I do believe Batman is a massive cunt for not killing the Joker. So there's that.

And also, this isn't all that black/white. I'm just saying that Marvel used to treat Cyke as a hero, he was to the X-Men what Superman and Cap are to the JLA and the Avengers. Now they try to pitch him as a bad guy.

I liked the Cyke from back in the 90's, he was paragon, but also knew when to go all out. He did kill before, didn't he reduced Sinister to bones in X-Factor?

It's sad that this is the current state of Marvel editorial and "comics journalism"

So do I, but I still love how he changed from >>81455606 to >>81455666.

He's trained to lead Professor X's army, not to be the next Professor X. That was supposed to be Jean. But now she's dead and there are only a few hundred mutants left, requiring the ultimate child soldier to step up and take charge of the survivors while they're vulnerable. The rest of his stories up until AvX was him fighting a losing war the only way he knows how. But he keeps losing, so he keeps needing to escalate until he's got a group called the "extinction team" to fight off threats.

In the '90s the mutants were dying off from "the legacy virus" floating around and killing random mutants, The Age of Apocalypse happened, Professor X (the X-Men's leader) became an evil psychic god-like being(Onslaught) and betrayed the X-Men, Wolverine died, and then Cyclops was possessed by evil (Apocalypse) and vanished for several months, and there was this one stupid time jump before a relaunch of the (all new) teams. Not to mention the movie tie-ins fucking over the comics. It was a bad scene, man.

I'm so glad that pic lineup includes the "Erik-the-Red" disguise.
There was this one story in the '90s where Erik-the-Red shows up again and kidnaps a few X-Men, he's using robots and power dampener collars to put them in chains and cells in this secret base and he torchers Gambit to get some sort of a confession from him... etc... etc...
You know, classic supervillian stuff.
So one of the hostages is Angel (Warren Worthington III) and Warren knows there IS no "Erik-the-Red", so he goes into this dialog about how he knows it's really Scott under that mask and how they all knew it was only a matter of time before Scott cracked, and how everyone could see it coming...
... Now, at the time ... I thought that was simply a ridiculous scenario.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.
>>
>>81468438
don't get me wrong, I love the classic look, but the x on Scott's face represents what's going on

he's fighting for an ideal no one believes, and you can see in his face that he will always show support for his x-men no matter what

I get the whole visual "different Scott now" costume change but the visor is a technical limitation of his powerset, without that Ruby Quartz on his face (there's a dirty Steven Universe joke in there somewhere) he can't control his optic blasts, and last I looked you can't weave a crystal mineral into a fabric face-cowl. It bugs me that they've never even tried to explain how that would work.
Don't get me wrong, I hear what you're saying. But it may be a look that says;
"Forget my face, focus on the symbol."
but his whole thing was that his powers forced him to hide his face. So it doesn't work as envisioned sacrifice symbolically.

If you want to get back into it I suggest you find the All New X-Men softcover volume 1, read that until you've had enough Bendis (by about vol.3) then grab up Extraordinary X-Men from the first issue on and ease in that way.

Or you could just learn from our mistakes and go read Spiderman from now on.

First X-Men movie was in 2000, no?

Too bad Generation X started the trend of bad X movies, I'm not sure why they never tried just following the comics. That Emma was perfect, though.

>Wolverine died, and then Cyclops was possessed by evil (Apocalypse) and vanished for several months
Nnnnnot sure if 2000... even up to early 2000s, there were some few decent stories. Dream's End was pretty cool, and Colossus died like a boss ending the Legacy Virus. (Glad to have him back, though.) Things got REALLY bad starting with morrison.

I've read somewhere he wore #4 only once or something.

Didn't she have like a nervous breakdown one of the times her students died?

And then also again when she fought zombie Hellions in I want to say Necrosha?

My biggest problem with Emma post-Gillen is that nobody actually wrote the serious, tragic side of her - she's a high-class elitist sardonic debutante, to be sure, but she's all of that to hide her sad past and massive flaws. It's a mask. When written well, she's one of the most interesting X-Men.

Due to the necessity of actually having to write her competently, it's understandable no current writer wants to use her.
>>
>>81470339
Yes, that was what made Schism dumb.

If it had happened during Morrison that would be fine but at that point the X-Men probably spent a solid two years in-universe barely surviving extinction, including attacks from literally every single villain ever, including the dead ones, twice.

You can't go "well the kids deserve better" when you had a bus full of kids EXPLODE last year, Logan! Jesus fucking Christ that entire mega-arc is fucking stupid. Logan would be the first to realize that sometimes you need to do bad things to survive, and that doing bad things doesn't make you irredeemable.

Sinister faking his death and sending Scott and Alex to Xavier's X-Men. Scott wants to bang Jean, Alex hates him because Scott being torn apart between Jean and Sinister caused Sinister's "death".
It had strong line-up, Scott, Alex, Malice possessing redhead that isn't totally Maddie, Sabretooth and Sauron.

Oh, children, #4 was the X-TERMINATORS outfit, prominently featured in the first two dozen or so issues of X-Factor vol. 1, when they had the (actually pretty brilliant) idea of posing as an anti-mutant team (like Ghostbusters but for genefreaks) in order to be able to covertly help mutants who got themselves exposed. It was run by Cameron Hodge before he went Right.
>>
>>81470652
Whoops, X-Factor Investigation was the anti-mutant name, while X-Terminators was the name of the fake terror cell Scott and co. created.

There was a lot of triple identities in that run, it got... confusing.
>>
>>81470647

Heard Elixir came back just to get killed off again, which sucks. Having a healer around really explained how everyone could recover from severe injuries.

>it doesn't because plot

How does a sniper shot to the head kill an Omega-level mutant with the power to manipulate organic matter? Unless it was a literal (as in, totally instantaneous) instant kill he should have been able to regenerate anything.

Also poor show, his girlfriend died by being snipered in the head. That's just mean, Marvel.

To be fair, they crossed the line over ten times with Wolverine's healing factor in the 2000s.
>>
>>81471012
As one anon said, movie Wolverine loses healing factor, comics Wolverine loses healing factor and dies. Pity they didn't make company-wide crossover. God knows there are enough people with ties to Wolverine.

The Fruity Icepop isn't old and wise in his gayness,
he's old and wise in his in-the-closet-ness.
Anole has had more gay experience than him.
Bobby needs to find his game now. Maybe he can ask Jean for help with that?

I think Bobby should really bring Warren in for the conversion, he's expressed interest and guys that attractive are used to getting hit on a lot by all sorts.

Any idea what gay thoughts Jean implanted into Scott's brain during all those years together?
I mean, it IS her hobby according to common /co/ headcannon...
Maybe that really was a red corset in that Erik-the-Red outfit?

Ah, Age-o'-Apocalypse version of Scott ... The only Jean-brain-tampering-free version of Scott that I have a pic of.
Without Jeanie's evil influence I'm sure Bobby was pure as the driven snow in that reality, right?
>>
>>81471660
At least it was well done. Yeah there's been soap opera and gay/lesbians before, but not for shock/pandering that hard, and yeah, better written. I didn't bat an eyelash over Anole, or Rictor going bi for Shatterstar.

I'll admit I didn't follow that much Alpha Flight when Northstar came out of the closet, since it got published on and off in my country back then.

You know, when Beast said he was gay it was what? 2 issues before he admitted that he was kidding, all in the same Morrison run, so how is this even comparably the same thing?
It's not as if Bendis wrote a "just kidding" line into any issues before moving on to the next X-Men adventure.
And Christ, if it was really that important that you get to vicariously live out ICEMAN'S sex life, you've got bigger issues than your homophobia to worry about.
