This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.
It’s a recurring theme throughout contemporary X-Men comics.
Magneto was right.
For years, it was just a cynical observation. But lately, Magneto being right hits a bit harder. It’s no longer just a popular meme or a dramatic moment in X-Men 97. It offers powerful insights into the real world. And those insights are worth heeding.

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.
This video is a post-mortem and an overall breakdown of the end of the Krakoa era in the X-Men comics. What started with House of X/Powers of X and ended with Fall of X, the X-Men underwent some of the biggest upheavals the franchise has experienced since the Chris Claremont era. It laid a new foundation unlike anything we’d seen before with the X-Men.
Then, Fall of X came and brought it to an ugly, destructive end.
There’s a lot to be said about the Krakoa era, what led up to it, and what will come after it. I do my best share my sentiments, my hopes, and what this era means to me and other X-Men fans. Enjoy!

This video is my review of Jean Grey #3, the third issue of Jean’s mini-series by Louise Simonson and Bernard Chang. In this issue, Jean continues navigating the past in hopes of fixing the present. This time, she returns to the events of Inferno and her confrontation with her clone, Madelyne Pyror. It was a fiery conflict that became a defining moment for her and Cyclops.
But even as she battles the Goblin Queen, the present is finally starting to catch up to her. And it sets the stage for a truly uncanny finale to this series.

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.
This video is a retrospective, as well as a celebration, of the return of Jean Grey in the pages of Marvel Comics. It unfolded in a five-issue mini-series entitled “Phoenix Resurrection,” but the circumstances and impact of the story went far beyond simply bringing back to life a character who had been dead for years.
Jean Grey is one of my favorite comic book characters of all time. Her coming back to life was an overdue, emotional experience. And this video is my way of sharing and appreciating that experience. Enjoy!
This is another video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World. This video is me sharing my excitement about the latest news about X-Men 97. If I sound overly giddy, I promise it’s for a good reason. Enjoy!

The following is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World. This video is my first attempt at a fan theory. For this theory, I attempt to surmise a way for Marvel Studios to integrate mutants into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We already know they’re coming. Kevin Feige has announced it. A variant of Charles Xavier showed up in Multiverse of Madness. And mutation was directly referenced in the finale of Ms. Marvel.
But even though we know mutants are set to enter the MCU, there remains a number of pressing questions.
Where have they been all this time?
Why did mutants never show up during major events like Infinity War?
This theory, which I call the Onslaught Theory, attempts to answer that with a hypothetical scenario that builds directly on recent events. Please note this is just my personal theory. It may or may not get debunked in the near future.
This video is my full review of Dr. Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness. Please note that this review contains heavy spoilers. I also do go on a bit of a side-rant regarding a certain character in this movie, but in a good way. Thank you and enjoy!
