THE X-MEN ARE MORE THAN 1 CHARACTER!!!

FUCK YOU & YOUR FAVES!

THE X-MEN ARE MORE THAN 1 CHARACTER!

Don't watch the show or read the comics if you can't handle seeing other characters shine. There were only 10 episodes, but somehow, YOUR FAVE needed to be in every scene?

alicent is a “childbride at 15” and suddenly her growth is stunted forever and she can’t be held accountable for her actions but luke was “nearly a man” when he died at 13 so therefore he deserved to die and has to answer for the “sin” of taking his uncles eye out? mkay.

A very silly little explanation on Cyclops's powers. This is to me quintessential marvel narration of the 60s. It's silly and goofy and fun. Stan Lee's footnotes (like wanting to use cyclops as a heat lamp), a reference to forbush man, etc. It's just so silly (X-Men #43):

Every time someone on Twitter acts like Cyclops doesn't have emotions because he's 'badass' and 'omg he's so cool, he doesn't give a fuck,' a star falls from the sky.

It's me, I'm the one making the stars fall from the sky, on these people's houses.

"To me, my X-Men."

Hey, all! So, the trailer for, "X-Men '97," came out four days ago, and for some reason, the trailer sparked controversy in the fandom. The main controversy surrounded Morph, who in the revival will be nonbinary. Which just makes sense for their character, honestly. Of course a character whose gender is fluid because of their ability to shapeshift wouldn't conform to one of the binary genders. But the controversy came from conservative X-Men fans, which in itself is an oxymoron. There are no conservative X-Men fans. At least, not real ones. Because fans of these characters and their stories would understand that they have always been stand-ins for oppressed minority groups fighting for equality. The metaphors may be a bit dated in our modern world, but still, when used well, they are still effective.

I don't understand how you can watch or read any story in the X-Men's history and not understand, let alone SEE the themes in play. Humans calling Mutants slurs, throwing things at them in public, calling for them to be hanged hearkens back to the Civil Rights movement of the 60s. Bobby Drake's parents asking him, "Have you tried not being a mutant?" in, "X-Men 2," is similar to parents asking their gay children, "Have you tried not being gay?" some of it is subtext, but most of it is hammered over your head, "THIS IS AN ALLEGORY." Not subtext. Just text.

The other controversy stemmed from someone on Twitter stating that, "Cyclops would have a Blue Lives Matter," sticker plastered on his bumper." And um. NO. Scott Summers is lot of things. Bootlicker is not one of those things. Scott is as anti-cop as they come.

To end this little rant, I'll just post some of my favorite Cyclops moments from comics!

"Cyclops was right."

ever since twisters, my life literally got changed by Glen Powell. I was that girl who was really obsessed with Sebastian Stan (still do) and I can be obsessed with two men which is both Sebastian and Glen.

I NEED THEM IN A MOVIE TOGETHER!! WHETHER ITS GLEN AS CYCLOPS IN SECRET WARS OR THEM PLAYING A GAY COP IN THE SAME MOVIE!!

I would be falling to my knees!!
