Start at :55?

Nope. From Wikipedia:

“In 2005, Marvel killed Northstar in three separate continuities within the space of one calendar month. Between February 16 and March 9, 2005, versions of Northstar were killed in the Earth-616-based Wolverine #25, and in X-Men: Age of Apocalypse and X-Men: The End (a possible story of the X-Men’s final days; Northstar was one of many to die in the series), both of which were set in alternate timelines. Northstar did not stay dead long in Marvel’s primary continuity, as he is resurrected in Wolverine #26.”

Okay. If we can only do three, that’s fine too. I really want to watch DS9 tonight. :slight_smile:

OK, I guess I just assumed that. He came out after I’d stopped reading comics.

There was a subplot where he adopted a baby with AIDS… who died.

So you weren’t far off. :confused:

“I summon THE FULL POWER OF THE STORM!

Melodramatic much?

“Who would do this to a school?”

Come on, there have to be some students who got F’s, right? Xavier couldn’t just pass everyone, could he?

I like Colossus. They took his character in some really interesting directions.

He was dead for a bit (he died to cure the Legacy Virus (mutant AIDS)), but he’s back now and somehow merged with the Juggernaut, who he turns into sometime inadvertently, like the Hulk.

I love Colossus.

Huh. I think I need to check on that.

Oh, and I forgot the time he left the X-Men to become one of Magneto’s Acolytes.

Lightning bolt to the camera? That seems like a measured response. :slight_smile:

I love how the X-Men insist that they just want to be treated like everyone else, unless they feel like breaking someone out of jail. Then they just do whatever the hell they feel like.

I love that video.

I’m glad they said he wasn’t a mutant. The movie version changed him too much. Of course, I don’t think they ever mention the demon Cyttorak, so they skip some details.

Or the fact that he was Xavier’s half-brother… still, he was one of the few things I liked about that movie.

When the original movie came out, I watched it with a friend who didn’t really know Marvel. Afterward, we saw an X-Men game in the arcade, and I pointed out the interrelations of the various characters. He said, “Sounds like everyone’s related. No wonder they’re all mutants.” :smiley:

It seems to me that a Juggernaut that doesn’t who he is or what he’s doing is even more dangerous than one who does…

Good work, Jean.
