Respect the Mythos: Quicksilver is a Mutant
For many of us who actually read Marvel comics, it was a kick in the groin to see Kabam is releasing Quicksilver as a “Science” class rather than “Mutant”. This is absurd and disrespectful to his creators, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, as well as the multitude of writers and readers over the decades. Quicksilver was one of the first X-Men villains, first appearing in 1974. He is and always has been a mutant, like his sisters and father. He was in the Brotherhood of Mutants. He even lost his powers on M-Day, further proof he’s a mutant. Making Scarlet Witch and Magik “Mystic” were bad enough, but this takes things too far. Ok, the High Evolutionary messed with him: by making him a mutant! Is Sinister also science because his powers were awoken by Apocalypse? Is Apocalypse tech because of his armor? This needs to be fixed NOW before he’s released. Maybe I’m alone on this, but as an avid reader and collector I’m beyond disappointed that Kabam would do something this stupid.
