Thanks Jeff. I totally missed that bit of information. I had naively thought that it was all done in one series and that they sure did change artists and writers alot! (Maybe I shouldn't admit to being this dopey, but I find shame overrated). This does explain the changes in tone and the jumping from one storyline to the other. I haven't minded those things because the arc does all tie together, but it's definitely noticeable.
Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

Like I need a hole in my head
About Madelyne Pryor:
After Jean's death, Cyclops meets and marries and has a child with Madeline Pryor. Then Jean comes back, and Mr. Summers dumps her and the kid without a backward glance to get back into Jean's pants. Cad.
One thing to note about that is Maddy is Jean's double - later revealed to be a clone made by Sinister. I think that just adds a whole nother level of creepiness on Scott's part.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Christ, Snacky, how could I have forgotten to mention that? It's huge. Thanks.

I may have to seize the cat.
Snacky and ita - that was the part of it that really creeps me out. The other bit just convinces me more and more of what an asshole Scott is; that is creeeeepy.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
X2 was on HBO last night.
Remembered I really liked the movie. But biggest kick was COLOSSUS! Only in it for a moment, but I was all "Go, Pete! Go! YAHH!!"
Aimee calls him the "chunk-chunk-chunk" (sound of him transforming to Organic Steel!) Guy.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

When I saw it in the theatre, I think that moment got a bigger audience reaction than any other part of the movie.
All my classic X-Men comic reading has made me want to re-watch the movies, but I still have lots of comics left to go.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I really only know Colossus from the arcade game. I had no idea he was such a fan favorite. Why is he so cool?

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
