Astonishing X-Men #61 (2004)

[kurtty-drabbles]

Salve Mun and my best wishes for tomorrow !

I'm just here to give a shout-out to X-Men Evolution's Nightcrawler: He isn't comicbook Nightcrawler (what do you expect they're not even the same age) but right now it's what I like most about him.

Even at 17 years old, he told off and cut ties with Mystique in the finale of the show because he realized she was only out for herself, a toxic parental figure and a child groomer after what she pulled on Rogue to revive Apocalypse in the previous season.

This 17 year old kid is more self aware, mature and has more self respect than comicbook Nightcrawler who is twice his age and has more life experience yet only gets a mommy issue plotline to end the previous X-Men era.

Hi nonny

I feel no one wanted to say this in the past bc comic Kurt Semed better but evo Kurt is the best Kurt (losing only to Kurt D and Kurt Wagoner)

Dude doesn't objective his sister.

He cut contact with Mystique

Pines over Kitty. (Correct and in my heart, they got together)

Is not a racist cliche of Roma people nor inflicts such cliches on Roma people.

Dude is likeable.

His gf is not his sister. (Would have been better if it was Kitty)

And his flaws are consistent. Truly an icon

Let's talk more about the best Kurts.

Kurt D

Evo Kurt

Kurt Wagoner

Mutants of the multiverse

Xavier edition part 1

X-Treme X-Men is a goldmine of alternate Chucks, seeing as the entire premise is hunting evil Xaviers across the multiverse. Here's Lord Xavier, Witch King of Gha-No-Shah. I assume The Wizard of Oz doesn't exist in this universe, or maybe he just doesn't care about originality.

This is the 'good' Xavier who recruits the multiversal X-Men for a Chuck Hunt (way better name for X-Manhunt IMO.) He's just a head in a ... bottle. Not a jar for some reason. Looks more like a goldfish bowl to me. This is his gig and his fault, naturally. Joining him is Dazzler, Logan - husband of Hercules, Emmeline Front, and a 14 year old Kurt Waggoner. Some bozo boyfriend of Dazzler's shows up a lot, but this is about Chucks.

Anyway, he and a hundred other Xaviers got together to do something good - to save an entire planet. Unfortunately, they broke the multiverse. Uh oh. Their actions caused the rise of 10 super evil Xaviers, who are also fucking around with multiverse stuff. He's like 'let's kill them!' and Dazzler is like 'the X-Men don't kill' but they follow him anyway.

Here we have a mutant circuit of sorts - a hundred Xavier brains hooked up together to achieve, uh, multiverse travel. When you're just a head all you can do is dream, and break stuff accidentally. Or get together with a hundred different versions of yourself and form a Chuck hive mind. Chuck city, bitch.

This, obviously, is Eldritch Octopus Chuck. It doesn't say a lot, preferring to let its actions do the talking. Also, it probably doesn't have vocal cords. Then again, the Xaviers that are just a head should have the same limitations. Whatever, it's a Chucktopus!

These aren't Xaviers. They're the self appointed gods of this place, a warped version of the X-Men - Storm, Namor, Iceman, Sabertooth plus Thor for some reason. They're massive dicks and rule with an iron fist plus lots of melodrama. They're opposed by...

Xavier and Magnus, freedom fighters! This world is an anachronism stew, with weird gods and steampunk. This Xavier has a body, which I'm sure Magneto appreciates. After head in a bottle Xavier betrays the heroic X-Men, these two swooped in to save the day.

This freedom fighter Xavier has a strict code of telepathic consent. Just kidding, he reads their minds immediately. At least he's honest about it, and he wants to be friends. No strings attached, I'm sure. I like his cute little goggles and Magneto's Spartan-style helmet.

They take them to Utopia! I wonder what it is with naming very precarious dystopian strongholds Utopia. Maybe it's the Greek usage, meaning no place. Maybe it's ironic. Or maybe there was a Utopia in 616 so everywhere has one too. Probably the last one. Reed defers to Chuck here, interesting. Looks like the Gods/X-Men took over the whole world except for this place. You gotta admire the ambition if nothing else. Chuck has plans.

Hmm. I think the multiverse might have a Xavier problem. This one wants them to kill the other one. He's a head in a bottle - I feel like they could just smash the bottle or something pretty easily. The X-Men aren't being given much of a choice here, surely they can't leave this Xavier-led Victorian society to die, can they?

Next time - find out which Xaviers are full of shit! Nazi Xavier! Alien Xaviers! Unethical telepathy! (Obviously.) And more!

X-Treme X-Men v.2 #1

[basicbibitch]

I have a Nightcrawler Facebook group for anyone who uses it, done a poll recently for which Nightcrawler solo series is the best.

If link doesn't work it's called The Nightcrawler Fan Club (made in 2014 as there's probably multiple ones)

Why do all the Kurt's DIE so fucking much????? It goes to show that the writers don't give a shit abt him or characters that don't have traditionally powerful mutations

When we first see darkholme, 616 Kurt is dead and then we meet little waggoner and then! Dead! Fucking dead!! And THEN darkholme himself gets offed!! What!the!fuck!!!!!! Kurt deserves better goddamnit! He's not just some fucking plot device you can throw away when your bored. He's literally one of the best characters possible and y'all just toss him aside bc he's merciful and won't take a life (except darkholme lmao)

Like?? Damn just let me have Kurt if your not gonna use him then, hand him over, @dave cockrum your oc is mine now

[deathdefyinglifeleaps]

I would pay so much money to read that book.
