Morrison's Emma was brilliant. Some of the other options were/are great as well, but nothing beats top class breeding.
This is ALMOST a one horse race. Peter David with Madrox.
I say almost, because Kyle/Yost do awesome with X-23. something I would have thought impossible when I first heard of the character.
Oh my god, Canon! *masturbates furiously*

I'll always love Joss Whedon for bringing Kitty back to the forefront, even though I may not always agree with what he's done with her character.
Carey's Rogue, PAD's Madrox and Morrison's Emma (although I prefer his Jean) are my favorites.
As much as I love what Yost and Kyle had done with X-23 and the way Carey has made Rogue awesome again, I had to go for Morrison's Emma.
Quietly's bizarre desgin apart, she was extremely fabulous then.
PAD's Madrox blows them all away. I wuvs me some PAD-Jamie.
Carey with Rogue by far.Her persona her life,her conflicts and leading the X-Men all of this has been top notch writing.
PAD's development of Madrox has been nothing short of brilliant. It took about 3 pages of the Madrox mini to turn him into a character capable of supporting a book.
Kyle & Yost's use of X-23 has been very impressive, and very restrained, in my opinion. Still a work in progress, though. There's still a lot to do with her, and hopefully it will happen with her current teammates, in some form. Of course, you have to include the two X-23 minis as well. Both very good, and the second one, especially, is integral to the character that they're creating.
No write ins yet? I figured the deus ex triplets (one-liner Layla, Darwin Cameron and Tessie-Jo) might get a nod by now?
Morrison's Emma of course, he did her best from all the Emma's I've read.
Though I do like some of the others, especially Claremont's Betsy, I can't help but love her. Rogue and Madrox under Carey and David are great as well.
Whedon's Kitty is fine, but I find myself irritated with her sometimes, her and Peter tend to scream Buffy and Angel lite to me at times. Actually it comes up every so often that I feel that his characters resemble some of the ones from the Buffy-verse quite a bit.
I thought this thread was going to be about Lockheed, Butter Rum, Ms. Lion, (Mr. Muggles maybe?) etc.
Is it wrong that I still think of Lockheed as a pet now that he's super smart?
Anyways, Morrison's Emma gets my vote. He made something amazing out of her.
I chose Jamie under PAD, because is there really any other??? Not for me.:p
Although, I have Layla under PAD as a close #2.
