Mjnari : Godson of Storm ??

[Leogam]

Would you like to see Mjnari the mutant speedster & godson to Storm from
X-Men the Animated Series have a 616 counterpart

[Swashbuckler]

Would you like to see Mjnari the mutant speedster & godson to Storm from

Not in any way, shape or form.

[starman]

You must have just watched the X-men Animated Series episode this morning like I did on my DVR.

[Leogam]

yea i did, i thought the kid had potential. Storm needs more ties to family to broaden her character she needs to progress

[ZNOP]

Hell, no! Don't you remember all of the trouble that came about from "Jean Grey" being adapted as guardian of the M'Kraan Crystal? That Alpo came from the cartoon as well -- which Grant Morrison fed to us.

Yes I would.......

[Prodigy55]

So no to Mijnari because of something Morrison did to Jean?

[ZNOP]

So no to Mijnari because of something Morrison did to Jean?

I, see your point:redface:

[Deus ex Chris]

yea i did, i thought the kid had potential. Storm needs more ties to family to broaden her character she needs to progress

I disagree. I prefer Storm as an orphan. Plus, I'm sick of seeing her play surrogate mommy.

[Peter F.]

I wonder. Was Mjnari a precursor to Spyke in X-men: Evolution?

[Yogaflame]

Actually the cartoon is referencing the amazing Lifedeath II where Storm delivers a baby for this girl whom she met in her journey across Africa without her powers(just after she got shot in the head by the Fenris twins). The child was stillborn or something, but Storm breathed life into it and it lived. In that tribe, they could only support a certain amount of ppl, so with each birth, the eldest tribes member had to die, in this case, the tribal elder named M'Jnari. So there already is a 616 correspondence to the cartoon character, but I would imagine that child could only be around 6 years old or so since the issue occurred in the mid 1980's (given Marvel time and all that).

[starman]

Seikun21. Is that Niels, Speedballs cat as your avatar? If so that is awesome.

[Peter F.]

Seikun21. Is that Niels, Speedballs cat as your avatar? If so that is awesome.

Yes. Yes it is, from the first cover to the upcoming Lockjaw and the Pet Avengers mini.

[The Black Guardian]

I disagree. I prefer Storm as an orphan. Plus, I'm sick of seeing her play surrogate mommy.
Agreed, and I hope all of her recent family additions turn out to be LMDs sent by SHIELD to spy on her.

[HeckBoy]

The only cartoon-exclusive character I'd maybe want 'ported over to the 616 is Morph, but I don't feel strongly for it. I liked him in the TAS, but shape-shifters aren't generally my thing.

[nj06]

To be honest I always liked this character and I would like to see some incarnation of him within the the X-books or Black Panther.

I like the idea of Storm breathing life into him and being his godmother, therefore he is not directly related to Storm, but still close enough to be family. Maybe they can make him be best friends with Nezhno, almost spoils to one another: Nezhno's strength and calm attitude to Mjnari's speed power and more comical side.

[witchboy]

No. I have no intrest in the character. I'd rather have Kitty back, she fills a similar role in Storm's life as a surrogate child.

[darknessatnoon]

Christopher O has final word on all matters Storm.

[RolandJP]

Dug this thread up. because I just saw this episode on DVD. Watching the X-men Animated series. "Whatever It Takes" November 6, 1993 (1993-11-06)

The Shadow King lures Storm home to Mt. Kilimanjaro by 'possessing' her young spiritual son Mjnari, so Rogue and Storm travel to Africa to stop the Shadow King. After a brief fight Mjnari lures Shadow King back into the Astral Plain and the Shadow King is again trapped there.

X-23 was once just an animated character until pulled into Marvel 616. It would be cool to have Storm's Godson join a new team of Young X-men.

Don't worry, she'll be spawning with Doom soon enough...

[Scrite]

Nah I can do without him.

The only "Came from Cartoons" Marvel characters I really like are Firestar and X-23. Although Morph has his moments in Exiles and Age of Apocalypse.

I'd say something clever, and oh, so appropriate. But, your making a better fool of yourself then I, ever could this morning. Redeem yourself -- at least watch a few episodes of "The Boondocks (http://www.adultswim.com/shows/theboondocks/index.html)" before attempting a grand feat such as imitations:evilsmile:

[LordAllMighty]

Actually, I would like to see her take more of family feel towards Nezhno. The kid needs it.

[darknessatnoon]

Nezhno is a prole and she's the Queen. I think not.

[Thirteen]

Actually, I would like to see her take more of family feel towards Nezhno. The kid needs it.

I agree. Lots of potential with both of them being mutants and looked upon as outsiders by the Wakandan public. Nezhno for having a Non-Wakandan Father, Ororo for being the "American who stole the King".
They both seem to have compatible personalities as well that would make them a good match for mentoring connection.

[Imraith Nimphais]

This dot dot dot.

[Valeria Kementari]

X-Men the Animated Series have a 616 counterpart

NO :biggrin:

[Imraith Nimphais]

On further thought...they could introduce 616 Mjnari into the Strom/Black Panther mythos all grown up:sans powers...and as an intergral player in Storm's future and her connection to Wakanda. More like a political and important figure.

[Monty_Cristo]

i liked what i saw in the cartoon. if he did appear in the books i'd rather he have no relation to Storm; just be an african speedster.

[Prodigy55]

Nezhno is a prole and she's the Queen. I think not.

She's in Nezhno's old prison cell! It's role reversal time.

[SayOcean]

Yoga flame has already said were this kid came from...and I wouldn't mind seeing him reappear in comics....maybe he could have been artificially aged or something

[lockerogue]

As long as Storm screams his name I welcome Mjnari.

MJNARI!!!!!!

[nj06]

please stop stanking up tha storm thread it black panther charcoal ugly a## dont nobody wanna hear bout that trash

smh lol...


Anywho, they could also make him a misguided youth. Perhaps he fights various forms of injustice throughout Africa. However, since he is young, maybe he can cause more harm than good. Then Storm and Black Panther can teach him how to use his powers in a more useful/effective way.

As a speedster, I'm sure he could prove useful for Storm and Black Panther when they are fighting evil and what not.

[Blaque]

Yes! I'd love to see him with a 616 counterpart. Marvel needs more major black characters. I'm tired of basically seeing Storm and Bishop as the X-Men's "black" characters. Yes, they have added a few more (such as Maggot, Gentle and Prodigy) but they are minor characters and not really X-Men. They should expand his character, and alter his powers somewhat. Maybe make him gay or bi and have a thing with Anole. Super-speed is kind of a played out and/or overused superpower. Maybe make him a geo-kinetic that can manipulate the earth, which could have gives him the initial illusion of super speed. He could be powerful like Terra from Teen Titans or the mutate named Zealot.
He should be a little rebellious and argues with others, but mainly Storm and T'Challa. The stereotypical angry black youth (everyone can't be a perfect role model. I'm tired of all the well-adjusted "black" characters. There should be at least one with a different attitude). He could even have a choppy relationship with Gentle, who views him as a monarch, much to his dismay.
Mjnari should remain Storm's foster son, of course. And as such be with the royal family. This would give her more ties within the comics.

[Monty_Cristo]

he could be the 616-version of Blur (from MAX Supreme Power).

[Swashbuckler]

No thanks. The last thing we need is another black X-Man for the racially obsessed people to complain about. "He isn't around enough" "Why can't he had a love intrest" "It's cliche for a black guy to have super-speed"

[Skaddix]

[Justin K.]

Does marvel really need another super-speedster anyways?

[Swashbuckler]

lol so easy for the majority to say.

It's true. I don't need RolandJP starting a thread every two minutes about how upset he is the Mjnari isn't getting a new uniform when Cyclops has had 5. I don't want to hear about how it's not fair that Mjnari isn't in a movie but Iron Man's had two. It's stupid. It was a stupid character on the cartoon and it would be a stupid character in the 616. Storm already has to pretend to give a damn about Neznho. I don't need some other urchin clinging to her ankles. It's bad enough she's strapped down with that pillow-case of rocks T'Challa. giving her some orphan son would not be interesting at all.

Lol your exageratting. there is nothing wrong with wanting minorities to have decent panel time, non dependency or fatal powers, not get depowered, and not always get killed.

Well, if they didn't just write him out, then no1 could say that now, huh?
I mean Wolverine is on about every X-team there is (hyperbole. lol), so it's not too difficult to have a black character to be seen routinely.
Yes, I agree a black character with super-speed is a tad bit cliche' (if not down and out racist. But hey Jubilee use to shoot fireworks. lol).

[nj06]

I would like to see him make an appearance. I would make him out to be somewhat of a hero throughout East Africa. However I would have him bite off more then he could chew when dealing with a specific enemy (Moses Magnum perhaps?) and thus he would require the aid of Storm.

I would also have his mutation be more then just super-speed. Like how Speed can blow things up, or Kid Flash can travel through walls, I would give Mjnari super-speed and then some, but I don't know yet what it would be lol.

[Umbra]

What?

So it's racist/cliche for a black character to have Super Speed, even though there are not many examples of Black Characters with Super speed?:confused:

I take it you aren't black huh? It's a racial stereotype, man. I'm not saying I'm offended (it's just a cartoon), I'm just making a point. Black people are said to run fast. Thanks for getting my Jubilee comment at least. lol

What. I am black. In fact I'm sprinter and I don't see it as a stereotype. How is it a stereotype when there are pretty much no examples of speeders in comics?

Most black readers I know would *love* to have a black speeder for that reason.

It's a tab bit cliche' (if not down and out racist), is a generalized statement man. It's like saying all black people supposedly run fast. Chinese people are associated with fireworks? Come on man. I mean as a black man, I'm not offended either, however I don't run track or anything (lift weights though). It's just an observation. I'm glad you want Mjnari as a reoccurring character at least. Marvel does a pretty good job quelling racism in their comics, however there are a few stereotypes that are still out there (however it doesn't mean they shouldn't make a stereotypical character). I'm just saying....any of my black elders would understand the point in which I'm trying to convey with this statement.

[alf_to_the_rescue]

Yes, they have added a few more (such as Maggot, Gentle and Prodigy) but they are minor characters and not really X-Men.

Maggott was an X-Man! Certainly more so than the other two. During one of the greatest teams might I add.

That's your opinion. I totally disagree. I don't see how something is "cliche" when it has not been used at all. I don't see how it's racist either.:confused:

If Marvel made speeders Black Mutant, how is it racist--when that would probably one of the first?:confused:

[Blaque]

Maggott was an X-Man! During one of the greatest times might I add.

I really don't consider Maggot as a "real" X-Man personally. Technically he was an X-Man though, you are correct (which is why I mentioned him. In hindsight, I may have made a little error when listing him alongside Gentle and Prodigy). But where is he now? Obviously he wasn't that important of a character. And since he's not a mainstay at the mansion, I don't consider him an X-Man anymore. He got "killed" off panel, not even in a heroic manor to me.

He was resurrected during Necrosha. He is currently hiding out waiting for the right time to make his heroic return and save the X-Men!

[nj06]

How many super-speedsters do they have? And of those that they do, how many of them actually get decent panel time?

Marvel's most popular speedster is Quicksilver, and then I would say probably Speed or Northstar. I know Marvel has Spitfire and Makkari, but neither of them seem to get a lot of attention (IMO).

It would be cool to see Mjnari and Surge to race one another.

[fortyseven]

What type of powers should a black character have to not be racist?

Well I was playing off of someone else's quote, which I added that it's more racist than cliche'. The idea of black people running fast is cliche'/trite. However, a black mutant speedster isn't (merely because of the fact that Marvel doesn't have too many black characters to begin with),so it's not unbelievable that they would give one super-speed. I like Mjnari and his powers, but I would like him better if his powers were expanded or altered slightly.
We don't have to agree man. It's just an opinion as you've already stated. I've just been around older black people that would see my viewpoint. Marvel is still great, and I still love Marvel Comics. Thnx.

Thnx for that info man. I figured Marvel already had a black speedster....I just was too lazy to research it myself. I knew a hardcore fan would find out for me in due time. lol.

[Blaque]

What type of powers should a black character have to not be racist?
Super intellect or speech powers. LMFBAO (sarcasm folks). I guess no one up here gets the concept of Hyperbole huh? lol. It's all good, ain't mad at y'all. lol

[Blaque]

He was resurrected during Necrosha. He is currently hiding out waiting for the right time to make his heroic return and save the X-Men!
Oh wow! Really. I've always like Maggot....or more accurately Eany and Meany. I never really understood his powers though. I guess he gains nourishment, super-strength, durability and stamina from the things his "pets" eat. An after-effect of which is his blue hue I'm guessing?
I just never personally considered him a "real" X-Man. But that may change if he does something grandiose. And stuck around maybe 10-15 yrs consecutively. lol

Prodigy already had those powers and they took them away and tossed him into limbo so a vastly inferior team of scientist in X-club could take center stage.

[Pantera]

No. I think if they were gonna do that it should have been done years ago, and then he could have him joined Gen X. As of right now we have enough "young" X-men that need their characters fleshed out, particularly the Five Lights, without bringing in some random family member.

[Deus ex Chris]

i think its funny that he also has Level 6 Intellect in their own databooks which means he outscores all of x-club plus cypher and ties with such notables as Doom, Reed, and Stark. And yet he gets the coffee jokes and never gets to solve one of the x-men's numerous science problems even in Legacy despite being smarter then everyone else. Seriously the last time we saw him was a few panels from Carey with him playing baseball. I will be shocked if we even see him in Age of X especially doing something of note.

Wouldnt Mjnari b kool in a team also featuring Vibraxas(Wakandan 'close' 2 BP/Tchalla from Priest's run with unlimited control over vibratory force/s).

Luke Cage is way 80's. Mr. T wannabe. lol. I know they had a few militant black characters (like Triathlon...now his sarcasm and attitude was funny. Reminded me of Lynnell from the Jefferson), But characters like: Storm, Bishop, M, Prodigy, Black Panther, and Gentle are basically all well adjusted. I'd like a sarcastic militant black mutant youth that has ties to the X-men come to light. He doesn't have to join the team.

Prodigy already had those powers and they took them away and tossed him into limbo so a vastly inferior team of scientist in X-club could take center stage.

LoL. I was being sarcastic....if not ironic with that statement. LoL. Prodigy was a decent character to me. He had potential to develop into a black Capt American-like team leader. But they already have Issiah Bradley (I think that his name from Young Avengers...I may be wrong, but I'm sure someone will correct me if I am). But basically he was a weakling in the powers game, so they basically nixed him.

[Blaque]

No. I think if they were gonna do that it should have been done years ago, and then he could have him joined Gen X. As of right now we have enough "young" X-men that need their characters fleshed out, particularly the Five Lights, without bringing in some random family member.
I agree. However Gen X sucked with all their lame stories. It was a good concept at the time, and I enjoyed it until it went all bonkers with the stories. I forgot, Synch was another will adjusted "black" character.

Speaking of xmen cartoon xcters, wat happened 2 SPIKE?
I'll check it out man, thnx. Spike? Are you serious? He's a well adjusted, skateboarding rip off of Marrow, with 1/8th the personality. He was lame, weak and boring to me, albeit he's somehow Storm's nephew. Now it's characters like him that are added just for diversity that I could deal without. X-23 would've been far more interesting to me. He was so lame that they basically wrote him out of the series later on.

[Blaque]

Hmmmm.....so wats d status of dis xcter? Does he have any codename and was he significant in any of d storyline he has been in?

Uhm.....who else wants d combat kinetic Shola Inkosi 2 return?

Shola is obsolete with characters like Hellion and Psylocke around What exactly is a "combat kinetic"? They are just trying to make what I call "psychokinesis" (I personally consider it a different power than telekinesis) sound cool. He didn't do anything that any other "psychokinetic" hasn't done in the past. If they allowed him to do things like shape weapons out of psychokinetic energy that would make him stand out (no psychic katana though).

[Blaque]

i think its funny that he also has Level 6 Intellect in their own databooks which means he outscores all of x-club plus cypher and ties with such notables as Doom, Reed, and Stark. And yet he gets the coffee jokes and never gets to solve one of the x-men's numerous science problems even in Legacy despite being smarter then everyone else. Seriously the last time we saw him was a few panels from Carey with him playing baseball. I will be shocked if we even see him in Age of X especially doing something of note.

Wow. I knew he was smart, but not that smart. But is that with or without his powers? Because with his powers, he'd actually be the smartest person alive, because he could mimic the intellect of Doom, Reed and Tony (wonder why Marvel has no super-genius black characters. I know they have some smart black characters, but why not one of that caliber? Why no females either?) . I know the Cuckoos did something with his mind to restore his prior knowledge, so how smart is he currently?

[Blaque]

Quoted 4 d absolute frakkin truth!

Wat an absolut waste of a another gr8 xcter just like dey did with Synch.:mad:

Yea. Synch had a kind of unique spin added to his "copycat" powers. I loved the rainbow effect and how they made him use it in distinct ways (like as a homing beam from his forehead). His adaptive aura should've evolved to allow him to always fly at a moderate speed, function as a limited force field, and project mild concussive blasts (somewhat like a toned down Cannonball). It should still have his adaptive capabilities as well, just to keep him interesting.

Im surprised he hasnt been introduced as her own alternate reality child

they had Bill Foster (who is at least partially responsible for the Infinite Mansion seen in Mighty Avengers) but they killed him. and they still have Doc Nightshade.


Mjnari should totally call himself Blur; as a nod to Supreme Power.

[RLAAMJR.]

Minari should appear in the x-men books

:confused: Ummm, T'challa is a super genius. He is on par with Tony, Pym, Reed, and Doom.
