A moment between Nighcrawler and his childhood best friend.

Gale Simone followed up on this more recently in the Domino Annual by Gale Simone. I was stunned. I didn't think anyone else was interested in this. There was a follow up in another Excalibur issue where adult Christian pays Adult Kurt a visit to the circus and apologizes to him.

Leah Willams, not Gail, I believe.
But you’re quite right, it’s an excellent call back.

He makes light of it, but Kurt must have had a very difficult life, despite being sheltered by the circus, human nature and children can be cruel. He was incredibly lucky to be found by Charles and to get a place with the team. Found family.

My favourite call back, the punchline to this joke from X-Men annual four.
The original joke.

The punchline in 2018.

Yes, and I'm for more call backs to the past if they are this funny.

Oh, those fabulous Excalibur days.
And I adore Emelia (and by extension, Margaret Rutherford, of course).

I’ve just checked the Wiki, Dai Thomas dates all the way back to ‘75, he’s so Gene Hunt, clearly ahead of his time.

I think Stefan worked as a roustabout, it takes a lot of background staff to run even a modest circus.
Jimaine ended up being a flyer with Kurt.

Wasn’t Stefan throwing knives?

I can’t remember, but it wouldn’t surprise me, as I said, lots of small circus staff pull multiple roles.

Alan Davis--the Nightcrawler GOAT creator IMO. He definitely showed him as the charming swashbuckler.

Only Kurt can be devilishly charming with is leg in plaster from hip to toe.

Absolutely excellent old school X-Men high jinks.
Though, I repeat, Peter, Kurt and Logan should not be let out with adult supervision.
Kurt and Pete is safe. Logan and Pete is usually safe. Kurt and Logan is sometimes safe but Pete-Kurt-Logan is always trouble.

Could have sworn I posted this already in the afternoon. Oh well...
