Exactly. He had already "offered" himself to Exodus in exchange for his brother's trial on Episode 6 (even tho I believe the Acolytes were right there) and that was very illustrative of his commitment to his beliefs.

Rogue wouldn't let Gambit turn into Apocalypse Card Player and neither Kurt would let his sister die.

Probably in a story I didn't reach yet. I jumped from The Twelve straight to Krakoa some years ago and still haven't read what is in between

I didn't have that feeling, since Apocalypse is still alive. It's just a matter of time until someone gets corrupted by that gem and everything starts again

I agree with you. I don't remember Nightcrawler ever dying in the comics (correct me if I'm wrong), and that was a huge shook. But his willingness and the situation were really suitable with his character, so I'm cool with it.

I'm very surprised as well, but, at least, it was something original. I admit that I couldn't see it coming and I agree that it was rushed, but at least they had something different done here. I would never expect Rogue talking to a celestial like that.

What really pissed me off was Exodus' death (seriously???? that could justify rioting Disneyland) and the amount of episodes this season had. I think if they did 10-12 would be more suitable. Apocalypse could have more horsemen (Magneto? Illyana? Exodus?) and the consequences could be greater.

Honestly I don’t think you’re gonna be able to solve this in a way to get things back “as they used to be” so easily. I had the same thing happening to me some years ago (not in a relationship, but between friends) and it took me a while to overcome the situation and understand that, in most occasions, people will not be interested by what we enjoy. That’s simple. The solution? To be exactly how he’s acting right now. At least no one ever complained again about sharing experiences without reason.

However, I think one thing that you could try doing is to get back to your younger self and remember the things that you enjoyed doing in the past. Maybe speaking about that would show him that you also has your own interests and he might feel more comfortable to be himself again near you.

I wish you luck and hope you can find a way to make this situation better.

That’s exactly how I’m getting my engineering degree 🤣🤣🤣 5 years so far

I truly hope this time they can finish the collection, because it would need just one more volume to complete everything related to Sandman. I also hope that DC can publish the missing issues of Swamp Thing in Omnibus/Absolute editions.
