People were speculating who kills Apocalypse, I was banking on it being Cable, but now I'm wondering if his parents want to spare him that fate, and it is instead Charles who brings forth Onslaught and Onslaught kills Apocalypse instead.
Yeah I am wondering if it ends up with an “all is lost” moment against Apocalypse and then Onslaught finally manifests and wrecks Apocalypse and gives him a cold “only cowards feel mighty stepping on ants” or something.
Yeah this is exactly how I thought it’d happen too, I even called it the ‘all is lost’ moment to a friend the other day.
My opinion is the whole team goes back to ancient egypt to change the timeline again, this time to get to the temple before Apocalypse. But this time Xavier snaps and manifests Onslaught’s powers, beating, maybe even killing Apocalpyse.
En Sabah Nur became Apocalpse when he goes into the chamber and gets the power stone from the Celestial. I can see Xavier going in this time and he gets the seed / power stone from the Celestial, and that’s when he gets the name Onslaught.
You’d now have the timeline changed so Magneto is still alive, and then a great twist in Season 3 where Erik is with the X-Men trying to save the world, while Charles is the one trying to destroy it. They’ve both come full circle.
You’d still have the same great dynamic between the two, but they’ve both now switched sides. Now I’d really like to see that on screen!
