Chuck gets a hero moment on Judgement Day

Let's be honest, Charles Xavier was not behaving heroically during the first Krakoan age. Creepy, manipulative, condescending, cold-blooded, committed to realpolitik and the big picture. Nobody is perfect, and nothing prepares a teacher/headmaster for being patriarch of a young nation under constant fire. That was the point, of course, but I admire Gillen giving him a moment to shine.

So when Druig, temporary Prime Eternal, decided genocide was dandy Charles held the fort alone in a psychic siege against immortal angels. He's not battling one Eternal there - he's battling ALL of them. They've been doing this for a million years and they failed to get past Chuck's big brain and will to protect his people.

Sure, he died a few times doing it, his brain melted into cosmic sludge - but they had eggs good to go so he could get back into it. 24 hours straight, while participating in council meetings/running a country under attack at the same time.

It's nice to see him flex his superhero chops. 🫅🧠👏

it's the fact that they keep thinking about each other, even during the end of the world

Illyana Rasputin dying in A.X.E.: Judgment Day #5 and Immortal X-Men #7

Since this was revealed to be a Celestial illusion, can anyone remind me if Illyana has ever had a confirmed Krakoan resurrection by the Five? I can’t recall any.

(And my headcanon is that having been reborn once already in the non-linear time of Limbo, she may very well be so connected to it that Limbo will always bring her back on its own. Illyana might have put in a DNR notice (Do Not Resurrect) to prevent there ending up being two of her. Which could have made for a good story with her friends hearing from the Five that they refuse to bring her back and not understanding why, and Illyana then turning up as they’re grieving her.)

A.X.E. : Judgement Day Companion Panels

Favorite volume in the companion was Starfox's, just from the differences b/t its art style and the other volumes. Like it was oddly softer than the others. Might've been that there were more pastel type colors in it if I had to put my finger on it.

Least favorite was the 2 Fantastic Four volumes just cause that's the group I know the least about so I can't really just drop into a volume or two like I can the others. Then again a lot of my knowledge right now is what they got going on in terms of blockbuster movies.

Wouldn't say that their volumes were out of place though as they were still relevant to the overarching events and plot.

Groups go Avengers -> Xmen -> Eternals -> Fantastic Four in terms of how much I know about them

I find Syne the Memotaur and Sally's relationship to be hilarious in a wholesome manner. It's oddly humanizing that a creature like Syne is invested in something like poetry. Not in a mocking way but rather an admirable way.

In a similar vein, the Machine that is Earth and Phastos - him feeling remorse at rebooting it
