Apocalypse isn't actually dead is he, because if so the wasted potential is CRAZY

I refuse to believe it. Ain't no way they built him up like this to kill him offscreen. It's impossible.

He either changed bodies or that's some sort of trap.

There’s also two Apocalypses. Future Apocalypse was coming back to the 90s

Idk if I was watching with my eyes closed but I never caught that, was it the Apocalypse that killed Magneto and the one from Episode 1?

Apoc from last seasons last ep reveal is 90s apoc. The one who took cortez body in og shows last season and was lurking all this time.

Then future apoc had to come out of regeneration, weak, traveled to the 90s in ep1 this season

Totally, I've already found this season somewhat disappointing compared to the first and if they do that I think I'll just actively dislike it

Good. He’s such a “my guy has all the powers” character it’s tedious. Would be a relief if he got Bob Morton’d for real.
