    Default Wasn't the whole Monet and Sabertooth pairing kind of disgraceful?

    It never made any sense why someone as conceited, spoiled, and self righteous as Monet would ever entertain a Sabretooth. Very odd.

    He was a different guy. Inverted Sabertooth was a total Dad. Very easy to see the appeal, especially for a wild princess type like Monet.

    Monet drawn to a father type? Don't sound right. More likely to go lesbian than that approach.

    Yeah, she should get down with someone who's a handsome, skilled badboy with a heart of gold and proven leadership skills. You know, like Hellion. They would be the most insufferable couple.

    Nope i enjoyed it. they had a lot of chemistry.

    And it made perfect sense why Monet given your description would fall for someone Cunning, Strong, And with an edge. Inverted Sabretooth was the one good thing that came out of that horrid spell. I was sad to see it reversed to be honest.

    This. Kind of moot now.

    But for sake of discussion.

    Under Bunn, I found nothing disgraceful about it.

    Monet has always had an edge to her & Invert Creed made sense. The only issues is that he needed to be drawn better instead of hideous. Because honestly, I am tired of beauty & the beast pairings -especially when it's always the guy having to be a beast & women learning to love them regardless but never the reverse.

    Thankfully I got a Cronet Commission for Jeanty some years back with sexier Creed.

    Monet is the type who needs someone with that darker edge to keep her interested. Synch was her first love, and the best guy she was with. But I didn't see that lasting forever.

    I think all the X-Factor pairings were more disgraceful since it was based on losers lusting for her, and her boss pumping & dumping her.


    Creed was the next best guy she had after Synch. He was a good guy trying to do better at the time, he clearly cared about Monet rather than just being thirsty for her like Darwin & Strong Guy. But sadly the ship got short changed due to editorial interference and cancelation.

    These 2 were my Marvel version of Buffy and Angel. The latter Invert Creed was modelled after.

    Under Pak, it was disgraceful because Creed was back to being a doofus and the relationship didn't have the nuance Bunn seemed to be going for. But nothing in his series had any nuance. I theorize that book was just to launch his Hulk book, but then he was stuck with the characters afterwards and just wrote whatever until he didn't have to anymore.

    Monet being attracted to a 140 yr old rapist/serial killer is about as disgraceful as it gets. What's next? She finds Miss Sinister attractive for her quips and style? Lol.

    No different than any pairing with Wolverine. Angel, Mystique, or Magneto.

    So still not seeing the issue.

    Other than folks who don't like Creed. Which is fine, but still doesn't mean it's disgraceful.

    I wonder when Creed was being sentenced to the pit at the beginning of Hickman’s run, he was so angry because he wouldn’t be able to stay on Krakoa and hook up with Monet some more.

    Magneto? He has substance, honor, merit, and credibility. He basically is responsible for molding the New Mutabts generation...went out of his way for Kitty Pryde and especially Rogue. Sabretooth is a psychotic maniac who has a Wolverine look except he's taller and more bloodlusted. Why on earth would someone with bratty standards and conceited ways like Monet find that attractive magically after years of being different? I mean you got a better chance of selling Domino being drawn to him than Monet..is she even 20 yes old yet ? Lol. This is wild.

    Under Pak it was awful, but I kinda liked the overall direction Bunn was taking Sabertooth and Monet!


    Also didn't she date Madrox and Strong Guy...the girl hasn't always had the best taste, Everett being the exception!

    Jamie having an unwitting threesome with her and Siren while watching television in his basement remains the funniest thing Peter David ever wrote.

    I’ve known hot girls with her age and rich background, who go for skeevy guys, old enough to be their granddaddy’s like that for a while. Obviously not rapist, and Axis inverted supervillains like Creed. But you get the idea.
