The X-Men and grief

[ExodusCloak]

Given that the X-Men and death has a revolving door and how every X-Men is different. Let's go over how every X-Men processes grief. Whether it's a grandiose display of power or the loss of will to live.

Let's start
Storm grieves Wolverine by creating a grandiose display of power

[ExodusCloak]

Emma Frost grieved Scott by trying to fulfill his wishes, get revenge on the humans and die in the process. She went to dark place and became suicidal.

[ExodusCloak]

Jean Grey also became suicidal upon Cyclops death and lost the will to live herself. Resulting in Dark Angel having to use her powers to travel back in time during the Mys-Tech crossover and save everyone.

I know it was just a cover, but I always liked this one:

Between this and Ultimate, I thought it was cool that Gambit's death ends with a kiss from Rogue and then her eyes turn black and red

[ExodusCloak]

Wolverine resulted in just getting revenge and torturing Marikos killer

[ExodusCloak]

Cyclops way of grieving was to replay everything in hiss head until he fell into a downward spiral of despair

[ExodusCloak]

Charles Xavier is quick to move on

[Silver Fang]

I found it interesting Monet consistently had covers given to a few of her's. lol But in grief, we see her cradle the guys who are lost to her -shedding tears for two.


Initial more average stereotypical grief. Followed by even more snippiness with comrades

And in some cases, severe need for vengeance.

we had a whole issue of Jean and Hope mourning Cable, and Jean has been grieving Cyclops since she came back.

Jubilee plays tough for a while, and then releases.

Grief, prayer, protest, victory, defeat...all of it.
Sometimes standing, sometimes from the knees.
Doing this...

Soak the pillow, the sky - with smoke and fire in the eyes.
