X-Men is about heroes and villains and more.
heroes : logan, charles, iceman, kitty pryde, jean, storm.
villains or grey characters = magneto, mystique.
I am sorry but i find this whole.....let's rewrite or ignore the xmen mythos troubling. even further troubling is the defense of MCU weak villains by saying it is not about villains, um it is based on comic books where good guys fight bad guys at the core of everything. fantasy even
X-Men vs Magneto
Superman vs Lex Luther
Batman vs Joker
Spiderman vs Green Goblin
Luke vs Vader
Harry vs Voldermort
all are essential to every journey of the hero. that is fact.
X-Men will not be were it is today if not for their amazing rogues gallery and that is a fact too.
gosh even the personal xman had personal epic villains to deal with. i.e
Cable vs Styfe and Apoclapyse
Xavier vs shadow King and juggernaut
wolverine vs sabertooth
Scott vs Sinister
angel vs arcangel
hope vs bishop
Jean vs dark phoenix
there are no good heroes without good villains and it is fact.
