Finale was good, but thought it could've been better.

Spoiler!

Loved Bastion and how demented and unstoppable he came off. Not quite sure how all the XMen can't beat him but then a Sentinel's foot can hold him down. Also if you're going to showcase Iron Man and the Avengers in this episode as, "Guess what kids?!?" and then do essentially Avengers Age of Ultron with Asteroid M instead of Sokovia at the end, why wasn't Iron Man helping in the sky? I get why Daredevil, Captain America and Silver Samurai were just fighting crime on the ground, but are you telling me Tony Stark with all his knowledge of Project Magneto wouldn't understand that he may be needed should the missles not do the job and the Asteroid comes back down on planet Earth that he wouldn't have been on the bottom end with Storm, Rogue and Jean Grey trying to help in some way? I'm not sure why they decided to split the team into different time periods with the gravity core as well, do we need to see the En Saben Nur origin story for Apocalypse when he's already existed in this universe in earlier seasons? I know the comics has the possibility of Wolverine joining him to get his adamantium back, which is likely where they're going with it, but no mention of Onslaught at all, no tease really, Xavier doesn't go ape shit on Magento, just talks to him in his mind for the whole episode, doesn't bottle Magneto's hatred into himself like in the comics. So if you did this, it's going to be really weird pulling Onslaught out and saying, "Remember the finale from last season? We didn't show you, but this entity was created when Xavier did that." Overall Bastion, great, Cyclops, great, Jean Grey Phoenix, kinda outta nowhere and then leaves shortly after it saves her and the team for plot armor sakes. Sucks we have to wait until late 2025 to get the next season.
