Wolverines character. It's almost as if he is having some type of nervous breakdown. Problem is there doesn't seem to be anyone defending Cyclops actual position. He has become scapegoat #1 The Schism serious wouldn't be so difficult to swallow if everything wasn't so one-sided.
