Blowing Gas - The Quintessential Flier

[MuhollandDriver]

Flight is a famous, awe-inspiring visual for many superheroes. Steeped in comic book tradition, it may very well be a power that defines the standard costumed superhero.

The power is so popular, in fact, that some heroes are given the power when it makes zero sense.

This is for the heroes that make the heroic tradition of flight look good.


Is it Cannonball?

The man looks great pummeling through buildings and helicopters in the air. His U-turns have improved since New Mutants vol. 1. A relief that "Ahm 'bout near invulnerable when ahm blastin'."

Angel? This Adonis with avian feathers, along with Sam's sis, normalized aerosex into a standard position.

Or Phoenix? i hesitated, since this character can be an ex machina, but the sight of those hot wings ripping through space and gobbling up civilizations is something else.

How about Storm? The woman looks like royalty in the sky. Who needs that false-deity worshiper of a husband.

The photo i chose is one that is completely free of Wakanda...free of Black Panther....here is Ororo in all her pre-marriage beauty.....................behold.........


Mohawk, Asgardian threads, tranny ferocity, queer intentions, a cute little hammer.......

Let it rip, lady.

Angel. He was the first X-Man flier, and he's still one of the most acrobatic, and capable ones. He might not have the top speed of Cannonball, or such, but he does it with grace and style.

Assuming he's not shagging Husk while flying, of course. But that should count as a power feat.

[Dagger]

Angel. The first, the best, the most beautiful and graceful character in the air. He's like poetry to watch.

[MuhollandDriver]

There's Banshee...possibly a lesser option to some....but who can resist those Pippi Longstocking capes.

Or, vote other.

If You prefer Warren with some burning roots....

Or a fey Mary Sue.....

What flier is the gas beneath Your wings? Go for it!

[psycwave]

I chose Angel. I mean flying is all he could ever really do. Hasnt it been stated that he is one of the most skilled flyers in the MU too?

Icarus is second.

I voted for Angel, but I was thinking it's a shame that Rogue can't fly any more.:frown: (Or can she?We don't know the full extent of what Rogue's power is in it's mature form!:eek: )

"Blowing Gas" is the title of the Dummy fellatio thread. Copyright infringement!

Oh, and I vote for Cannonball.

[psycwave]

I just realized, Wing is not an option.

Done.

[just another user]

Done.

She's already winning, Jed.

Warpath.

... nah I'll pick Cannonball. (even though there's a lack of Banshee love).

Follower. Be a true pioneer and pick Banshee.

Done.

OMG.
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aay.

[Swashbuckler]

WARPATH is the quintessential flier.

The question is, which quessential thread is the most quintessential? Also, we have yet to choose the quintessential Furry X. Feral is the answer.

Queersential also needs to be done Moholland. Bling will win.

[Agent_Torpor]

Sorry, Banshee is it. Flaming red sideburns? Yessir.

[Washout]

Rogue is the X-men's best flier. I don't care what the writers and editors currently think.

[Aguja]

Angel, though I love all of the characters on this list.

[Mr_Hellfire]

I grew up on X-Men the animated series, so when I think of the X-Men's fliers I think of a certain Southerner who smacked the shit out of anyone who got in her way while in the air.

I seriously don't really accept her not having her Ms. Marvel powers.

Bahaha! Cable got the crap hit out of him :evilsmile:

"The names Cable. Remember it!"

That animation looks hand-cranked on the edges of some notebook paper.

[CmX]

I was totally expecting Sage to be an option. Oh well. =/

[MuhollandDriver]

Reboot your system and press other! It counts.

As they say here... the ones with the wings on their uniform are the flyers. The one with wings, is the flyer in this case as well, Angel.
