Emma was even softer in Generation X. Her characterization in New X-Men and people acting as if she just reformed are kind of weird. (still love that run and her characterization is great; just a...
They are my fake parasocial friends, just like podcasters or twitter celebrities. More long-standing than any of those because I’ve known them since I was a child. I hadn’t payed attention to them...
I see there’s an X-Man up there with just an X on the back of his head so you know what’s up. I like it; also liked Bedlam’s white dyed x’s on the side of his head, also in Counter X. Counter X was...
He met another X-Man and got some memories in an alternate reality where Jean Grey was pretending to be Madelyne Pryor. I don’t like almost anything in the Counter X X-Man run but I do like the...
Love this guy. “Keep doing you!” - this poster, to his friend Maggott
Oh what might have been. I’d hate to think that thread, which received many faves, (the most important currency) contributed to X-Man coming back... like this. Generation X was my favorite recent...
He was my favorite character when I was 12 and only had access to some gorgeous pin-up art in DK’s Ultimate Guide to the X-Men. If you’d told me early last year he’d be coming back I’d be thrilled...
His return is the only moment I’ve really liked in UXM. It’s, uh, not enough, but it’s very nice regardless.
Haven’t visited these forums in months!!! Weird. how glib and callous Kitty and Storm were when a Jamie died.
Truly despise what they’ve done with Nate. He’s just a boring maniac. Doesn’t resemble...
I mean, she’s still murdered people/horses. (I know: she was very high at the time. I forgive her)
BTW if you want more Emma/Bobby stuff, he guests on Gen X 57 late in the run. There’s a school...
Never thought Nightcrawler was hot until Alan Davis drew him. (then he is: the hottest, with of course Alan Davis’s finest hair) Also don’t like him with facial hair. (fan of the similar facial...
No. Almost none of them are qualified! The schools should hire actual teachers.
Nonetheless, the jr x-books are always my favorites. Grown up X-Men can be, like... RA’s.
Don’t care about the...
Nate Grey Classic; anything else is an abomination

(his post-resurrection hair was good but now... well, it’s very hard for me to process what he’s doing now)

It’s unclear what Cordelia’s powers are. Maybe they’re really good! I guess she can’t take on Juggernaut, Black Tom Cassidy, and Mondo, but they’re a strong family unit so that’s perfectly...
The X-Men are not cops; they don’t care if you commit murder. If you commit a murder, their position is: you should join the X-Men until such a time as you are bored. They live in a world in which...
Good issue. I think the important thing to remember about any crimes Jean or Emma or whoever commits is that: if you like the characters; they don’t count. (I’m gay, liked Jeen’s conversation with...
In no medium is telepathy powerful to stop important characters from inconveniencing telepaths. Same in the comics! It works until it doesn’t.
I will not defend the baffling decision to turn New X-Men into a book about slaughtering teens. Wish they hadn’t done that!
Characters don’t need much development to be interesting to me. A cool design’s enough! A few good lines. The main thing about having fifty years of publishing history is that eventually everyone’s...
We live in a world with real-life minorities and don’t need metaphors for them. What’s cool about Marvel mutants is, like all superheroes or whatever, they are fantastic, like magical. Powers are...
I just re-read Generation X this year but I can’t recall if there’s an explanation. (didn’t care) Anyway, he can of course show up whenever creators or editors want him to. That’s how it works.
X-Man is one of my favorite characters but also just a haircut. He is one of my favorite haircuts. His hair got worse when he became a Shaman, also, his personality. (but that is truly secondary) It...
Get a haircut, Nate! Whose idea was this.
