    I did not miss him a bit. I do not applaud his return. Only good thing is because his return another disliked X-Man went away.
    Still a net gain.
    Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!

    Again I don't remember Marvel trying to pass her off fully as Asian, they don't list her as one of their Asian characters and admit openly that she's a British person in a different body than the one that she was born in, she didn't change her name, she doesn't live in Japan or anything and doesn't try to be what she's not, she still goes home to England...

    Still think Wolverine/Logan has Chuck beat on that one. I mean there are 6 little clones of him running around the MU.

    IDK Fanto had far more potential (still relatively new), was undergoing a great villain arc in Bunncanny X-Men, tolerable under Spurrier/Bunn/Soule, and is Bi.

    Xavier's potential has been dried up since he left the New Mutants for Lilandra, was always a villain, not tolerable under any writer, and is another straight member of the """cast""".

    Maybe the idea would be a better pill to swallow if you stop looking at them like "clones" but an actual family. I haven't seen anyone complain about Batman and his family or say there are like "8 little Bat clones running around the DC".

    For all intents and purposes, and the sake of the argument, yeah they are.

    You would be familiar with both if you'd hang out at Batman forums more often.

    Point is, the Bat-Family is generally more accepted than Logan's Wolvie-Family.

    Older things usually are more accepted than new(ish) concepts.

    I have. Plenty of times. There is literally so much discord between the Robin fans sometimes it's a wonder how they keep up with the beef between characters.

    None of them even look like him.Okay, except the guy who is literally him but older. No, scratch that, doesn't actually look like him at all.

    Bruce has a bunch of practically identical duplicates in Tim, Jason, and Dick.

    Marvel treat asians like crap
    Rant
    Jean really is the worst character in Marvel, isn't she?
    Scemma forever Triangle never.
    Scott needs an alpha female like Bettsy.
    What woman wouldn't be attracted to Scott? He's 100% alpha male who tells the Avengers to go f*#& themselves.
    I want cyclops back free from any ginger women to be his own man.
    Logically..
    TeenClops should have lusted for Emma & Cuckoos. Especially Stepford Cuckoos! They're teenage triplet clones of his hottest ex, how could he not be?
    End of rant

    Not saying that they treat Asian's great, only that I don't see Marvel trying to pass Betsy off as Asian, they keep saying that she's British woman in an Asian body...

    Plus the whole family aspect writes itself:

    OML - Grumpy Grandpa

    Logan - Centerpiece; Father

    Sabretooth - Uncle You Should Probably Avoid

    Deathstrike - Aunt You Should DEFINITELY Avoid

    Daken - Emo Older Brother

    Laura - Prodigal Daughter

    Bellona - Edgy Middle Child

    Jimmy - idk he's just there

    Gabby - Adorable Little Sister

    Adopted:
    -Jubilee
    -Armor
    -Pixie

    Johnathan the Actual Wolverine: Super Pet

    I know certain Robin fans hate other Robins. Like I'm a huge Tim Drake fan that hates Damian's guts BUT I would never want the character killed off or write him off as just "another Bat clone". Plus, animosity between fanbases of the kids seems kinda different than just writing off the whole family.

    (should've been a mutant)
