Did CC not care for Iceman?

I think Claremont didn't really have an affinity for any of the original 5 except Scott and Jean

That isn't really unique to Claremont either. While I've enjoyed Bendis' Iceman, All-New is the Jeen show.

He loves Beast, but wasn't allowed to use him during his original run.

Since this is a CC thread, I just wanted it to go on record that I squealed like a small child when I saw Claremont's cameo as a senator in the Days of Future Past movie.

No, he also loved Beast but Beast was an Avenger when Claremont took over the book. Just look at X-Men Forever.

He wanted Beast for X-Treme X-Men too in 2001, but was outvoted by Morrison.

CC loved Jean, Scott, and Beast...hating Bobby and Warren.

Doop gets a title before him.

For what it's worth, Iceman had his own limited series back in the '80s. It was mediocre, but it existed.

I actually enjoyed that. Could be a little bias.. but it was pretty good.

He also had the Icons mini series. So he has Doop doubled up.
