Emma was the one who revealed the truth about Moira to Mystique and Destiny. She did it because she was furious that Charles and Magneto hadn't told her the truth about Moira from the beginning —a pretty weak excuse for wanting to kill Moira— and because she considered Moira's reset powers a threat to Krakoa's existence.

But here's the ridiculous part: after giving Mystique and Destiny that information, Emma refuses to help them with their plan to depower Moira and subsequently kill her. Her excuse was that she “doesn't take sides.”

Seriously? Giving crucial information to Mystique and Destiny, knowing full well that they would want to kill Moira, isn't taking a side?

And the consequences were enormous.

Moira feels betrayed by Krakoa, and subsequently develops terminal cancer because of Krakoa. From that point on, she dedicates herself to destroying the mutant nation.

Which she eventually succeeds in doing.

All of this because Emma was too proud to ally herself with Charles and Magneto, but too cowardly to fully ally herself with Mystique and Destiny.

She literally threw the stone and hid her hand.

IMO, she's one of the biggest culprits behind the fall of Krakoa. She might even be the biggest culprit.

Unfortunately, mine is Dante Pertuz AKA Inferno. An Inhuman that Marvel completely forgot about. 🇨🇴

I was rereading Kieron Gillen's Eternals, and there's a page showing the original 100 Eternals and their current locations.

In The Exclusion, which serves as a prison for the Eternals, we see a number of prisoners classified as "Excluded," each identified by a letter.

Later, we learn that Uranos, Thanos' grandfather, is imprisoned there, so he is presumably "Excluded U." Likewise, Thanos' parents are also imprisoned there: A'Lars as "Excluded A" and Sui-San as "Excluded S." Thanos' brother Eros was also imprisoned there as "Excluded E." And as one final example, Sprite was imprisoned in The Exclusion as "Excluded SP."

So it seems that the letters used to identify each prisoner correspond to the first letter of their name.

If that's the case, I think this could mean that "Excluded H" is Hyperion—who, as we know, is an Eternal in other universes.

Daemon fought two wars and technically won both of them. But didn't he have major advantages, and even plot armor, in both conflicts? And despite those advantages, didn't it still take him an awfully long time to win?

First, the War for the Stepstones. Let's look at the forces involved.

Daemon's most obvious advantage was that he had at least one dragon on his side (Caraxes), while the Triarchy had none. It's even possible—though not confirmed—that he also had the support of Meleys and Vhagar.

We know that Daemon and Corlys fought while outnumbered, so let's assume they were inferior in both manpower and ships. However, they also seem to have had a clear qualitative advantage. The Triarchy's forces were largely made up of pirates, corsairs, and sellswords, since Myr, Lys, and Tyrosh generally don't fight their own wars. Daemon, meanwhile, commanded a Westerosi army with standardized training.

Wasn't the Velaryon fleet also considered the greatest navy in the world? Daemon and Corlys almost certainly had better ships and more experienced sailors than the Triarchy. On top of that, Daemon enjoyed financial support from House Velaryon as well as from Viserys.

Despite all of these advantages, it still took Daemon three years to conquer most of the islands. He never managed to take the smaller islands, and the war only ended because he eventually grew bored and abandoned the Stepstones, allowing the Triarchy to reclaim them. I'm not even sure we can really say he won that war.

Then there's the Dance of the Dragons. For almost the entire war, the Blacks enjoyed numerical superiority in both dragons and manpower, yet it still took them around three years to win. They only emerged victorious after Daemon had died, and they didn't even secure victory on the battlefield—it ultimately came through poison.

At the beginning of the Dance, if you count only dragons actually capable of fighting, each side effectively had four. The Greens had Vhagar, of course, but Meleys and Caraxes were arguably stronger than Sunfyre, Dreamfyre, or Tessarion. Later, the Blacks gained Vermithor, Silverwing, Seasmoke, and Sheepstealer, giving them overwhelming dragon superiority.

The houses supporting the Blacks were willing to fight to the death for Rhaenyra, while many of the Green supporters either collapsed quickly (like the Lannisters) or barely contributed at all (like the Baratheons). As a result, Daemon consistently had more troops in the field than the Greens.

The Blacks ultimately won only after Daemon died—though, to be fair, he took the Greens' most dangerous dragon down with him—and only because Aegon was poisoned. You could almost argue that the ending came down to plot armor.

I don't know. I love the character, especially his role as a shadowy schemer, but I feel he's overrated when it comes to his war skills. I just feel that a truly exceptional commander would have won both of these wars much faster and with far less bloodshed.

What do you think?

The community often points out that what we read in Fire & Blood is unreliable, and I agree with that. However, most people seem to argue that the history presented in Fire & Blood is biased in favor of the Greens, which doesn't really make sense to me considering that the Blacks ultimately won.

Also, if Fire & Blood is supposedly biased in favor of the Greens, as some claim, it certainly doesn't go out of its way to hide the Greens' negative actions and flaws.

In Uncanny Avengers, Rick Remender introduced the idea that "Apocalypse" is actually a title bestowed by the Celestials. Whenever they visit a planet and want to trigger an evolutionary event, they implant a Death Seed into a race, creating its Apocalypse.

Under this concept, the mutant En Sabah Nur is actually the eighth Apocalypse. Before him, other races—including humans, the Eternals/Deviants, and even Neanderthals—had their own Apocalypses. So far, the only one we've learned the name of is Kelby Tak, who served as the Apocalypse of the Eternals and Deviants.

Do you like this idea? I think it could be a great opportunity to introduce a powerful villain from Marvel's distant past.

By the end of Imperial, Jonathan Hickman set up a really interesting premise to bring the Inhumans back: they want to conquer the Kree Empire.

I don't understand why Marvel hasn't done anything with this. A story about a galactic war of conquest could be far more interesting than most of what Marvel has been publishing lately with the Guardians of the Galaxy or Nova. Honestly, Marvel's cosmic side has been seriously underused in recent years.

Just imagine the political intrigue this could create. Or the fights—you could bring Kree-related characters into a conflict against the Inhumans. Imagine Captain Marvel vs. Black Bolt. Or Phyla-Vell vs. Medusa. Or Genis-Vell vs. Black Bolt...

A story like this deserves a chance.

Yesterday I made a post about Jason's appearance in canon, sharing my thoughts on his eye color and white streak. But I completely forgot about the tattoo he had in the Webtoon! Would you like Jason to have this tattoo in the main continuity?

Personally, the only thing I don't like is that the tattoo looks Māori-inspired. If it were, for example, Arabic-inspired instead, I wouldn't mind. In the Webtoon, it's explained that the tattoo is a kind of resurrection mark Jason gained after being revived in the Lazarus Pit.

Also, it should be explained that whenever he appears with completely black hair and blue or brown eyes, it's because he dyes his hair and wears contact lenses to avoid drawing too much attention to himself.

The more I see in recent comics and fan art featuring Jason and Rose Wilson together, the more I like the couple. But then I remember that Rose first flirted with—and even kissed—Tim, and that a Nightwing comic (Or was it in Grayson's comic?) revealed Dick trained her and that she also flirted with him. That completely kills the appeal of JayRose for me.

Jason's romantic history is already full of women who either tried to get with one of his brothers/father, or were involved with them before Jason: Talia al Ghul (Bruce), Barbara Gordon (Dick), Supergirl (Dick), Starfire (Dick), Rose (Dick/Tim), etc.

Here are a few ideas for potential love interests I'd like to see for Jason. My only criteria are that they haven't been romantically involved with Batman or any of the former Robins, and that they're relatively street-level characters. I've always found relationships between a normal human and an extremely powerful metahuman (like Jason and Artemis of Bana-Mighdall) to be strange and hard to believe.

• Looker (Emily Briggs): A vampire who could naturally connect Jason to the supernatural side of the DC Universe, something many fans have wanted for years.

• Red Canary (Sienna Song): She's a relatively new character, but I've really liked what little we've seen of her. Pairing her with Jason could also create some fun interactions with Black Canary and Green Arrow.

• Lady Blackhawk (Zinda Blake): A WWII pilot displaced through time. Tough, loves guns, and would probably enjoy getting into bar fights. She honestly feels like a perfect match for Jason.

• Onyx Adams: She grew up surrounded by criminal violence and became an exceptionally talented street fighter, eventually catching the League of Assassins' attention. She worked with the al Ghuls before later siding with Batman. Given her background, I think she'd have great chemistry with Jason, especially in stories involving street crime or the al Ghul family.

• Nyssa Raatko (al Ghul): Talia's older sister. Jason and Talia always felt weird because of her history with Bruce. Nyssa doesn't have that baggage, and she's arguably an even better manipulator than Talia. It would obviously be a very toxic relationship, but it could work well in a League of Assassins storyline.

• Kassidy Savage: Vandal Savage's daughter and an FBI agent. She could be a great love interest in a story where Jason takes on Vandal Savage. Vandal's immortality has ties to the Lazarus Pits, so a story about Jason finally investigating his own resurrection could naturally involve Vandal as the villain and Kassidy as the love interest.

• Alexis Kaye (Punchline): The Joker's former girlfriend and the newest "Harley Quinn"-type character. I don't particularly like her as a character or as a potential love interest for Jason, but some fans want a Jason/Harley pairing. Harley has already been romantically involved with Bruce and Dick, whereas Alexis could offer a similar kind of story without repeating that pattern. A relationship between Jason and Alexis could explore the bond between two people whose lives were permanently shaped—and deeply damaged—by the Joker.

• Komand'r (Blackfire): I'm cheating a bit here since she's definitely not street-level. But Jason helped free her planet in Red Hood and the Outlaws, so she could work as a short-term love interest during a space adventure. (And no, the countless Red X × Blackfire fan arts from the Teen Titans TV show have absolutely nothing to do with why I like this ship.)

What do you think? Can you think of any other couples that would be good for Jason and meet those requirements? There aren't many options; Dick and Bruce have slept with 80% of the female characters in DC...
