Glob has been voted the least favorite hero by CBR. What is Brisson thinking of ? Does he want to pull the sales for New Mutants down because of his fondness for Glob?

Poor Glob. He's only in one issue out of two and is yet hated like he, and not the X-Gate-Keepers, was the responsible for the X-kids not getting more panel time.
X-teams should have more characters like him, who don't look human at all.
So far the only ones are Apocalypse and Chamber if he removes his scarf.
Even Domino (once she's healed) and Pierrot&Pierrette can pass for human albinos.
Bringing back the old, killing the young: that's the Marvel way
Agreed. A small portion of the population of fans actually contribute to a site like this. We're rabid fanbois/girls and our opinions tend to be on the extreme fringes of the average bear.
This being said, I do still love the chicken farmer Glob pictures. Too bad he didn't stay out there with the pen. :P
Well Glob can kick rocks. I'd rather see Tabby reconnect with Wiz-kid, Rusty and Skids on Earth, while the main gang hang out in space.
I kinda wish that she'd used more traditional mind control, to the same effect, causing Mondo to jerk upright and utter the words she 'sends' him, instead of just telepathically telling him. It would feel more true to her base concept, than just another telepath (which the X-peeps have a ton of, already).
I agree with the notion that the X-franchise could use more 'mutant' looking characters, like Nightcrawler, Genesis, Bling!, Mercury, Nature Girl, etc. getting a focus.
Just not Glob, 'cause I can't stand him. (Or the much more human-looking Quentin.) Rockslide occupies the same narrative niche as Glob, and is, IMO, much less annoying. Man, so many intriguing characters introduced in Morrison's run. Ernst. Slick. Polymer. Mentat. Keratin. Negasonic. And we get Quentin and Glob, over and over. Ugh.
Looking at the poll so far, Rictor is the most popular New Mutant after the first batch of core New Mutants.
Hope we will see more Rictor in future New Mutant episodes, yeah, I know he's in Excalibur but I don't feel he belongs there.
Although he became more of an X-Men main character or senior mutants as I like to call them, Legion is actually my favourite new mutants character. he is one of Claremont's most genius and most diabolical creations to date.
My favorite New Mutants are Surge, Wind Dancer, Magik, Dani Moonstar, and Sunspot. People completely forget about the second generation of New Mutants they deserved better.
