Dr. Valerie Cooper quotes from X-Men '97

You know, in Genosha, I felt a lot of things: pain, grief, admiration for those who fought despite the odds. But you know what the oddest thing was? No one seemed shocked or surprised — not even me. Yes, I was scared, but really I just had the most profound sense of déjà vu, as if past, present, and future didn't matter and never had, because we always end up in the same ugly place. Thing is, Magneto knows us better than Charles ever did, knows we know better, that most of us experience tragedies like Genosha as a bit of déjà vu before getting on with our day. But the scariest thing about Genosha wasn't the death or the chaos. It was a thought, the only sane thought you can have when being chased by giant robots that were built to crush you: Magneto was right.

Our Special Sciences Division is flying in to dismantle Master Mold. Yet again, humanity is in the X-Men’s debt.

Cyclops

Trask would rather humans and mutants go to war than work together. We all win when men like him fail.

You sound like Charles. He would have been proud today.

Cyclops

Thank you, Dr. Cooper. But to be honest, it was a team effort. Always has been.

Most other nations don't allow a terrorist to be their leader.

Magneto

Yet so many allow their leaders to be terrorists.

Bastion's very own Doctor Mengele.

Mr. Sinister

[chuckles]

What's so funny?

Mr. Sinister

I knew Mengele. He could have been so much more. But he settled on being a Nazi pup. I'm using Bastion. Pig pens brimming with mutant test subjects. That's my dream.
