POLL: Favourite X-Woman

[RachelRules]

Who's your favourite X-Woman and why?

Mine, no surprise given my forum name, is Rachel Summers.

NO WAIT!! Don't throw the rotting produce yet!

Rachel is my favourite precisely because she's a flawed character. If you'd lived through the life she's lived through, you'd be pretty messed up too. But I like how she's turned her life around. She's made many mistakes, but she's learning. And, to paraphrase Captain Kirk at Spock's funeral, that makes her "the most . . . human."

So who's your favourite, and why?

[chickrockguitar]

X-23. Because she's awesome! :biggrin:

[Mitteloss]

Why did you make a poll multi-option if you're looking for favourite X-Woman?

Spock died :eek: :frown:

And I vote X-23!

[Quinnhop]

Rachel Grey and X-23 shouldn't even be on there.

[Shyft]

X-23 bay-bee!

[Puunk]

No spit, Sherlock.

The answer's X-23.

:) Warmed up to her ever since reading Innocence Lost and Target X.

[RachelRules]

Why did you make a poll multi-option if you're looking for favourite X-Woman?

Sorry, first time creating a poll.

Besides, some people have more than one favourite. I could easily add Rogue as she's my second favourite by only a hair's breath.

[Dave13]

Laura

Wind Dancer, Psylocke, Dust and Mercury

Emma is one of if not the all time favorite character of mine.

I started reading comics late 80s/early 90s. And I didn't notice till Morrison's run on New X-Men that whatever team/book Emma was on/in was my favorite. New Mutants, Generation X, New X-Men, Astonishing X-Men, and now Uncanny/Dark. She's had a natural/linear evolution into the major player of the X-Men and now the Marvel Universe. Its nice to be able to watch a character grow naturally (Similar to Cannonball another favorite of mine.)

Post Messiah Complex the X-World has really been lacking and I had considered dropping comics for a bit, but her involvement with Dark Reign has actually kept be interested.

[samhalliwell]

I actually thank you for making a multi-optional poll. I love many X-Women, and I always love beign able to vote for someone else but Jean (who is my favorite out of all).

So, I am very happy you're not familiar with how polls work here, RachelRules

Also, the fact that Kitty wasn't included in that list while Dazzler and X-23 were is just insulting. There, I said it :tongue:

[Grapeweasel]

Deadpool......

[NielsVanEekelen]

This poll just lacks the Magik touch.

[Fatguy]

This poll definitely makes me realize how little I like the major X-Ladies.

[Valeria Kementari]

X-23?? A clone of wolverine with no personality? Who can like that thing?

[Fatguy]

X-23?? A clone of wolverine with no personality? Who can like that thing?

The people who have read stories with her in them.

[frog]

Poor Rachel. She's even behind Dazzler!

[Pach!]

The people who have read stories with her in them.

how dare you suggest people not dismiss characters with overly simplistic statements! is that not how its supposed to be done?

[Fatguy]

how dare you suggest people not dismiss characters with overly simplistic statements! is that not how its supposed to be done?

NORMALLY it's how it's done, but I'm a rebel, Pach. You know this.

[Jack Flash]

I am going to vote Faded or Roguishgurl or JeangreyDp or Jayme.

[That JonoGuy]

Siryn has pretty much been consistently my favorite X-Woman.

[Chaos_Alfa]

X-23?? A clone of wolverine with no personality? Who can like that thing?

Read her mini's Innocence Lost and Target X (especially Target X) and then tell me if she has no personality.

[KrullWall]

Really shadowcat isn't on here. REALLY!

[RachelRules]

My bad! Should definitely have included Shadowcat. Still ticked off at the X-Men scribes for not bringing her back yet.

[Seres]

I am going to vote Faded or Roguishgurl or JeangreyDp or Jayme.

I see how it is. What's wrong with Waterlily and Creaky?

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Shadowcat is the only possible answer to this question. Without a doubt my favorite X-character of any gender.

[Bamf25]

Of the ones up there Rogue, but your poll is biased by Missing Kitty, she consistantly ranks as a fan fav character.

[scouse mouse]

Lady Mastermind 4EVA!!11!!!1

[Dagger]

Kitty Pryde. represent Jew pride.

[WWWD]

Deadpool......

Hecks yeah... Deadpool in the classic Marvel Girl uniform ftw

[Seres]

NO!!!! WTF SERES!!!

Men shouldn't be allowed to have female usernames! It throws me off the hunt.

[jarrod]

Poor Rachel. She's even behind Dazzler!
They're tied now. Claremanzon victims unite! <3 <3

Jean Gloriana Grey Summers

[Slung]

Jean Gloriana Grey Summers

Awesome!!!

[Steven F.]

Jean Gloriana Grey Summers

There simply was no other choice was there?

[Slung]

There simply was no other choice was there?

Definitely.

But you guys are letting me down. Rogue is now ahead of Jean. Pentangle formation!

[Fatguy]

lol Storm is behind Psylocke.

[Steven F.]

That is absurd! Rogue should not be winning!

[The Great Grape]

Emma Frost by a safe margin.

I liked her as a Hellfire Club villainess to begin with.Her sort of half turn into an X-heroine has been pulled off well.I enjoy her inner conflicts as well as what she's done for Scott as a character in making him more interesting and less prone to blandness for me.

She's my #1 reason for picking up an X-book,honestly.

They've never been official X-men.
Hear that Faded? :P

[darknessatnoon]

Where is Sage? This stupid poll is invalid.

[justinkos91]

Hear that Faded? :P

I'm not sure if the X-corps count though...

[Prodigy55]

Monet was an official X-Man when she was like borrowed from X-Corps for one story.

[jarrod]

Where is Sage? This stupid poll is invalid.
She's being saved for my favorite X-House poll. I expect a tight race between Sage, Dyson Sphere and Crosstime Lighthouse.

[Rowenna]

Anna Marie FTW

[otipep_90]

Thats because this poll has firewalls Sage can't penetrate.

[Slung]

Sage doesn't penetrate. She is penetrated.

Her USB port is made for docking.

[jarrod]

All X-Corporation members are really official X-Men. Monet getting "passed around" has nothing to do with it.

Well I stand corrected. :tongue:

To bad she only lets the Crystal Palace penetrate her USB port...

The same as one of the greatest characters (and I do like Jean), can in real years be dead almost as often as she is alive since her creation.

[psycwave]

Pryde15, I must admit that is one of your greatest signs yet.

[Fatguy]

The same as one of the greatest characters (and I do like Jean), can in real years be dead almost as often as she is alive since her creation.

Exactly like that "greatest" character! I'm glad we see eye to eye on who the PRETENDER best X-Women are, Bamf.

[Bamf25]

Exactly like that "greatest" character! I'm glad we see eye to eye on who the PRETENDER best X-Women are, Bamf.

So we agree 2 of the best X-woman are either dead or in limbo depending on who you ask.

[Fatguy]

No no, we agree that something cast off like a dirty sock cant be considered "The Best".

[Slung]

So, are you saying the best X-Woman would be one who:

Has been defined by an angsty relationship, was in a coma when her biggest fan was writing her and spent the entire decade of the 90's whiny?

Has murdered, raped, committed animal cruelty and twisted the minds of children to support her plastic surgery addiction?

Has been an offensive racial stereotype and dressed like a tart for most of her existence while doing or saying nothing interesting in that same time?

Has spent the last two decades as a cardboard cutout of the character she used to be and spent the last few years as a domestic housewife?

I'm sure we can make a case for NONE of the X-Characters to be great.

Please tell me if any of these are the greatest X-Women?

[Fatguy]

[Slung]

lol In the X-World, there's not a lot of MAJOR female characters I really like. I used to LOVE Rogue, but that's soured some over the last few years. Other than that it's the lower tiered ladies I love. Like X-23, MONET, Armor, Siryn, Amelia Voght....

[Slung]

He said he likes the coma one!

He said "maybe". You're supposed to be defending Jean's honor Hiffy!

[RoguishGurl]

I am going to vote Faded or Roguishgurl or JeangreyDp or Jayme.

X-23
You are on my good list.

We can partially agree, I like all these characters, and feel that they do deserve more of a spotlight. But when push comes to shove, in a popularity contest, Kitty would kick their asses. :biggrin:

[spiderwire]

Storm is my favorite, even though I like several of the other gals. Storm is like the prom queen who sits at the lunch table with the nerds. She is like the super model who visits hospitals in the middle of the night to avoid the media. Storm could be anything she wants to be in the Marvel U but she chooses to be an X-Man.

That is the cutest interpretation of Storm I have ever heard. :wink: Storm is my favorite as well. Perhaps one day I will pitch my Storm:By the Goddess mini series idea to Marvel. I know a lot of people bitch and moan about how 'perfect' she is, but really, she's just an amazing character. I would love to explore her maternal family history and pair her up with Monet and Northstar to make sure people don't get intimidated by her regal bearing. I mean, she can make a speech to world leaders one minute, save a country from famine after lunch, have an epic super-battle against Death to save her husband's soul in the afternoon and then be gettin' down in a Tokyo nightclub drinking champagne at night. What is not to love?

Jean, Storm, Rouge and Psylocke are all from my favorite era of the X-men since I started reading in the mid 90s. They will always be my favorite.

I have always said the iconic and most popular x-women were storm, phoenix, rogue, and psylocke. And I would have to add shadowcat as well. Any fan new or old can identify them 5 as the forefront of the women. In the new age, white queen
Is up there with them, with pixie and armor right behind. I miss those 4 together, especially the sister relationship between ororo and liza.

[x_goalkeeper]

Emma Frost is my favourite X-Woman..

Maybe the biggest reason is because she shows a different way to be a hero.. I like characters that test what is considered normal.. not doing things by the Professor Xavier tradition, but still accomplish the mission for the good of mutantkind.

[kk1]

She should only be in her early twenties at the most.

Her body doesn't age physically when she's dead. In movies, people who have been dead for hundreds if not thousands of years never look that old when they are resurrected. Because she spent several years total dead, she might be even physically younger than Iceman.

Yes, but she should be around 30 by now.

[Almighty Pejo]

Jean Grey was 24 years old when she died, and everything since has been a manifestation/reincarnation of the original Phoenix, not Jean, so I would have to put her at an everlasting 24 year old physical body. Her consciousness is much older, but the physical form which she inhabits will always be 24 years old.

[kk1]

Why, time doesn't move in comics. If the writers were smart she'd still be a teenager.

What a bizarre theory. In my experience, things that spend time dead tend to ROT.

Yeah, but once her body is fully resurrected and healed, it will revert to its previous physical state and will not show any sign of aging.

Jean = Phoenix

She still ages, as do all Phoenix. But only when she's "alive"... she was the same age as Scott and Warren originally, after she came back she was maybe 2 years younger, if she came back now it'd probably be another year or so.

You also have to remember that mentally, Jean and Scott are 10 years older than their bodies as well, thanks to their trips to the future via Rachel/Nathan. Physically when she died last, Jean was in her late 20s, but mentally she'd be nearing 40.

[Almighty Pejo]

I would think it's both as this thread is demonstrating.Well, I guess you have a point there. I don't see the problem with having her at the age of 24 upon her death, however. I think it fits well. She was old enough to be considered a woman, but still young enough to be considered a girl, or I am showing my age at thinking 24 is still a girl. But to each his own. :)

Physically when she died last, Jean was in her late 20s, but mentally she'd be nearing 40.I'm with you on all of this (especially on the mental versus physical age issue), except I don't think Jean ages physically anymore. If you do view the cocoon retcon as pure truth and the new Phoenix/Jean placed the old body in a cocoon which hatched and continued to age, I can see your point of view. But I am of the mind that Jean Grey, the mortal woman, ceased to exist as of Uncanny X-Men 100-101, and as such, became an immortal reincarnation of her form powered by the Phoenix Force. Of course, I could be wrong on this and she really was two different bodies linked by the same mind, but I think it cheapens the endurance of forever.

I was thinking that as well, and the age... DQ her, hehehe

Meh, I don't see how anyone can dig Storm these days - imo she hasn't been relevant or had any decent plots since the late 80s.

Anyone want to prove me wrong by providing some suggested reading? :D

All time, Mystique

Current, Emma Frost/ X-23

Frost was one of the few characters Fraction was actually doing well with, so it sucked how he basically just abandoned the more interesting side of her storyline in favor of just skipping straight to Dark Reign and leaving far too much unsaid.

Off the top of my head, the best stuff with Storm recently was X-Men: Worlds Apart. Written by Chris Yost, with great characterization and a good enough resolution.

I'm glad Jean and Storm are competing for 1st place. There's still taste within X-Fandom, I see :biggrin:

OK, gettin' back OT. Storm, Phoenix, Rogue, & Psylocke leadin'... no surprise there. I'm guessin' the "other" vote is mostly for Kitty, at least it was for me. I chose it as a protest for her not being included. Would've thought Emma would be doin' better tho, where's all the luv gone? And HELLO X-23, who knew? That Wolverine truly has the Midas touch. Polaris is doin' awright, but would've liked to see her placing higher. Which leaves us Dazz & Rache... poor Ali, there's no justice in this world it seems.

nuClaremont is an aberration. Even when he did good stuff in X-Treme/Uncanny, he wrote an awful Rachel. :/

Actually, his Reload Rachel reminded me quite a bit of his Outback Dazzler, both pretty much came off as whiney, bratty buffoons. And weirdly his super-capable power dyke Dazzler in NEX was slightly reminiscent of Rachel's setup in the original Excalibur. :/

Sadly, you are quite right. He loves his archetypes and shoehorns his characters into them. It's ... odd ... that Dazzler and Rachel share this unfortunate connection.

He created Rachel and penned Dazzler's first appearance in X-Men. I don't understand why he would so obviously switch their archetypes unless that's his take on "development"?

It really was like a step backwards for both. Especially in (Outback/Reload) Uncanny, where two of the least "rookie" characters were shamelessly shoehorned into the role. After (what I've been told of) Dazzler's solo and what Davis/Weinberg did with Rachel, it was just jarring and didn't ring true in either case.

Wow, look at all this common ground! <3 <3

For me it was more the color. P!NK was def the wrong direction for the character. I did kinda like Eaton's (brief) take though.
