What made me really angry was how dumb the concept for Battle of the Atom was. Like, teen Cyclops and teen Jean going AWOL makes sense, because they're dumb teenagers who think they know better, and they've seen the horrible fate that awaits them.
But all those other more seasoned X-men, saying let's endanger all of reality just for some hippy new age let's give these kids a choice bullshit, is one of the dumbest things I've ever read. It is so out of character, almost all of these people have been through enough time travel bullshit to know what a MONUMENTALLY bad idea not sending the originals back would be. You wouldn't even need that experience to know it's a bad idea. Just a grade school level IQ would do fine. But I guess Bendis isn't that advanced yet.
