  Quite frankly, it wouldn&apos;t have mattered how it ended <i>when it did</i> . At the end of the day, the Krakoan era ended far too early. There was so much more to explore.

  The initial vibes of krakoa were so culty and ominous that it really infected everything it dealt with. I was excited by these implications when it came to Professor X and the quiet council, not trusting their intentions was fun. But every single hero followed suit to the letter from the beginning when I was waiting for someone, anyone to break ranks and question if krakoa was being guided by good intentions. No one felt like independent characters just extensions of krakoa, cyclops was threatening the fantastic four, the X-men were killing themselves in the blind faith that they would always be resurrected. <br><br>It desperately needed some pov characters who were hesitant to adapt to krakoa and either came around eventually or pushed further into the rot at the core of it. Nobody pushed back against Xavier and magneto (and Moira’s) visions for the authority of the quiet council. <br><br>When the ultimate X-Men were rebuilding they were so careful about shaping who they would be and how they would live, people had doubts, questions, and were reassured or they course corrected and I really wish there was more of that baked into krakoa.

  Something I thought was really interesting about Sins of Sinister was Essex only a had a face-turn when he won and got everything he ever wanted which is exactly what happened in the Age of Apocalypse timeline. &nbsp;This recurring beat makes Mr. Sinister more interesting to me.

  To me, eras should last MUCH longer than they do.<br>I&apos;m still stuck in the Mutant Academy era, with all different squads.<br>That should have lasted at least 6 years.

  Krakoa got me into Xmen books. I loved it mainly for collaboration and how thought out it felt. I never expected it to last forever but the new status quo feels too unplanned and rushed. It feels closer to when they had relaunched X-men right before Krakoa.

  The irony of the Krakoan era is that, on a meta level, it became what it was trying to avoid. Hickman mentioned he wanted the reboot to be additive and everyone kept pitching him the same “mutants are feared and hunted” stories. Krakoa was a shift in the status quo, and made <b>mutants</b> (not the X-Men) into a faction like Wakanda or Atlantis.<br><br>Not long after he left, much like Moira experienced, the mutants lost and the destructive status quo came back. It’s like editorial missed the theme of their own story

  I&apos;m still going through Morrison&apos;s New X-Men run (loving it!), but excited to get to the krakoa era as well. Great video!
