At this point, I guess ALL the X-Men and X-Characters should just be gay or bi, huh? :confused:

LOL, Hard to disagree with that.
LOL, agreed. I always thought the same, but I heard that BYRNE was the one who pushed for Warren to be brought back to the team. Makes since, because Warren was gone pretty much as soon as Byrne left.
I'm sure if Claremont really wanted to use Iceman in (Uncanny) X-Men, editorial would have allowed it, but wasn't Iceman usually tried up in Champions or Defenders during much of Claremont's run? And...
*Sigh*. The overdone, "Look...NEW costumes!!!!" ploy. And they're not even GOOD costumes. I know many will disagree, but Marauders was better before Steve Orlando took over...
I knew someone was going to bring up Morrison's crap. I hate his run and didn't even have it in mind when I said Magneto was great when he returned to villainy. But Hell, even Claremont wrote a great...
Claremont is rhe GOAT, but he wasn't always right everything (X-Men Forever showed that). Even back in the day when Magneto reformed and decided to walk Xavier's path, it didn't last more than a few...
Banshee was my first thought, for sure.
You completely missed the point. My point is, is the X-Men's greatest and most popular villain supposed to just keep on being a good guy for going on 2 decades? I don't think that works AT ALL. In...
I wonder if people feel the same way about Magneto, who has been neutered by having his power levels gradually weakened and being portrayed as a "hero" and a member of the X-Men for about 10-15 years...
Really, ANY X-Men character who has been around since the mid 90's or earlier; most of them have been very badly written out of character and INCONSISTENT character wise for the past 20-25 years...
That's actually the issue with several of Spider-Man's villains. Guys like Electro, Sandman, or Hydro-Man come to mind. It's either they have the potential to be SUPER powerful but writers have to...
I agree. Over at DC, they have gotten REALLY bad about that with Batman; I would really hate to seem them over do the "villains with personal connections" thing with Spider-Man.
PLEASE, no......
Exactly...
LOL, yep. Typical DC-style foolishness and gimmickry from back in the day...LOL!
Agreed. Back in the day, since ASM was the main book, it was typically reserved for the popular, big name villains from Spidey's rogues gallery, while satellite books like Web and Spectacular usually...
Great observations. I have always said that JMS's run didn't age well. I was saying that TEN years ago.
The whole high school teacher thing in particular was an especially bad idea. Unless he...
I love how you cut half of my comment off to try to make your own point and try to make yourself look smart; you cut out the part where I pointed out that he basically started using ASM as an Iron...
I like Zeb Wells, but JRJR again, though?!? UGH!!!
I will say that MOST of Slott's run was better than Spencer's boring, focused on everybody BUT Peter/Spidey, overly intricate, "3 years worth of 2-4 issues of a month were all ONE big, long story"...
This. I actually loved everything he wrote, up until Superior Spider-Man ended with a dud. It was downhill from there, and that's when he started feeling like he didn't love Spider-Man as much as he...
Spencer had NO IDEA what to do with Pete or how to write him...
Yep. ASM vol. 3 and ASM vol. 4 were some of the worse Spidey comics ever written and I was DEFINTELY ready for Slott to leave the book by that point. But before that, Slott was ON FIRE and was...
I agree with this assessment, especially that second paragraph.
