Superheroes with Illegitimate children

[baxer]

What it actually means is the product of an affair. If Prince Charles and Camilla had a baby while he was still married to Diana, that child would be illegitimate, and not entitled to be an heir to the throne. As it was, no kids came along because of that affair, she was too old to have more kids by the time they did marry.

Not always, if a man/woman has a kid and doesn't recognize/abandon the kid. For men sometimes they don't even know they have a kid, as the mother run away or didn't told.
If people aren't married, but the parent assumes responsability with supporting the kidI don't see it as illegitimate. Wedlock is just a formalization.

three, the Stepford Cuckoos

She didn't even knew about them, because somebody stole her eggs and made them against their will

You have no idea. Hercules was the original rock star. You have to remember that Hercules lived on Earth, a very popular demi-god amongst men, before his death and subsequent apotheosis as an immortal god. It wasn't just the 12 Labors or hanging out with Jason as a member of the Argonauts that kept him entertained. Hercules really got around!

In the myths Hercules had countless children, most out of wedlock. Take for example the story of Thespius, a king who had 50 beautiful daughters. Thespius hired Hercules to hunt a lion or other beast (a different lion than the Nemean one of legend). Thespius really admired Hercules and wanted grand children of his blood. So he told Hercules that as part of his compensation for hunting the lion he could lay with one of his daughters. The hunt, as it turns out, lasted 50 nights, and each night Hercules was visited by one of Thespius' daughters. When it was all said and done, Thespius' 50 daughters bore Hercules 50 sons. You read that correctly -- 50! Just add their names to the several dozen other children that Hercules sired.

I seriously doubt that Hercules knows the names of all of his children. He's kind of like Zeus in that regard. Like father, like son, I guess.

Sing it with me now:

"Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone"

I know all about Hercules in the olden times. I meant that it did not seem like he spent much time in the mortal world between then and the modern day. Maybe there are stories and I just missed them, but it seems the Marvel version of Herc spent most of his time in Olympus until the modern age of heroes started and he started coming to Earth once again.

Both Charles Xavier and Magneto fathered Illegitimate children. Xavier fathered Legion and Magneto fathered Laura Dane.

Like I said. I find it funny we haven’t seen children of Starfox and modern Hercules yet.

They should be poster children on the effectiveness of using condoms to prevent unwanted births.

Who is Rhodey’s child now?

In his first solo series it was told by his girlfriend to his parents that she was carrying his kid.

In the final issue of the series the writer mentioned that was a loop hole that was not going to be dealt with since the book was ending.

So we don't know if she was telling the truth or not. So far we have not seen a kid run around yet.

I think all 5 of the Cuckoo are alive again.

oh is that recent or has that been the norm for a while?

yes (well without Emma's approval/consent, the kids never have a say in the matter)

Apocalypse's son William Rolfson. Called Holocaust in The Age of Apocalypse and Genocide in the regular 616.

Bruce Banner (Hulk’s offspring Tannasee Rapachini, Kiro Hala, Skar) and while it’s a stretch calling Constrictor a hero, he did have a son out of wed lock who took over the Constrictor identity.

I can't remember if the thing with Scorpion chick was ever resolved but Hulk and Caiera were married when they had Kiro Hala and Skarr.

I skimmed through the thread real quick; did anyone mention Carol Danvers’ very bizarre pregnancy and subsequent birth of her own well, rapist, Marcus? Really REALLY bad story. Really bad.

Yeah, there's a reason people don't talk about this story much.

[Hypestyle]

in the last 20 years, was there an adult child of Namor's introduced, who ended up being an adversary?

[JudicatorPrime]

Didn't Mentor basically father the entire population of Titan, with the exception of his wife/consort?

[JudicatorPrime]

Have the author(s) of this story -- and the editor(s) who signed off on it -- received a psychiatric evaluation yet?

It's not rape, it's enhanced consent!

*cough*

The most well known example of writers not really thinking things through, but not the worst and sadly, not the most recent either
