Quicksilver Appreciation

[FuzzyBlueElf]

The place where we can discuss Pietro Maximoff, our favorite Speedster!



Powers & Abilities: Quicksilver is a mutant capable of moving and thinking at superhuman speeds. Originally he was only capable of running at the speed of sound but exposure to the High Evolutionary's Isotope E made it possible for the character to run at supersonic speeds of up to Mach 10 and resist the effects of friction, reduced oxygen, and kinetic impact while moving at super-speeds (In other words he doesn't need any damn Goggles!). Pietro's speed allows him to perform feats such as create cyclone-strength winds; run up walls and cross bodies of water. It has been revealed that one of the reasons for his abrasive and impatient personality is that it seems to him that the rest of the world is moving in slow motion and that he is constantly waiting for it to catch up. As he once explained, "Have you ever had a day where you are at the ATM and you are in a hurry because you're running late but the person in front of you doesn't know how to use the ATM and they're taking forever? Now imagine what it must be like to spend every day surrounded by people who don't know how to use the ATM."

His first appearance was in 1963's Classic X-Men #4, along side his sister, Scarlet Witch:

I agree, he belongs with the X-men more with the Avengers, I cannot name any awesome friendships he had whilst he was on that team or even what the other Avengers think about him. I do like the Avengers and X-men being integrated but he really doesn't belong there, there's no real ties for him there.

You could say I was pretty Quick with this thread I love all of Magneto's kids but Polaris and Quicksilver have always been my favourites.

And for the lulz, non-616 Pietro in Excalibur.

Lul, Chunksilver.

It was #3 not #4

RIP 1610 Quicksilver. He was revealed to be dead in X-Men Blue #12.

I have the issue of Ultimates in which Kang stabs him, and then he runs to Wanda's grave and dies. Is this the same death, or another one?

[teapartyofthedead]

I was also disappointed by that. So much potential plot gone. I was looking forward to him having a very interesting chat with Magneto.

Another death. Bunn brought him back early on in X-Men Blue (though with no explanation of how he was alive) and this issue revealed that Mothervine can have lethal effects on some mutants and he had died off-panel due to that. Kinda raises the question of what was the point in bringing him back only to kill him off-panel though.

And now that he's in All-New X-Factor, I feel like Pietro is home:

Have to say I'm loving PAD's take on Quicksilver. Every word is just right. He's my favourite character in ANXF so far.
