Is there someone with a rubber stamp just letting everything slide on through?Is there no one in charge that has any red ink left? Oh yeah, CB Cebulskiis only worried about which sandwitch shops are being shut down by the hysteria. Gotta focus on what's important.
Given all the awful stuff, Benids got away with during his Avengers run, it is clear Marvel doesn't have any editors, just some whose a glorified yes man

No doubt.
MAGIC swords, Blue Kryptonite, Roby-quartz armor, taking off Wonder Woman's belt, Bionics not working in cold temperatures;you gotta love those equalizing MacGuffins.

Or maybe I'm thinking of: "Sticks and stones won't break my bones, and I've got a healing factor that makes swords and knives useless against me!"

I might just pick it up.
I almost jumped in on the HoX/PoX stuff but pulled back at the last minute. I'm glad they are "fixing" the X-Men. It seemed like it floundered for some time. I've been reading since....uggh...1976
so they are near and dear to my heart! Dang I'm old.

Gorgon. The man who killed Wolverine and had the Hand resurrect him in the Enemy of the State arc.
