    Keep in mind that Morrison's longterm goal for Quentin was to be a Phoenix host, but also an *******. So I think Aaron woobifying him came from Morrison's series bible, but that he may have taken it to an extreme. Quentin is better as an unrepentant *******.

    I liked Quentin but he should have become a villian. He should have represented one of the clear cases of the Xavier School failing. Instead they went that route with Elixir which was a twist, that I also liked

    Was that Morrison? Any hint of his Phoenix connection didn't happen til afterwards, as far as I'm aware.

    Very last issue of his run. He was in the White Hot Room with Jean and a bunch of other Phoenix hosts

    I loved New X-Men #132, which I felt handled Lorna extremely well and served as a strong revival of who she is and why she should get more use. Outside of that, it's pre-2009, and my reading of pre-2009 content is spotty.

    If being the central focus of a single arc means you're a pet character then EVERY character is a pet character.

    Morrison didn't seem to have a favorite, and if he did, then he played it off well enough that you couldn't tell.

    This isn't the same thing. As far as Morrison was concerned Quire only appeared in main continuity as an antagonist, in a single arc.

    because he hadn't enough time. It started the dumb thing of "character I like is a phoenix host"

    He didn't wanted to bring her back, that I'm 100% sure.

    And for me it is 50%/50% quesada/Morrison fault. Morrison wanted her dead, quesada too. Morrison just enabled it to happen

    You're not making any sense. If he was indeed a pet character of Morrison's, he would have introduced him much earlier in the run and played him off as a recurring character. He didnt. Quentin was created and eliminated in the same arc that introduced him. He got a few panels outside of regular continuity in the finale to wrap things up. What other writers did with him after is on them. Nothing about how Morrison did treated him like a pet character. In the 40 or so issues he wrote, Quentin was but a very small blip

    Morrison's pet students were Beak and Angel. And even then... not really.
