    I don’t know if this community is dead or not, but I’m looking for help identifying some stuff from this episode.

    Refer to this image:

    1. This is the formation of the X-Men. The X-Men logo, with icons of Prof. X and Magneto.
    2. This is the cloning of Jean Grey / Madeline Pryor.
    3. I know it’s sort of hard to see in the screen shot, but this is a rectangle with a Cyclops icon, a Jean Grey icon, and a baby’s pacifier. I think it’s Cable’s birthday, but it could also be spoiler-y things that I don’t really care about.
    4. This is a row of icons with one for each original member of the X-Men. Cyclops, Jean Grey, Ice Man (snowflake), Angel (halo), and Beast (paw print).
    5. This is that same Beast paw print in a “card” as prominent as the X-Men logo. Why?
    6. I don’t know what this logo is, but it shows up in the background at Sunspot’s mom’s fundraiser. Anyone recognize it?
    7. Is this “The Loom” from Loki season 2, or the Axis of Time, or the Nexus of All Realities? Or is this just the fixed point in time occupied by Genosha?

      Man I didn’t even think to look at that shot twice. Unfortunately I’m not very familiar with X-men lore so can’t really parse much from the image. This community is pretty small and not very active so I don’t know if you’ll find much help here. Maybe try the X-men community over on reddit? They’re pretty active over there.

        Thanks anyway!

        I’m not going back to Reddit, you can’t make me. I’d rather just … not know.

          Lol, I still use reddit but rarely post there, prefer the smaller communities here. The X-men subreddit is pretty nice though, I like reading their discussions when new episodes drop.

      Maybe, a possible future storyline spoiler >!Dark Beast!<. They appear to be running through a lot of storylines faster than I thought they would. I am here for it. I hope we get to Krakoa.

      Edit: I’m not sure why it has a 1 when it has 5 before I post it.
