Poll Question: AVENGERS VS. X-MEN - Whose Side Are You On NOW?

avengers

So the X-Men get a ridiculous and unneeded power up that makes no sense and now people take their side? El oh el.

this event is actually growing on me more and more
and i chose avengers because the x-men are still reckless and now they are possessed!

I went Avengers again, and where this is going reminds slightly of the situation from the Justice League three part starter. The world lays down it's arms for Superman to protect them, and then an outside force makes them realize without Supes, they can't protect themselves. The event has grown on me as well, I am curious how this will play out, and what the ramifications (if there are any) will be.

I was with the X-Men from the beginning and I will be with them to the end, X-Men is my favorite comic book since always.

"Who cares? This event sucks hard"

lol

yeah i pretty much agree but i think the main Round 5 book has been the best so far. I think Hickman is currently on the reins.

X-Men all day! And I'll take that bet against ANY comic super-group! All day son!

Skot888, yup, Jean's a comin' home, so it's whatever.

KalElOdinson, umadbro?

Cyclops (along with Daredevil) is a hero completely entitled to be pissed.

Muckle - This event sucked? It's not over, and if u don't like it..don't read it.

X-Douches? - All sad cause the Avengers are winning everywhere else except this series, it's a comic book dude, how bout you be a little more pissed, they could all die and we'd still have to wake up and go on with our real life responsibilities, chill the eff out.

I love Marvel's big event's, everyone else is crazy

X-Men! ...Always Have Been, Always Will Be...

The next series could be the X-Men get bloodlust and start eating children... and I would still root for them to kill and devour every child in the MU...

@Mentok, Myth, Bark4Soul --- sometimes I think I'm the only one not jumping on the Avengers bandwagon, so it's cool to see other folks here who are on my wavelength, more or less.

Just seems to me that when Ultron comes blowing up shit or Thanos is trying to kill off everybody.... yeah, THOSE are things the Avengers should be trying to stop. But being kinda jealous-acting and fighting because "Umm.... we don't know what the consequences of the X-Men doing all this nice stuff will be..." well, that's not an Ultron-level cause for battle. Nor was the assumption that Phoenix was gonna blow everything up any more warranted. Haven't they ever heard of Rachel Grey? Hell, Jean Grey has been around a few times and she never blew up the damned planet. Why are they saying it's inevitable when on SEVERAL occasions it never even came close to happening?


@BlindLemonShemp --- damn, man. That would be one hell of a story twist. Might be pretty good.

Wolverine? Level headed?

You mean the guy who was mad at Cyclops for telling the one girl to defend herself using deadly force? The same guy who has killed people at the drop of a dime.... the same guy who took Shadowcat and Armor and Jubilee under his arm --- and taught them how to be killers?

Of do you mean Wolverine --- the guy who forgot that the X-men were 15 and 16 going up against Magneto and other life-threatening situations.... yet somehow thinks that kids should be left out of the struggle cuz they "aren't ready."

Or could it be Wolverine, who went against everyone from Cyclops to Captain America because he was soooo hell-bent on killing Hope --- getting into fights with everyone just so he could kill Hope..... only to COMPLETELY change his mind right when she offered him a few warm beers.

That Wolverine?

x-men all day everyday

I was with X-Men simply because they had the most experience with them.

But having read the way Cyclops has been portrayed, gotta say The Avengers seem to be the heroes of the piece.

@ Daken - I know, Colossus is awesome and they've turned him into some freak. Juggaolusnix. Fail.

@Bark4Soul I said this event SUCKS NOT SUCKED and i'm not reading this pile of crap :)

Avengers! I have a feeling they might kill off cyclops by the end of this event

Wow, I can't believe that so many people are on the x-men's side?! I understand that they have been persecuted and confined to utopia... and had their numbers bottomed out to a whopping 200 but they should have learned from what happened to Jean Grey... Further more the phoenix has destroyed countless worlds on its way to earth so that would be like taking blood money, the price is too high and I believe that if it was the MUTANT RACE and earth that was wiped out while the phoenix was on it's way to another world to find a host and bring that world up to another level of harmony(and by some stroke of luck scott summers colossus and namor were off world when it happened)they would want to destroy it even if it's intentions are pure for the world it lets live.
So lets say that the avengers lose and the x-men succeed... I doubt that Namor, Magik and Emma Frost will give up that power very easily to hope.

Also Rachael's biggest argument is that SHE was able to control the phoenix force longer than anyone, I believe that is not a valid argument because she was only channeling the power from afar. In this story the phoenix is coming to earth to emerge with Hope Summers completely.

Last of all, I believe that a big theme in these comics is free will... no one person should be able to shape the world... or say no more Avengers. Who are the X-men to throw the avengers in jail for fighting for their freedom? Even if they are doing this for the greater good good (and I dont think Namor and Magik are... they are both cruel and a little evil) they could have gone about it differently. Dont get me wrong, so could the avengers but the president himself put steve rogers in charge to protect america anyway he sees fit... who are the x-men to undermine his authority? they should have packed up and moved another country or something.
