No they did not.
Just finished talking about this in the comics thread. If anything the EiC just said the opposite of a reboot would happen.
Then again ppl have been using the word reboot all crazy without it's meaning mattering much. Marvel isn't starting over their universe.
End of both universes? Sounds like a reboot to me.
That's not what a reboot is.
That's just raising the scales to show this event is deserving of the hype.
One time Dr. Strange got in a fight that led to the end of the 616 universe. He used magic to create a new universe exactly like the 616 in every way except for the fact that he knew the universe had ended. Another time Thanos had to destroy the 616 universe to stop a multiversal threat and he used some cosmic item to recreate the universe in the exact same way with only slight minor differences.
Ending a universe doesn't mean a reboot is going to happen.
I will say I have no doubt Marvel is ending the ultimate universe for good though and they're just gonna salvage w/e unique characters, concepts, story ideas already in the works they want to stick around as they move forward.
From what someone told me everything from 616 stays the same.. The might be alt universes created from this that go back and change some significant storylines but that doesn't mean the original event didn't happen.
Some of the ultimate storylines will collide with 616 and basically exist in a separate universe that they can mess around with them..
i mean it just sounds like an elaborate way to make Inhumans the new mutuants of this era to me
Mutants will still exist though.
If they wanted to get rid of mutants they wouldn't need an elaborate way to do it. They just would've never brought mutants back after AvX. They'd keep the # the same and then slowly have most of them die out until only the X-Men existed and then make them like any other superhero team fighting super villains.
Aren't the twins not mutants anymore? Are they now Inhumans? Are they still related to Magneto?
The twins are still mutants. Don't pay attention to rumors or craze X-fans that are scared Marvel is phasing mutants out of the comics cuz of movie rights.
So far nothing has been said of them being Inhumans. No reason not to believe they're not mutants but if you want to know more they claim it'll all be in the relaunched Uncanny Avengers comic.
They're no longer the children of Magneto or related in any way but so far that seems to be a retcon restoring the original continuity when they weren't the children of Magneto which was the case for like the first 15-20 years of their existence.
Aren't the twins not mutants anymore? Are they now Inhumans? Are they still related to Magneto?
Scarlet Witch cast a spell removing blood ties between Them and Magneto.
That's not what happened.
She cast a spell to strike down anyone related to her. Quicksilver went down. Magneto didn't. Then she realized they weren't related, laughed, mocked him, attacked him and then left.
