(Although this was not my first CBR username, my original was Vindicator)

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
Basically, I had some friends first call me a Go Go Boy after a night out at a bar where there were some male strippers.

It's the title of a song by the ethereal band Mira (see http://www.projekt.com ) which refers, I believe, to the name of a cat. I liked the song and I was looking for a new less-geeky name after having been Hourman originally. I liked the sound of it.

Used to be a lot of them, but there are a lot less these days (especially with reload coming up):

[And Conn, pleeeeeeeeease tell me you have copies of the X-Caption contest saved somewhere. I couldn't bear to see those lost forever.]They're all still up at the UXC site (as far as I know). If not, I got 'em on my comp.

[tangentman]

1. My screen name refers to a nickname a good friend gave me back in '96. At the time, I was notorious for jumping tracks in conversation. She often called me "tangent boy"--being an avid Legion fan then, I told her "tangent lad" fit me better. When I registered here the first time, I adopted that nick as my member name, eventually upgrading to "tangent man". :)

2. Right now I read EXILES, NEW X-MEN, and picked up UNCANNY X-MEN for the first time in years for Claremont story and Davis art. Who knows after "Reload" finishes?

3. Jeezus, do we have all day? Let's see...among many, LoTR trilogy, KILL BILL I, 28 DAYS LATER, PULP FICTION, DOOM GENERATION, John Waters films, FASTER, PUSSYCAT! KILL, KILL!, X2 (naturally!), PILLOW BOOK, NATURAL BORN KILLERS, SLEEPY HOLLOW and other Burton films.

6. So much that I actually give a Triple X ;)

[Lee in Limbo]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

My handle was chosen in a fit of desperation when I typed out those famous words 'Help! I'm restarting reading the X-Men after a <insert gawdawful number of years here> absence, and I can't figure out ANY of this stuff!' I chose it for the second generation of this very message board, back around the end of 98. I use it everywhere I go on the internet. And perhaps there really is something to taht bit about the power of a name, because I'm still living in Limbo all these years later. I should really do a rethink, methinks.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.

At the moment, I'm not reading any. But that's nothing new. I'm broke, and falling quite a ways behind on my collecting. Mind you, I have been weening of X-titles for a while now. I'm a bit of a dinosaur. But I still see stuff worth reading.

3. What is your favorite movie?

Hmmn. These days, I'd say Rear Window. Or maybe The 51st State. But I still love Blade Runner, and my Terry Gilliam films.

4. What music do you listen to?

These days, I've totally retrograded to music by guys from Genesis, mostly. It's weird. But threre really is a lot of the stuff, and it keeps me happy.

5. Tell us about you.

Sometime graphic artist, sometime writer, sometime artist, occasional songwriter, frequent seducer of girls who read comics. I know what I like.

6. Do you give a "X" about us

Of course I do. I just don't get out much. And frankly,if I didn't care, would I be here now? I mean, it's not like I'm reading a lot of comics I have to talk about at the moment.

[Jim Yost]

[QUOTE=Quarterwolf]Well Since we lost the old one I figure I should start a new one.

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
It's my name... not very creative, but ya know... it's mine.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.
Uncanny is the one I've been reading the longest, planning to check out Astonishing and adjectiveless.

3. What is your favorite movie?
Raiders of the Lost Ark

4. What music do you listen to?
Mostly Rock. Little bit of everything else, rap to country... just no Kenny G

5. Tell us about you.
Eh, 29, I make videos for bands, independent movies, that kinda thing, work graveyards for a living until the other stuff takes off.

6. Do you give a "X" about us
I'll get back to you on that.

[rawkusboi]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

Raw-Kus-Boi
Like Ruckus (making a noise) and boy/boi put together. I'm a mouthy little gob-sh**e so the name should really reflect that.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.

I did read GM's New X-men and NYX but since they've either finished or gone AWOL I currently read NO x-books (gasp!). I'll probably be getting the new PAD Madrox series. Looking forward to the Whedon penned "Astonishing..." but I don't think I'll get it monthly.

3. What is your favorite movie?

Sid N Nancy/Lord of the Rings/ The original Star Wars trilogy.

4. What music do you listen to?

All sorts... currently pop/RnB/electro/rock/hiphop etc. Everyone should love the Scissor Sisters, no really!

5. Tell us about you.

I'm a London (UK) based photographer/porn actor who lets his geeky need for comic books get in the way of his normal 9-5 job. I'm opinionated, argumentative and voted the most likely to "disagree with you just for fun". Don't take it personally, I like to be a paradigm for discussion. It's not my fault you all reply with swear words.

6. Do you give a "X" about us

I'm reconsidering my position currently. There are/were some here who I give many an xxx about but I expect some may not bother to return after this horrific forum wide massacre.

[tangentman]

Then by God we'll bury the dead and pioneer new trails at the "New" CBR!

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
nooocandy is what I use for everything when online. It's to keep away the men who offer you sweets.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.
Uncanny, Adjectiveless, Excalibur, Astonishing, Ultimate, Exiles- but I usually just flick thru the issues in shop and buy the trades when available. When I started reading New I found it easier to appreciate stories as a whole and this now applies for all others. Plus its a pain trying to get hold of comics in S. Wales- I've been let down by two internet companies and it's a half hour trip into a busy city to the nearest specialist store. Although I'll be living in said city ( Cardiff ) in a few months but prob still get trades.

3. What is your favorite movie?
The Usual Suspects- fantastic. Also like Empire Strikes Back, X2, Spider-man, Terminator 2, many more.

4. What music do you listen to?
Various stuff- Blink 182, Sum 41, old REM, sixties music, Franz Ferdinand, Keane, Snow Patrol, Pink and lots more.

5. Tell us about you.
I'm 20 at the mo, currently working as a lab tech for the next few months then off to Uni to pursue a career in Media. Was born in Birmingham, England, moved to South Wales about 7 years ago. I like having fun in any way possible. I'm always up for a laugh and friendly and open-minded.

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

[Vegetarian Goat]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
I did this comic once for my college paper called "Vegetarian Goat & Mr. Can", which had a goat eating grass in a field. Soon enough, a can comes up to the goat and tries to persuade the goat to eat him. The goat declines, saying he's a VEGETARIAN goat... and then there's a truck, and a squish, and things happen... i didn't think it was one of my best... but people seemed to like it. And it's fairly unique to me, so.. there it is.

I read almost every X-Title under the sun. And if i don't get it monthly, I pick it up at cons.

5. Tell us about you.
My name is Dan, i live in RI, and i got into comics in 5th grade because of the art, and i've been obsessed ever since. I'm an art student, concentrating in graphic design, and once i have a website worth it's salt, i'll post it up! :D
Oh yeah- i'm also the biggest Dazzler fan on the face of the planet. (I challenge anyone to contest me about it!)

6. Do you give a "X" about us

[RKO]

I loved Morrison's stint on the book. I'm currently enjoying X-statix.

[The Dosadi Experiment]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

My previous screen name was Miles Teg, but I got bored with that name, so now it's "The Dosadi Experiment". Where Miles Teg was a character from Dune series, written by Frank Herbert, The Dosadi Experiment is the actual title of one of Frank Herbert's books, it's a pretty snappy book, and Frank Herbert has a nice little scene in it where he makes fun of his masterpiece Dune.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.

I'm here because all the cool kids hang out here, and you serve excellent coffee... of course I'm here because I read X-books. Not nearly enough, since my list has been cut to less than a handful. Uncanny X-men and Excalibur are currently on my reading list, together with Astonishing X-men.

3. What is your favorite movie?

It changes every now and again, I can't really say that I have a favorite.

4. What music do you listen to?

Industrial, and I prefer the stuff that comes from Germany, but still sung in Englisch. Like Funker Vogt and Kein Mitleid Fur Die Mehrheid. But I also like J-pop, it makes me all giddy and happy on the inside. And then I've always had a fondness of soundtracks, the real soundtracks that is, not those sappy song-infested soundtracks, no, I really like the music from a movie, the stuff they play in the background to create a mood.

5. Tell us about you.

I'm Dutch, I used to have a promising career as a male model, but lightning struck, together with apathy and puberty and then I just saw it all go to hell, but hey, I'm not bitter or anything, I was the purdiest 8-year-old you've ever seen damnit. I wish I would be able to say that I chilled with all the other celebrity kids, that I was living a life of drugs and sex, but hey, it was more of a hobby than a job, most of the pictures I'm found on were taken for free.
So a long story short, I never was a real model, just had an aunt with good connections and a job in the dazzling world of photography.

But I sound so much more interesting when I claim to have been a model. Which isn't a lie.... just stretching reality like a rubber band...

6. Do you give a "X" about us

1) My screenname was my callsign in the Air Force, those who have been around the board for a while (and I'm talking years) will probably remember me.

2)Anything with Deadpool in it, Weapon X, eXiles, looking forward to Astonishing, will give everything else at least 3 or 4 issues to try it

3)The Godfather or Die Hard

4) Anything except twangy country. Right now I'm on a big "surf-pop" kick: Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, Toots & The Maytals... I'll take any suggestions to stuff I "should" be listening to as well.

5) It's more fun to let you guess

6) Of course.

[Quarterwolf]

i like my occasional guilty J-pop pleasure as well.


5. Tell us about you.

[nooocandy]

JIP, as in gyp ( JIP being the phonetically written version according to my memory ).

It's used informally in Britain as in to cause pain or discomfort and also as to take the mick out of someone or cause someone aggrovation

e.g. ( a made up example, don't look thru any comics for this ).

Magneto: You are a pathetic weakling, a poor excuse of a mutant and you are poorly endowed in the trouser department.

Capt Britain: Stop giving me gyp and let's fight.

[Mr. Jip]

[Cyclops]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

Junior year of college I lived on a floor that had an unusually high percentage of comic book geeks. One of the things that we did early on was pair everyone on the floor (personality-wise) with their analogue in the X-universe. Since I was a little older and tend to have a big-brother streak, I was said to fill the Cyclops role. It made me think that Scott probably is the comic book character that I'm most like, and I wanted a cool code name when I registered so....

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.

I read comics almost exclusively in TPB now. I really liked Morrison on New X-Men, and I also read the two Marvel Masterworks series. I'm greatly anticipating both Whedon and Singer on their respective books too.

3. What is your favorite movie?

Superman: The Movie. Quintessential.

4. What music do you listen to?

All kinds. Playing right now is Jamie Cullum's "twentysomething," some interesting jazz arrangements from the young British artist. Very fun and highly recommended.

I'm a 26 year-old medical school drop-out who left to pursue study in the creative fields instead. I was an art minor in college, and right now I'm taking illustration and drafting classes to assemble a portfolio for graduate work...architecture, hopefully.

I do. I really, really do.

[For the Good of X]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
My screenname, chosen specifically when I joined CBR in November of 03, represents my attitude toward the X-books. I just want them to be good, readable, intelligent and fun for everyone who enjoys reading them. I make no secret that I'm 30 and read comics. I try to be an embassador for them.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.
Anything by Claremont or Morrison. I loved New X-Men and enjoyed Claremont/Davis' first issue of Uncanny. I've also enjoyed X-Statix and will buy the PAD Madrox series. New X-Men Mutant Academy looks promising as well.

3. What are your favorite movies?
The Breakfast Club. Billy Elliot. Truth or Dare. Out of Sight. All About My Mother. Clueless. Purple Rain. The Terminator.

4. What music do you listen to?
Madonna, Bjork, Prince, U2, jazz, big band, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Diana Krall, funk, some hip hop like Outkast and Jay-Z, lots of other stuff. No country or hardcore metal or rap.

[Cactusakic]

1: What Does Your Screen Name Mean? Why Did You Pick It?

It's a cross between Cactus and Sakic. Cactus is my nickname because I look (so I'm told) and act like Cactus Jack aka Mick Foley/Mankind/Dude Love from WWE/ECW etc. Sakic is from Joe Sakic of the Colorado Avalanche who I have supported for as long as I care to remember.

2: What X-Books Do You Read? You Are Here Cause You Read Them.

I stopped reading comics sometime around the mid 90's. I have only got back into them (with a vengance, my current monthly standing order is over 40 titles) in the last year or so and I have been intentionally avoiding the x-books as I am a bit of a completist and if I buy one, I'll have to buy them all. I was buying Weapon X, Wolverine, Ultimate X-Men and NYX, but as none of these are core x-titles I thought I was doing o.k. But then along comes the Reload and makes it too damn tempting and too damn easy to get back into all things X. So I now read the above plus X-Men, New X-Men, Uncanny X-Men, Excalibur, District X and Astonishing X-Men. I'm standing firm on not buying Mystique though, lol.

3: What Is Your Favorite Movie?

Godfather Part II. Closely followed by Godfather Part I, Goodfellas, Blade Runner and Chinatown.

4: What Music Do You Listen To?

Pretty much anything and everything, but some of my favorites are:
The Doors, New Order, Joy Division, The Who, Nirvana, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Bruce Springsteen, The Pixies, Ash, Prodigy, Evanescence, The White Stripes, The Clash, Green Day, The Happy Mondays, 2 Many DJ's, Chemical Brothers, Aerosmith, Guns N Roses, The Streets.

5: Tell Us About You.

I'm 23 and I think my life peaked around 5 years ago, but I carry on in the hopes of being proved wrong. I work outdoors which is great at this time of year, but it blows in the winter. My main interests are Film, Comics, Porn and Pro Wrestling in that order. My girlfriend understands and accepts the first three. The highlight of my year for the past 5 or 6 years running has been attending the Glastonbury and Reading music festivals here in the U.K during the summers. Over the last few years I have seen some of the greatest bands on the planet and this year is setting up to be one of the best yet. Fingers crossed.

Nearly 27 years old.

Been reading comics for about 18 straight years.

Got a BBA in Business Management and I work for my Dad in our family owned small business in Tennessee.

Bodybuilding is my other passion besides comics -- been at it for years now.

Dislikes: people who don't think for themselves

Oh yeah, I also have excellent teeth. Thank you, Rembrandt. ;)

Do you give a "X" about us

Yeah, but you guys need to lighten up sometimes.

Why do I feel like a fish out of water around here sometimes? And don't tell me it's just the Austen arguments either. ;)

What music do I listen to

Hmmm, Well Krock is my station but I'm open to pop, house, techno, and some r&b/hip hop/rap. I use the term some very loosely since it is rare and thats why I grouped those categories all together.

[Quarterwolf]

That is Rockin' Matt. Very cool new feature. Thanks for doing that.

[bakla]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
"Bakla" means "Faggot" in the Philippines, where I'm from. It's a name that was a hated taunt I had to endure when I was younger. I decided to repurpose it, own it and make it a positive thing. Which it's become, actually.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.
I enjoyed Morrison's New a lot, and I follow Claremont no matter what - I may not like what he does sometimes and I'll be vocal about it, but I'm a fan. I read Uncanny for 17 years before he left, and after that long, it's a comfort thing to hear that 'voice' and read those characters' exploits. And it's hard to give up.

3. What is your favorite movie?
The only movie I've seen more than X-men was Firestarter. I think I wanted to be a pyrokinetic little girl with a telepathic David Keith as my...er,...daddy. That, and when you recall her final triumphant razing of the institute that tried to control her, it was a very righteous moment in the vein of vintage Storm...!

4. What music do you listen to?
Mostly House, a lot of Downtempo/Lounge, some pop, but ecelectic: the Hotel Costes series, Scissor Sisters, Annie Lennox, Jamiroquai, vintage Swing Out Sister, Strawberry Switchblade & Blowmonkeys, Bebel Gilberto, Royksopp, Prefab Sprout...lots.

5. Tell us about you.
Do you have a year?

6. Do you give a "X" about us
Enough to post here as often as I do!

[bakla]

Matt excluded me from the Xposter list. :(

[Quarterwolf]

Matt excluded me from the Xposter list. :(

Well now he can add you. He was linking each person to the post they did on this thread.

[tangentman]

mattbib, could you take off the extra "t" on my nick? Thanks :)

[Optimus]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
Fairly obvious in my case, I love me them 80's Transformers. I posted as Soundwave on the old thread for about 100 posts before the whipe. So yeah, I'm a rookie.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.
Ultimate is pretty much it for now, though I'll give Amazing a try. I dropped New after Morrison left. I still like the characters if not the current status.

3. What is your favorite movie?
Uh, how bout Braveheart?

4. What music do you listen to?
Beatles, Sinatra, Springsteen and newer stuff. Don't look at me like that, I'm 26!

5. Tell us about you.
Um, did I mention I'm 26? I work at Best Buy fixing computers but am going to take my LSats soon so I can truly be the next Lionel Hutz!

6. Do you give a "X" about us
Not yet, but give me time ;)
So start answering again.

[Kirayoshi]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

Kirayoshi is a subtle Star Trek: Deep Space Nine reference. Yoshi is the son of Miles and Keiko O'Brien, but due to injuries Keiko sustained in a shuttlecraft accident when she was pregnant, Kira Nerys ended up becoming a surrogate mother for the unborn Yoshi. In her honor, Miles and Keiko chose to change the child's name to Kirayoshi.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.

I started with the Claremont/Paul Smith period. I'm looking forward to Claremont/Davis, and Whedon's run on Astondishing. And praying fervently that Chuck Austin will never get his grimy mitts on Kitty Pryde.

3. What is your favorite movie?

Of all time? It's a Wonderful Life. Recently, the Lord of the Rings movies.

4. What music do you listen to?

Evanescence, Dave Matthews, REM, B52s, Talking Heads, Nickleback, Ramones, Brian Setzer Orchestra, The Chieftains, Civilized Animal(a Spokane-based ska/hiphop/raggae combo) and the soundtrack to 'O Brother Where Art Thou'

5. Tell us about you.

I'm an old-school comics fan and a voracious reader. I'm finally getting around to reading Michael Chabon's "The Amazing Adventures of Kavilier and Clay" and enjoying it immensely. I also enjoy biking.

And I've written quite a bit of Buffy the Vampire Slayer fanfiction. Favorite pairing, Buffy/Willow(Hey, she's done far worse!).

6. Do you give a "X" about us

Aw, what the 'X'!

[Roquefort Raider]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

I wanted something that tried to sound impressive but was obviously ridiculous, with a hint of my French-Canadian origins. The alliteration was also reminiscent of old Marvel comics names, like Doctor Doom or Black Bolt.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.

I'm actually here because of the posters! I dropped all the X-titles back around uncanny X-Men #300. I did come back for the trades of the Morrison run (great, great stuff, apart maybe from the uninspired Planet X) and I probably will not be interested in the Return of the Spandex storyline. That was good in the 70s and 80s, but personally I've had my fill. And Logan looks ridiculous in his canary-yellow costume.

3. What is your favorite movie?

Currently it's Asterix et Obelix: mission Cleopatre, a hilarious adaptation of the famous French comic. But I usually have a new favorite movie every few months.

4. What music do you listen to?

I like a lot of things... Opera, baroque, classical, rock, movie soundtracks...
Anything but what makes it to commercial radio top-50.

5. Tell us about you.

Father of two, happily married for close to 20 years, professor of biology, amateur cartoonist (http://www.biolinks.com/humor) , amateur writer, I practice karate and ride a bike to work (when my arm isn't in a cast as it is right now). I've accumulated way too many comics in the past 30 years, and most of them not very good at that.

6. Do you give a "X" about us

Y ?

3. What is your favorite movie?
Pulp Fiction & Kill Bill Volume 1 + 2

4. What music do you listen to?
R&B & Pop

5. Tell us about you.
I'm a 14 year old boy who lives in the Netherlands and who's parents are Turkish. I started reading comics 2 years ago. My English isn't that great, but insn't bad either.

we are behind you, but not very much

3. What is your favorite movie?

Dancer in the Dark with Bjork

4. What music do you listen to?

[DrScoobhat29]

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.
Well, all of them. I'm a sucker.

3. What is your favorite movie?
Clue, Road Trip, Sandlot

4. What music do you listen to?
Punk, Pop Punk, Billy Joel, Colin Hay, Phil Collins...this list could go on and on. I'm into anything that's got a good hook.

5. Tell us about you.
I'm a recent grad of NYU now applying to medical schools. I've been reading comics since I was about 8, starting with those old TMNT ones, then getting into X-Men with the introduction of Bishop.

6. Do you give an "X" about us.
Though I might not talk much on these boards, and it took my 3 years to get my former 120 posts, I certainly do. It's the reason I stick around. Everyone here, though I've disagreed with some, is a good person and certainly willing to help.

Welcome to all the people returning and the ones who just signed up. Great to see you all and have you back.

[devil_may_care]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
I got this name from one of my teachers. He was giving me this long talk about how I got all this talent and whatever and said that my "devil may care attitude" was pissing him off. I like the "devil may care" part. It sounds cool.

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.
I buy the New Mutants series that just became Academy X. I buy Wolverine if that counts. I'm gonna buy Astonishing. I read everything else but that doesn't mean I buy em. Mostly thanks to my non support of chuck Austen.

5. Tell us about you.
I'm an aspiring actor/writer. I'd love to write comic books, but don't know if I really have the drive. I think I could make some kickass stories. If I could write any current characters they'd be Daredevil, Wolverine, or Spider-Man. I also have my own original character that I'm tweaking. You know, I wouldn't mind writing the Hulk. That'd be fun.


6. Do you give a "X" about us
Dunno, haven't been here long enough to formulate an opinion.

[The Lucky One]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
I got this name from one of my teachers. He was giving me this long talk about how I got all this talent and whatever and said that my "devil may care attitude" was pissing him off. I like the "devil may care" part. It sounds cool.

Well, sure... but have you ever had a professor flip you off in class, right in front of the other students? That's the true test, young one. And a proud day for both you and your family. Trust me.

forget someone, Matt?

or have I just not made a beep on your radar yet on cbr?

edited to add that I just saw QW' post explaining that you only made a list of contributors who had already posted detials on this thread ... me ands my big mouth ... I really should have learned by now to read the complete thread before posting a response ...

[The Lucky One]

This thread is fascinating. All these different types of people. But beyond Puma and Pepsigirl...where are the females? I thought the X-Men had plenty of female readers....

I think Wolvie's Girlfriend/Ramona posted in this thread... but yeah, we still have a few MIA. Magik, for instance. And PhoenixRising, who's probably busy with the Comm board. Jade69 is inexcusable, though; she posts in X-Cres, she needs to introduce herself! And Sabre is female, don't forget; she's reintroduced herself.

-D, with fond memories of Papergirl, Red Monster, and poor Maddie Pryor (RIP)...

<ahem> forget someone, Matt?[/size]As you already deduced no, no I didn't. ;)

[venuscameback]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

it's a music thing, it hints at an album title by a favourite artist of mine. Kind of like saying i've been there - to the music - lived there and survived and came back here. with the music still inside me, an integral part of me.

I'm not at all pretentious

[venuscameback]

You do realize that I and several others are likely waiting for your autobiography.... :)
thanks B

but then i'm simultaneously waiting for yours!

Well I don't really know anyone here since I was pretty new not long before the forum messed up but this was the first forum for comics I found after I decided to get back into reading and everyone seems pretty cool.

:D

[greenman]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

6. Do you give a "X" about us

Is that like soft core? :eek:

[Gonzogoose]

1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?

Okay, Gonzo is a nickname my cousin gave me because I was a weirdo-I was kinda goofy, like the muppet (and no I don't have a huge hooked nose). The goose part comes from two places-1. one of the meanings of my first name is "baby goose", and 2. ya know when you laugh soooo hard you don't make a sound? Well, when that happens I try to take in air and I make a sort of...honking sound I guess, so my Mom always said I sound like a goose. Okay, that was probably waaay too much info. :o

2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.

X-Men, Uncanny X-Men, Exiles, Excalibur, New X-Men, the upcoming Astonishing X-Men, District X Emma Frost, and occasionally Cable/Deadpool, Wolverine, and other X titles.

3. What is your favorite movie?

My favorite movie of all time is "It's A Wonderful Life", but I also love Spider-Man, LOTR, Mission Impossible, Jerry Mcguire, and a whole bunch of others too numerous to list-I video tape EVERYTHING I watch as far as movies or wrestling goes and some season finales (not to mention the whole season of the past two American Idols).

4. What music do you listen to?

I'm pretty eclectic. I don't care for country, but someon like Leann Rimes I can listen to, and I HATE heavy metal, which I just classify as noise. I mainly listen to R&B and Contemporary Christian.

5. Tell us about you.

I'm 27, in Ky, have lived here since I was 5. I've been reading comics consistentlly since I was 13, though I didn't by any for five years, between ages 19 and 23 for a lot of reasons I won't go into. I don't have much time for anything else. I love singing, writing and drawing in that order. As for what I do, I work in a Business Office, but I want to write-just have to find the time for it. I'm on the search for something I can do from home that won't require a huge investment or more school (I have a BA in Bus. Admin., an, minor Comp. Sci. Assoc. in Computer Science, and an Assoc. in Bus. Mgmt.) so I'll have more time to pursue my dreams and spend w/ mi familia, but haven't had much luck yet. Feel free to pm or e-mail me if you know something.

6. Do you give a "X" about us

If I didn't I wouldn't even be here. I post on CBR because it's the best place to find like-minded people with big dreams and aspirations. I'm not surrounded by the most creative or adventurous people in my life. So in short, I love you guys and gals.

[atoningunifex]

1) it's Atoning Unifex. Puzzle it out. Why did I pick it? I'm a masochist.

2) Ummm, I read what Claremont writes and X-Statix. I'm looking forward to reading District X. I'm going to try Astonishing but I've been wildly uninterested in what I've seen so far.

3) Good lord. Like I could choose.

4) Right now I'm alternating between the broadway cast album of ragtime and joan jett's greatest hits.

5) I have a weblog. Go read that. It'll tell ya enough.

6) Some more than others.

[Tre Styles]

Well Since we lost the old one I figure I should start a new one.
That's why they pay you the big bills, Q.
1. What does your screenname mean? Why did you pick it?
You all may have known me as The Minuteman Refugee. I am now Tre Styles. It means what it says in my tag. I've got many styles, although tre stands for the Third. Which I am. (I'm the third Sam in my family line)I changed my screename as a result of this metamorph that CBR went through. I was Minuteman for yearssssss.....change is good. Yes? Edit: I just realized that Tre Styles was the name of Cuba Gooding's character in Boyz in The Hood...which is cool with me too.
2. What X-Books do you read? You are here cause you read them.
I try to read all of them. There are a lot now. Although Austen makes me cringe. I enjoy mostly all X-Books. I've slowed up on Exiles, X-Statix,and X-Men though..
3. What is your favorite movie?
It changes periodically...but The Last Samurai was awesome.
4. What music do you listen to?
I listen mostly to contemporary Gospel, some R&B, and Hip-Hop too.
5. Tell us about you.
Well, I'm 29 as I type this. Born in March, and raised in Maryland. I still live there. I've been married to a wonderful woman for four years going strong.I just had a son in April of 2004. I teach at inner-city elementary school. I am an easy going kind of guy.. I love to draw and hope to get a scanner soon. There are some online comic things I like to do.(Oh, and post my stuff in "Draw Me an X".... ;) ) Of course, I love comic books, or I wouldn't be here. I also have a deep spiritual side to me. I'm a lover, not a fighter.

6. Do you give a "X" about us
OH YEAH. A big ol X from me 2 u all.
So start answering again.
But I did Quarterwolf.
Oh and in case you changed your sceen name let us know who you were as well. Thanks.
I did that as well. :cool:

[Papergirl]

I think Wolvie's Girlfriend/Ramona posted in this thread... but yeah, we still have a few MIA. Magik, for instance. And PhoenixRising, who's probably busy with the Comm board.
