Whether they are too old, have been in action one too many times, getting sloppy at what they do, have too many personal problems to focus, going through too many physical or mental problems, have been manipulated by others to the point of being disoriented with who they are, can't seem to get their love life in order, have died and been reincarnated one too many times, competes too often with sibblings for attention, have been in power too long and need to pass the torch on to someone else, have too many communicable diseases, or any other excuse you can think of - who would you like to retire from the ranks of the X-men for a while or for good?

Scott and Jean (obviously when she comes back). That way they go up to Alaska and live happily ever after.

Let him become a consultant or something.

Wolverine, .... is there anyone else? Magneto!? (isn't he on vacation for like another 3 years?)
Beast, only because he's like the only true brain they have.. (he has to much job safety)

Uh he's been consulting since day 1? What did you think he did? Run out the battlefields and physically beat the crap out people. :biggrin:
I still waiting for a Professor X: The Younger Years. Where we see him beating the crap out people with his mad kung fu skills, and Ninja like stealth capabilities. :evilsmile:

Colossus.
The life brings him nothing but constant sadness.

Agreed. Once Kitty emerges from whatever limbo Joss Whedon tosses her into in GSAXM(and she will; she's an X-Men, the Grim Reaper has them on a catch-and-release program), she and Peter should retire from the business, settle down in Chicago, go to college, get married and raise a family of future X-Men.

I'd so pay to see that lol
I'd pick Dazzler, she so deserves to finally pursue her muscial career full-time again.

Gambit. It sucks seeing such a great character done so poorly and in so many different ways (without explanation?).
Send him to limbo before it's too late.

I like that you think he is great, and he is.. and damnit to all hell that people can't come to appreciate him, but tossing him into Limbo doesn't seem right.

I wouldn't like that either. But he's basically been there as of late. And I doubt anyone is going to try and fix him anytime soon, especially with Rogue gone.
I think they need to send him away before they do anymore damage, basically.

On that note you're right, and there really isn't any other place he can go. Especially since they did that crappy New Gambit thing in Exiles.

If they retire from the superhero business, couldn't they then become super-villains?
I am now thinking this is a trick question.

Her dream job was to be homeless bag lady though. I say if you're going to have her retire at LEAST let her have the dignity of picking the profession she wants! Just don't let Lois near her - she has hobo-killing hands!!! :eek:
