I vote for Cable! He's cool, smart, has a gun and carries a baby.

I say the NAY to Cyclops.

Cyclops. Err..Cable is bothering me lately..I just kind of figure he's one of those old pervs..like if he lived at the mansion he would try to sneak in Surge's room or something..:confused:

I'm not fond of the way Cyclops was used in Messiah Complex, and Cable was used very well. However, at the end of the day, Cyclops is still a stronger concept and a better character.

I had an epiphany last year. I realized I love Cable.

Er... so Rogue is not a cutie??


Having just watched Children of Men AND Shoot ŽEm Up, my love for Cable has grown!

Yup.

No he wasn't in MC, lol.

You've *got* to get over Cyke's speech about demoting Rogue. Bobby f****n Drake did. I mean, come on. :D

Rogue isn't SUPPOSED to be a cutie. I miss the butchy mcbutch that she used to be. Not everyone is BEAUTIFUL.

Yes.

Stop the car.
I love you for getting that! It's one of my favorite lines in Morrison's run.

I vote for Cyclops!

But also Rogue is a cutie because I don't want Hi-Fi to hate me.

Voted for Scott. It wasn't until recently when people mentioned that Scott used to be competent in the 70 and 80's that I remembered it. The push he's been getting lately is well deserved and about time.

Never been much of a fan of Cable. I tried getting into his stories before, but wasn't my thing. Not until Cable and Deadpool. There he was balanced out with Wade, and I managed to care about him. His latest series is giving me time traveling Lone Wolf and Cub vibes. Which is a good thing, but sadly the art is not to my tastes.

Looks at the description."Multiple votes"... Darn it, forgot to vote for Rogue.

There's a joke in there about Rogue never making a crack at Emma's surgery, eh? :eek:

She was SASSY under Silvestri. Jim Lee made her too pretty. FAIL

I do miss sassy Rogue, though.

I can only imagine the first day she walked in the DR sporting that look.

Cyke: Alright, Jean, Iceman, Colossus, Angel, you're with Storm. Logan, Gambit, Beast, Psylocke and... Who the hell are you?? *looks around wonderingly*

Logan: That would be Rogue, one-eye.

Cyke: Really?

Logan: Yeah, really.

Cyke: The hell happened to the butch motif and the godawful hair?

Logan: She got Lee-ized.

Cyke: ...Now that you mention it... Did you get taller or...?

Logan: You don't wanna go there, bub.

Cyke. And Rogue's a cutie too.

It's difficult for me to answer, really.

When he's written at his best, I'd go with Cyclops. But if they continue writing Cyclops as they have been, I'll go with Cable.

And Rogue has always been a cutie.

They are both favorites of mine, and Rogue is a cutie.

But I'm gonna go with Cable because he isn't so damn aloof and reclusive (remember when Scott used to smile every now and then, or when he emoted more than just angst?). I often wonder if Scott actually maintains a legitimate friendship with anyone in the X-Men these days aside from Hank and Emma.

i might've said Cyclops when X-Force first came out. Now? Cable.

Jim Lee....his style is very "clean".....sometimes his females look like kewpie dolls.

While I've gone through different periods of liking/not liking Cable it came down to the fact I've always liked Cyclops.

She has the best of all girls: Irene Merryweather!

I do suggest you guys to track down Joe Casey's run on Cable. Great stories.

I think Cable is a better character but has an irredeemable concept and usually looks really tacky.

So Rogue's a cutie.

I voted for Scott, after Cap he's the best leader in Marvelverse. He only has to look at a woman and she's falling for him. Plus he's one of the only people who can make Wolvie behave himself (the others being Storm, Jean and Kitty).

I've always loved Cable. The time-jumping, mystery, cool image, and the save the world allegories have appealed to me throughout the years.

Cyclops.

Eye Lasers > Guns.

Rogue is a cutie though.

Mmmmmmm gonna haveta vote Cable, to my surprise. Cable is Clint Eastwood, Clint Eastwood > Scott Summers. Fact.

And Rogue is indeed a cutie, she'd be cooler if she was a Russian dude made of metal though.

It hard choice Cyclops has better costume and has gotten with hotter chicks while cable has gotten some of the more stupid makeover this side bishop and shadowcat but since Cable has never been portrayed like whiny beeyoch or dull as dirt like early cyclops.I admit though cyclops post most messiah attitude may change my mind in couple months.

Cyclops of course. Cable (along with Havok and Nate Gray) are just poor knockoffs of the original.

HATER!! Cyclops is so tame. And no Havok dissing.


Anyways, I voted Cable. He's become vastly more interesting since Mike Carey's been writing him. Cyclops drepresses me. He's become a real Debbie Downer lately.

Cyclops is the Bucky of the X-Verse. The Captain (Xavier) is dead (again) and he is stepping up like he always does when Storm is not available. Cable is a bitter baby trapped in an old man's body. Havok is such a lame older brother hater it is pathetic and Nate Gray is just ridiculous.

Cable, of course. With the way that Cyke's been portrayed as of late, the Mutant Super-Jesus has taken the role of "most popular Summers family member" with no trouble at all.

Also, Rogue is a cutie :)

They're both douches. Like father, like son. But if I really did have to choose I'd go with Cable because you have to give him kudos for putting up with Deadpool for that long. As well, the Cable Deadpool series was one of the best because of their chemistry (that and the writers did so well by keeping both the characters ACTUALLY in character in their interactions with each other).

Cable all the way... the man's a legend... Cyke's cool too, but Cable got me into comics, and is my personal favorite comic character (along with Ogami Itto, Conan and Judge Dredd)
