Did anyone watch the new episode of The Gifted?

I'll post my thoughts later after I watch it.

Well I guess that makes more sense than posting your thoughts before you'd watched it.

Thanks, sum1.

I was actually waiting for someone to post here so I wouldn't have to double post.

Okay, I'm not entirely sure about this guy who's hitting on Lauren. Seems like this is moving way too fast. I did like Lorna training the other kids to use their powers, but Caitlin was right that as Lauren's mother she should have a say in it. I still think there could be a connection between the Strucker family and the Von Strucker dynasty from Marvel comics. But they were genetically enhanced, like you said.

Marcos getting more involved with the cartel seems interesting, but I'm still not sold on him and Lorna. I'm still miffed that the X-Universe didn't do the Havok/Polaris relationship from the comics where Lorna is in a relationship with Alex Summers, Cyclops' brother. Given what happened in the movies that seems unlikely now.

John Proudstar is still my favorite member of the team so far.

Feel bad about Blink, though.

Hope she doesn't do anything stupid.

Did anyone else watch it?

The Hydra Strucker was already used in the MCU, so it's unlikely Fox will connect this family to him. Unless the merger with Disney goes ahead, anyway

Well, this is what I saw online, sum1.

Spoiler:

I wonder what they had to agree with Marvel to allow that.

Here's the Fenris twins on the cover of Uncanny X-Men 200, from late 1985, drawn by JRJR:

Yep, you showed me that pic before, sum1.

Oh, I have no idea.

But Fox and Marvel do seem to be chummier lately. Perhaps sensing an imminent takeover by the Mouse?

sum1 · 11-11-2017, 07:04 PM

Yeah, but other people might not have seen it.

**PhoenixRising** · 11-12-2017, 06:35 PM

Yeah, I know.

But those other people seem to be on The Gifted board, sadly. But we'll keep posting about it here.

New episode tomorrow!

it's not like there's much posting there either

Some things don't seem to catch on on FF. I've posted on the Defenders board recently and it doesn't get much posts.

Hi, Rita!

Well, I've posted there a bit, but yeah, not much activity so far. It's still a pretty new show, and it's not in the Arrowverse, so that doesn't help.
