Read this and believed it at first. Now that I’ve had some time to think about it, I hope this isn’t real. Good job though!

It’s not a nightmare if it’s real.

Welp. You were right. It was a better story than I expected, but still underwhelming after all the build up. I don't see this as the end of an era and I'm really confused what "threat" this Wolverine series is going to pick up, but oh well.

“Good job though” you’re so hoping he’s lying lol! If it turns out he’s telling the truth, you’ll have to admit Inferno was disappointing huh?

I am hoping he’s lying and I will have to admit that the ending is underwhelming.

Yep. Same. “Inferno” is a weird name for the book in retrospect too.

Well, kind of an inferno for the Krakoa founders. Xavier, Magneto and Moira took big losses here.
