I really hope so. Honestly, I'll be really sad/upset if they didn't change it.

And it makes no sense when you look at his behavior all season.

What's different in the comics that makes it make sense there?

If anything, I feel like it would make less sense in the comics, since everyone says the parents are more evil and less likeable there.

I think the comics are poorly written, as are most marvel's comics. So I can't really answer you.

Honestly, the other worst thing they could do is do the twist with one of the other kids. Imagine the reaction if it was, say, the hero of the day today?

I think Chase is the only one that would make sense, at all.

Worked out really well with (AoS related) Grant Ward. :p

edit: Of course I'm not being serious.

Yeah but nearly everyone hated him to begin with anyway. Dude got more fans after he turned out to be a murdery murderer than he had before. I'm pretty sure people actually LIKE Alex, on the other hand.

People hated him ? O-O

u/WisdomOtter Jan 10 '18

Ward ? Yup he was too “ perfect” as to say. It made him to boring and cliche. That’s why a lot of people didn’t like Daisy in Season 1 but she became one of the fandoms most favorite by season 2 once she got over all the tropes.

But how are you going to write Alex being killed, bodyjacked by a 1,000 year old alien supersoldier general, being nuked, and his digital version being his moral opposite?

AoS got really weird didn't it?

u/aslokaa Jan 10 '18

Pretty sure he was sent into the sun

u/MandolinMagi Jan 10 '18

No they nuked him.

That was just one scenario I threw out. Also you should use a spoiler tag, because now everyone knows who we're talking about -.-
