So the Original 5 CANNOT go back to their time. Beast's little stunt has created such a paradox that the O5 will remain in the present, permanently.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Nice work Bendis...

So Bendis ran what was once the most popular franchise in comics into the ground twice?

....

The time machine does not even work on the O5 anymore lol. The rest of the X-men can still use it, however.

I'm happy :) I'm liking the O5 and all-new so far and I just looove to read people bitching about them staying. Good job, Bendis!

well at least Cyclops isn't corrupt.

Obviously this isn't going to last forever but all in all... this ads to the face palm that is the X-Men in graphic novel form.

I think i'm gonna lay low on the anti-Bendis parade and just sit tight an' enjoy this ride for what it's worth. Lmfaoooooo.

Can the future X-men go back? If they stay-- I would find that interesting. Storm and Bp's daughter would be like Rachel for Jean and Cyclops. That'd be neat!

Though I like All-new X-men, I was pretty on the fence about this whole crossover (and the fact that I've skipped a few chapters reaffirms my opinion that it was probably longer than it needed to be), but I have to say, this issue was pretty satisfying.

@avenger85: out of curiosity, what was the "Epic Fail" you mentioned in the title of this thread?

I didn't read the issue, but if the original five X-men can't travel through the time stream anymore...why did Scott disappear when Teen Scott momentarily died? If these five original X-men are immune to the affects of time travel then current Scott shouldn't have poofed...right?

EDIT: Yeah, so I was hijacking a plane in GTA when something else hit me. If they can't travel through time anymore...how did the O5 jean come back in the first place? Or Magik taking Hank and Bobby into the future AND THEN BACK IN TIME one issue before!? One issue later and everything changes? -Blank stare.-

maybe it stared right after magik,iceman and beast came back.....idk

it is wierd

maybe they just can't travel back to their time

Battle Of The Atom and Beast's little stunt

I don't understand why people are hating on Bendis's X-men stuff....compared to the last 5 or so years of X-men this stuff that Bendis has been doing is like gold

So we get to have more good X-Men stories? How horrible.

@teerack:

not that good.

I really hope they give us an explanation for the Time/Space paradox other than "Whoopsies, it just doesn't work!"

Nice doing Hank, you screwed everything up, as expected.

Meh I give up trying to figure out how time travel works.

I read this OP was like....

"I'll take Refunds & Epic FAILS for $200 Alex?" >:-(...

Hey, it's fine if you find some enjoyment out of it, but you think it's gold?! Holy lord!

@rickbarry:

read my post again....I said compared to the last 5 or so years of X-men this stuff is like gold....the last heck I go as far as to say decade of X-men has been crap...this is so much better than that

Also I too lazy to explain this before but if you've been keeping up with the Hulk you'd know it's far far far from just what the X-Men have been doing that's got them stuck in the present. The breaking of time was tied into Amazing Spider-Man, Age of Ultron, New Avengers, Uncanny Avengers, Uncanny X-Men, All New X-Men, Wolverine and the X-Men, Indestructible Hulk, Thor God of Thunder, Captain Marvel, Dark Avengers, Fantastic Four, FF, Red She-Hulk, and probably more I'm forgetting. Basically since the start of Marvel now every book has had at least one time travel plot, and was explained that every time it was altered it broke more and more until we got to now.

@teerack: That's more time travel being done than what's needed. I'm sick of this time-travelling bull****

It's certainly more enjoyable then all that Utopia crap that we went threw with Fraction, but it's still not that good.

Decade wasn't all bad really. Plus 10yrs ago Morrison's New X-Men was just finishing up, X-Statix was still going and Whedon's Astonishing was getting ready to start, which were all great.

so what 2 series throughout the last decade that have been good....Astonishing X-men ended and other than the X-Force books the X-men books have pretty bad

Like you said the X-Force books, Kieron Gillen's run on Uncanny, Peter David's run on X-Factor.

Gillen's UXM run was nothing...he did absolutely nothing besides AVX tie ins....besides having an X in the title X-Factor was hardly an X-men book...it had little to no ties to the X-Verse at all

I rather liked Gillen's run. He created a new type of villain that I wish would pop up again in Unit, breathed new life into certain members of his team (Colossus, Namor, Magik and Danger) and wrote the only readable AvX material that matters in my opinion. Toss in his solid Tie-ins with Fear itself and his revamped Sinister? I think he showed a great deal more vision and originality than you're giving him credit for, man.
