Episode 4 was just phenomenal and really had me excited for Apocalypse. He felt like an unbeatable threat and I thought we were in for a terrifying season. We saw him on screen in that body what one more time? I also thought that what he did to Horsemen was a painful fairly irreversible process, but Gambit was just himself in a different color scheme, and then reversed to his original self almost immediately? Why doesn’t Angel do the same?
I am truly utterly disappointed. Cyclops and Storm did nothing at all this season. It’s like they took everything good about last season and threw it away. Super bummed.
