The "Stop Breaking The British characters" Thread. [Archive]

Come To Deathstrike

I refuse to take anybody moaning about anyone being "retconned" into something, or how they have been "destroyed" as to something relating to their background.

I hereby present to you, Britain - In Mutant Mess.

Pixie - Now has changed and been americanised to fit the mainstream market. The fact she is Welsh has only ever been mentioned once. Also, she is now crazy.
Chamber - his DNA has been re-structured so he is now Egyptian. someone who could have represented the youth of Britain, is well. . .broke.
Psylocke -Yes, Well. the most offensive character in history.
Meggan - She was not even allowed her own appearance. she was warped into Brian's "Ideal woman". who is basically Heidi Klum. also, she was a Black woman for a few issues. Oh, and that time she kept turning into a blue German. Fantastic. What do you really look like Dear?
Wolfsbane - Generally, her dialogue is so. . ."Scottish" it borders on Parody. Also, she is now crazy.
Sage - An afghani woman with Welsh roots. Sadly, we are not allowed to keep this. So a blonde haired blue eyed buxom princess is invented in her place to overtake her. Oh, and now she's made of light. Also, now she is crazy.
Jamie Braddock - Evil, wears hoop ear-rings and a thong. Also, he is crazy.
Captain Britain. - the 6"6 Blonde Haired, Blue eyed Super-Brit. Yes, because that is realistic. Also, an abusive drunk.

I cannot be thinking of any more, as this is a thinly veiled "Stop complaining", with a sad excuse for a thread on top.
So yes, we can all moan. It's easy. Many groups of people have under-representation.
Can you please get over it.
This panel perfectly sums up my thoughts

There aren't enough comics sold in the entire UK to compete with comic sales in Cairo. Until that changes, Egypt will continue poaching your people for characters.

Fact- All Egyptians are hilariously coloured.

Oxymandias - Grey
Apocalypse - Blue
Shadown King - Blue
Chamber - Blue
Blink - Purple

Make of that, what you will.

Re Captain Britain. Love that you pick everything except the fact the guy calls himself Captain Britain and doesn't get laughed at in public. :D

Meggan's just irritating, Wolfsbane was, highly so, then we had PAD and will be interesting to see how she pans out in X-Force - you know, when she can actually string a sentance together.

Chamber's fate SUCKS. :(

On the plus side we do have Wisdom, stereotypical chain smoking likely boy, but at least it's a modern stereotype.

Blink is both British & Egyptian. & her being pink has more to do with her British roots(Fredrick Slade) than her Egyptian ones(En Sabah Nur)...

As for Apocalypse in many of his older pics on marvel come database her has a brown face, more than likely most people who draw if now just like to like to make in all blue because than don't care, or lazy or etc

Now its really kind of mess up in some ways in how they recton Chamber, but hey he's atlest better off than how he was on M-day. Atleast now he can still now he can walk now & be a hero. He's not just Egyptian, he both British & Egyptian, he still sound British in the way he speaks that is atlest to me he does.

Everyones forgot Toad though- the only yorkshire character I believe and hes a wimpering ugly loser. Why couldn't we have a nice working class miner stereotype? haha

Blade got nicked as well! Though hes better as an american if you ask me.

I'm actually a bit surprised he hasn't been knighted for creating Captain Britain. Sir Chris Claremont has a nice ring to it. I expect JAU to get on the line to Scotland Yard about this right away. They have the ear of the Queen.

Wolfsbane's ridiculously over the top Scottish accent always used to get on my nerves during the New Mutants.

Now if Pixie is from Wales & in particular from South Wales she should really be adding the words "luv", "lush" to every single sentence "Cor that soul dagger is lush!" OR "Storm luv, why did you kick me in the stomach?"

Lush = yes, go right ahead and use this word often.
Luv = no! Nobody should use this word.

Other acceptable phrases for Pixie:

"Hey, look you"
"I'm going out for a bit of a teleport, see?"
"Tidy"
"Let's all go to Neath!"
"Nightcrawler? Who's that?"

Scotland
Ahab,
A villain rather than a hero, but yes, Scottish. Actually, quite a few on the list are villains.

Black Axe
Not Scottish. He lives in Scotland, but he's from Hyborian era (Conan's time) or older.

Wild Child
He's Canadian, not Scottish.

Zaran
A villain, not a hero, and no evidence he is Scottish. He's British, and he lived in Scotland while training himself to hunt and trap, but we don't know which part of Britain he initially hales from.

England
Elsa Bloodstone
Born in Boston, a US citizen.

Ghost Girl
She's Scottish, not English

Mordred
Mordred was born in what is now the Orkneys, so he's Scottish, not English.

Slaymaster
We don't know Slaymaster's nationality.

Alistaire Stuart, Alysande Stuart
Both Scottish

Dai Thomas
Welsh, and listed twice.

Wales
Captain Cymru, Pixie (Megan Gwynn), Red Dragon (Super Heroes of Europe), Stinger (Genetix), Damian Tryp, Dai Thomas
You can add Gog (Owen Llewelyn) of the Super Soldiers, and y Ddraig Goch (aka Dave Griffin, the Welsh Dragon) to the Welsh list.

They should let British members of CBR write a Pixie: Origins story with all of this happening.

Captain Cymru is a LADY!

Captain Cymru is BONNIE TYLER with a red tint to her luxious locks!!!

I second the motion of allowing us Brits to write Pixie's background. We could include...

1) Single mother at 13
2) Addiction to lottery scratch cards
3) A notorious shop lifter

We could make this story greater than the Dark Phoenix saga!
