And the goodness continues! Wraith and his crew are most likely the most amoral fictional characters I’ve ever encountered, and their dehumanistion of the mutants could rival even that of the Nazis, had they actually existed. Although, where Wraith and his gang of anonymous grunts were “evil” through and through — although in one of his last scenes, he gets to defend himself somewhat, and present his own view of the world, instead of just being depicted as a sadistic madman who is sadistic for sadism’s own sake — Sabretooth represented a relative nuance. Sure, his world view wasn’t presented until the end, either, but it sure was good to see, anyway, what motivated him and allowed him to do what he did.
The rest of the story was also magnificent, and Nick Fury was even more brilliant than I’d ever dreamed of. And Jean Grey! ![]()
