Who is the loner of X-Men?

**theoneandonly** · 08-20-2018, 06:54 AM

Is it Cyclops or Wolverine? I am more inclined to think that it's Cyclops as he never has established any lasting relationship beyond Jean and possibly Emma as cable has never been as close to him as he would have liked just like his own father. the same goes for Rachael whereas Wolverine has formed much more lasting relationships with alpha flight jubilee Jean mariko Laura Deadpool etc. for him to remain the loner he was. funny isn't it how close he follows the Batman loner archetype who is surrounded by family and close associates.

anyway who do you think is the loner of the x men? a argument could be made that they are all loners isolated from humanity but who do you specifically think is a loner/misanthrope?

Cyke is not a loner, lol. He was always a team guy.

Wolverine is the default answer, but frankly he is loner in the same way than Batman is. Cable is probably the closest to that considerong how many times he is busy with his own **** and agenda outside the group.

Yeah, it is true.

Wolverine, which is weird because he is everybody best friend.
Cable likes to keep his distance so he is a loner too, it's just that the relationships he has are good.
Emma never got close with many outside Cyclops, so maybe she counts too.

Bishop springs to my mind, of the core X-Men.

I think being a loner means being that way by choice. Forgetmenot has no control over his situation.

Not many, really, and not Wolverine, largely because the family theme that runs through the franchise.

Cyclops... well in the Silver Age he was certainly introverted and burdened by an overwhelming sense of responsibility - in a way, frankly, many Marvel Silver Age heroes tended to be. Hell, even Silver Age Iron Man, anemic moustachioed Batman that he was, only maintained a facade of being a playboy - he would retire to a hotel room at the end of the evening to plug himself in at the mains, before returning to fight poorly conceived Eastern bloc adversaries.

It’s difficult to think of X-Men being loners past the Silver Age. Well-known loners in comics? Ditko era Spider-Man. Rorschach. Some of the other vigilantes, maybe.

People will say it’s wolverine but I don’t think so. They guy is in every marvel group and he seems to get along with almost everyone. People think wolverine is a loner just cuz he’s an ass and has a bitchy attitude. Whereas Cyclops is the real loner, his friend circle is tight .. only Jean n Emma were close to him. He seems like introvert, and he’s don’t share or whine a lot. He’s suffering from crippling social anxiety or sth xD

That has little to do with being lonely. He's a team guy. Is he a people guy? I don't think so.
