Since there are other couples appreciation threads, should I also make a Marrow/Cannonball appreciation thread?

Don't know about his relationship. Just my two cents about the character - I never liked Marrow, maybe the writers didn't do her any good. However, since X-Force vol.4 started, I have grown fond of her! She's raving mad and hilariuos! I just hope she doesn't get killed off any time soon. She has made me laugh so many times these past issues... Her comments are spot on, I think Spurrier does justice to her.

Cannonball/Marrow is from just after Onslaught (over ten years ago), good stuff (the relationship, not Onslaught)

Storm cut her heart out once and she is still alive, I'd say she is here to stay

I for one am glad to see Marrow back in the X-men's world, it does feel as if she has been away far too long. She causes friction wherever she goes, and her background as a morlock gives her a different outlook to some of the other mutants on any given team. I did prefer her when she had less control over her power, with bones jutting out of her body and giving her a less conventional appearance, and her personality seemed more flaring then as well.

I do enjoy her in X-force so far though, and am interested to see just exactly what happened to her before the current X-force started.

Funny how it's the exact opposite for me so far. I really liked her back in the day and was bummed when she disappeared when Claremont came back on board and I've been hoping for her return ever since but now that she's back I wish she wasn't. I just can't stand that hyperactive annoyance that Spurrier depicts her as. But hopefully she'll grow on me or Spurrier tones it down with her since I really want to enjoy this X-Force because it's one of the few books I read, it's X-Force, I've waited so long for Marrow to return and Spurrier's Legacy run was phenomenal. I really don't want to drop it even if it does feature Fantomex (ugh) and Marrow annoys me a lot
