The Claremont Runさんのイラストまとめ

When perceived from the perspective of Colossus, the Kitty/Piotr relationship can be read as inappropriate, uncomfortable, or even predatory, but if approached via Kitty it can be seen as a gender-inverted representation of a common fantasy construct. #xmen 1/9

For X, there’s no such thing as a lost cause and no-one is beyond redemption. Not even Magneto surpasses X’s capacity for hope and forgiveness, with X entrusting Magnus to safeguard both his students and his dream when he’s forced to depart. 7/7

X will even go so far as to impair his more famous dream of demonstrating that mutants need not be feared. Having Wolverine on the team does not help with those optics, nor for that matter does helping Rogue, a known terrorist. 5/7

Much has been written about Xavier’s problematic ethics (and deservedly so) but when it comes to his commitment to rehabilitation, Charles shows an almost supernatural level of both commitment and conviction, even saving his fair share of lost souls in the process. #xmen 1/7

On a broader scale, she gets to be with the X-Men again, gets to say goodbye, and even gets to stand witness to a heroic self-sacrifice that is parallel to the one Kitty missed in Eagle Plaza. It’s everything that Kitty desperately wants, and helps her to move forward. 9/9

Relatedly, people who have suffered through the loss of a loved one will often become fixated on fantasies of second chances in which they are able to act in such a way as to prevent the tragedy from occurring. Against all odds, this is what Kitty gets with the X-Babies. 6/9

Coincidentally, Kitty’s inability to control her phasing power in the issue forms an apt metaphor for her depression. The idea of “drifting off” and being unable to stay grounded and focused in the moment is relatable for many people suffering from depression. 5/9

The tension of confined living brings some emotions to the surface, however, and Kitty needs some time alone, which ultimately leads to her acknowledging and reflecting upon her feelings in a way that she has, up to this point, largely avoided. 4/9

The story offers resolution on an ongoing character arc surrounding Kitty’s grief and survivor’s guilt over what she believes is the death of the X-Men in “Fall of the Mutants” and Illyana in “Inferno.” Kitty is depressed, but distracting herself with Excalibur. 3/9

UXM Annual #8 is something of a bridging issue. Beginning with #9, X-Men Annuals would transition from frivolous side stories to epic and momentous showcases of X-Men storytelling at its finest. UXMA #8 lies somewhere in between. #xmen 1/6
