Re: Cold Open
In Bendis’ New Avengers 20 Xorn has all the energy powers lost by mutants after M-Day and tries to give them to Magneto.
I’m reading the Star Trek article and I find it charming that a drum that Jay has (fairly!) hit in criticism for over 10 years is “if you’re going to make an allusion to a classic from a franchise, you better make sure yours holds up in comparison.” Also, I haven’t seen this movie, but I found myself annoyed at its handling of Kirk’s death by the end of the article. So well done, Jay!
