New Gods is a cool name, but ya gotta recognize The Eternals.  A name to inspire awe.

Monday 1/26 toss-up comes to us courtesy of X-Men 98:

The question - should Xavier's power be able to do this?

Yesterday, I'll go with "New Gods" being a cooler name.

As for today's question, there's absolutely no way Xavier should be able to do that. However, it's worth pointing out that Claremont was just five issues into his lengthy run. It's a mistake, yes, but one he wouldn't make a year or five years down the road.

"Suspension of disbelief" doesn't mean "sloppy and contradictory." Even the most imaginative of fictional works still require internal logic. This scene clearly makes no sense, given the way Xavier's powers are supposed to work, and that's a problem. It's a mistake, but like I said, I'll give Claremont some slack. He more than made up for it down the road!
