On these points. Time travel is very X-men (and Marvel), in the X-men alone there are 3 time traveled characters, 1 from another dimension, and 3 of them are technically children of Jean and Scott. Time travel when done right is good and a great story mechanic, in this instance I thought that was done well.
Ultimate human and mutant extinction isn't a good villain? Sentinels are X-men's worst fear because they highlight the fear and persecution that humans feaal in a totally destructive way, one that can cause utter devistation.
Hmm, pie.
