![]() I don’t get a sense with her of what she’d do next. ![]() So, what’s her point here?Ĭassandra Nova, when all is said and done, has no motivations beyond revenge. Except Charles Xavier is dead, and while, going from the Marvel Wiki, a psychic simulation of Jean was part of her ultimate defeat, Jean wasn’t responsible – Emma Frost was. ![]() In X-Men Red, she’s back from the dead, using nanobot sentinels to enflame anti-mutant hatred, including infecting world leaders with them. The problem is her implementation in X-Men Red. In this case, since that thing is Xavier’s dream of human/mutant coexistence, that makes her a solid X-Men villain. Putting aside the issues with the whole “inherently evil twin thing” this is something of a standard revenge plot – get revenge on the person who destroyed you/harmed you by not only destroying them but also destroying the thing they love. Nova psychically reconstituted herself and made it her mission to destroy her brothers’ dream as an act of revenge. When Cassandra was introduced in Grant Morrison’s New X-0Men, she was set up as the evil fraternal twin of Charles Xavier, who Charles tried to psychically kill in the womb when he found out she was evil. However, I do have a problem with the opening villain, Cassandra Nova. I appreciate having a team lead by Jean Grey The Elder (particularly since, as of this writing, they’ve killed off Jean the Younger in X-Men Blue), along with having a team with Wolverine II/Laura Kenny (soon to be X-23 again) and Honey Badger/Gabby. I’ve been reading X-Men Red since it started.
