What is the most powerful moment of your favorite character? the most memorable?

[yogaflame]

I never wanted two people to get together and stay together more than Synch and M. More than T'Challa and Storm. More than Peter and Mary Jane. More than Vision and Scarlet Witch. More than Blue Marvel and Spectrum. More than every other Marvel couple that has ever existed.

I HATE Marvel for killing off Everett. And I HATE them all the more for not bringing him back.

Amen! Synch and Monet were ready to be the next power couple of the MU.

One of my favorite Storm moments of all time

Doesn't even need words!

Amen! Synch and Monet were ready to be the next power couple of the MU.

I'm holding out hope that there is an alternate universe somewhere where Synch lives on and Monet is at his side... and someday a lucky creative team will bring us their story.

What is the moment or story that turned one character into your favorite?

What about you?

Cyclops battling Apocalypse and having to send Nathan into the future in X-Factor vol. 1 #68. Claremont narrated the issue from Scott's perspective, taking us through his thoughts and feelings--his love for Jean, his regrets over Madelyne, his turmoil over having to make an emotionally impossible decision to save his son, and his outward strength and stoicism throughout the entire event. It made Scott tragic, heroic, and sympathetic all at the same time. It also made him seem very adult--a man who'd lived enough to have accumulated some serious mileage. As someone who prefers his protagonists competent, honorable, and tough, but weathered and weary, I loved that.

Lot of great choices in this thread !

For me, I love this scene from Uncanny X-Men 251 :





This one from Uncanny X-Men 297 :




And finally, it might not be my favorite but I don't know seeing two of my favorite X-Men just drinking beer and giving a toast to one of my favorite X-Woman after the mess they went through in recent years was bittersweet :

And then they promptly forgot that bridge-building moment ever happened, and Logan went right back to RRRRHate.

X-Man, by marriage maybe?

I mean, how do the in-laws feel?

That was a great moment, though!

He was funding Mutantes Sans Frontières, which was funding the X-Men in the early SF days, so a case could be made!

Such is the way of the X-Office in recent years unfortunately but I still like this moment I mean judging by your avatar you must be a fan of Laura, just look at what happened to her when All New Wolverine and All New X-Men were being released at the same time, she was her own person in one serie and a parody of Logan in the other, that's the same thing lol.

Oddly enough they're from New Xmen.

Emma does what it takes to take care of her students and beneath that icey exterior she does have a heart

New Mutants 45, when Kitty Pryde stood up at Larry Bodine’s funeral.

Uncanny X-Men 203, Rachel vs. the Beyonder.

Captain Britain vol. 2 6, when Kaptain Briton, the Nazi mirror version of Captain Britain, had taken the 616 version tried to rape Psylocke, she unleashed the full might of her telepathic powers on him, and destroyed his mind.

OK, OK and OK.

Uncanny Xmen annual 11. Psylocke comes to the realization that she doesn't need to be a badass to be a badass, because she's already a badass.

OK, also.

Doesn't even need words!

That's why PMS is an awesome COMIC STORYTELLER and why others are NOT.

For me, I love this scene from Uncanny X-Men 251 :

OK.

What is the most powerful moment of your favorite character? the most memorable? What is the moment or story that turned one character into your favorite?

Well, that's three questions, and they might not have the same answer.

As for my favorite character, I think his most powerful moment took place right in the very second of his 'birth', although it had nothing to do with breaking skulls nor kicking ass. Quite the contrary, he was completely defenseless and under ruling class' power. But his spirit hit hard with just four simple words:



NO.
ONE.
OWNS.
ME.

There they have it, those who consider Longshot a dumb bufoon, forgetting about a background that compites in horror and toughness with Wolverine's. Unsubmissiveness is, too, a very defining trait of his persona.

Now, what is the moment that turned him into my favourite? Why, it didn't take long, TBH, but probably it was as far as page 5 of #1, precisely when Longshot looks so vulnerable and lost and weird (or is it our world which is weird?) that he seems sick.



Some panels later his response is cracking up. How could I not love him?
