Oliver's Option

Okay so... still in X-men brainrot. I'm sorry if you followed me for some other fandom - at the moment this is all I can think about. I imagine it'll go away once X-men '97s season ends in May. But in the mean time I'm back reading X-men comics and thinking about my long time OC Oliver Croix. Back in 2017 I rewrote his story and it's super long and detailed and if you want to read it it's over here

So what is this? Well this is just something that's been rolling around in my head for a bit now. When I talk about Oliver's origin's I alway cite that he used to be a girl named Drake that looked like a panther but somewhere along the way I made him a boy that resembles a Siamese cat (for some reason). And I looked it up and it turns out that's not true. He doesn't have the coloring of a Siamese cat AT ALL! The only thing I got sort of right were his eyes. Siamese cat's actually have dark faces and ash blond bodies - so I tried the correct color palette on him... I'm not crazy about it. Which is probably what happened 20 years ago when I picked his 'basic' palette.

Next we have what he would've looked like if he kept 'Drake's' colors. Trying to find anything about who she was on my drives was... a task. Her story is disjointed to say the least. I wrote it when I was 18 and was surprised to find it was an 'enemies to lovers' plot. Drake and Nightcrawler did not like each other at all when they first met. They nearly come to blows several times over basically nothing burgers and I could slap 18 year old me for ever thinking Kurt would fight a woman over petty shit. In the comics he never actively fights a woman - just disarms them and evades, occasionally he'll find away to knock them out but I don't think I ever seen a panel of Kurt just straight up decking a woman in the face. If you find one let me know. ANYWAY Drake was a pain in the ass, just like her dad and no one ever gave her boundaries except Nightcrawler and that's why she fell for him. She proceeds to make his life more difficult until they have a heart-to-heart blah blah blah - it's all very stupid. My best guess as to why she looks like a panther, because her father is Sabertooth. I wanted to keep in the animal scheme and or some reason didn't pick a lynx or lion. Drake's color were legit black hair and black skin. That's it. Oh and she could shoot fire from her hands for some reason. Current Oliver uses magic to do that so I guess I did keep something from her.

The combo is just me goofing off BUT I really like it! Looking at regular Oliver the word 'basic' is perfect for it. It's very blah isn't it? I'm seriously considering making 'combo' his new look. Well his 'newer' look. I just finished a comic featuring his basic look - it's not too late to go in and give him an update. The dark ears really pop and I actually like having his forehead and eye area being dark like the Siamese version. Not sure about the green eyes (his third eye is green so I think I'll keep his blue on blue eyes) For a cat-boy he doesn't really have any stripes or markings so he might get dark hands and feet or light hair on his chest. The lips are a winner. 

What do you think?

Betraying the US government for tricking me into destabilize an already shitty part of town.

Oh my God...

Yo... Zsen is 'bout it.

Seriously thought someone put me in the comic for a second.

My girl said "I like your face, let's smash after we do this dumb mission shit"

She even looks a little like my oc Oliver (brown and cat-like)

‘Scuse me, pardon, comic nerd here 👋🏾

Those little ‘kurtlings’ are actually called ‘bamfs’. If I remember correctly they are somewhat magical creatures that take the form of whomever they imprint on. Particularly Neyaphim folk like Kurt and his father Azazel - yes Azazel has his own bamfs, they are red.

In recent comics they show up after Kurt dies saving Hope Summers. They hang around the X-mansion stealing various parts, Logan’s alcohol and generally causing mischief. The various things they steal eventually becomes a portal heaven and a whole thing involving Azazel taking over heaven and hell ensues.

Through a very cool magic shabang Kurt is brought back to life with some of the bamfs combining to become his new body. Apparently Kurt is the only one who can hear what they actually say. Everyone else hears cute little chirps and purrs but the bamfs have been known to encourage him murder people.

Is it wrong that my reaction to this

Is "Kurt, are these all your kids?! You slut!"

Omg that's my phone wallpaper right now lmao

Tho actually Kurt has always had little munchkin versions of himself. He gives his girlfriend in the original comics a little handmade BAMF doll of himself so she isn't lonely while he's on missions

As for the context of this panel I honestly don't know. They could in fact be little Kurtlings lol

Remember It

X-men '97 went for the throat and they got my man Gambit ;_;

I will remember him in his slutty crop top always. I have never come across anyone who doesn't like Remy. Logan, Scott, Xavier and Magneto each have a group of people that just don't like the characters but love for Gambit is universal.

I actually drew this before my Nightcrawler piece but was so excited that Nightcrawler finally showed up I put his pic out first. Little did I know that episode 5 was Gambit's last... for now. I know nobody ever stays dead in Marvel but it still hurts - especially the way he went out. At least he graduated to Omega level beforehand.

Until we meet again, love. Coc-- *ahem* Rock on!
