It's Not Easy Being Blue: Nightcrawler Appreciation

[Drelion]

^ You know what's funny about all that, though? I remember Drelion saying something awhile ago, back when we were talking about the crap-ness of superhero girlfriends, that was like, "Where you see limitations, I see possibilities" (sorry D--I hope I'm not mis-paraphrasing you!)

Haha! Close! Someone said he couldn't (or shouldn't) have a "normal" GF because she would be a liability. This never stopped Spidey! Sure Gwen got killed...ok bad example....lol MJ went through hell and back with all his foes but what is a super hero if not there in the nick of time to save the damsel??? lol

I'm posting this pic not because it does anything to answer my question, but rather the sake of both Kurt's Adidas track pants and pirate shirt. :P

Muwhahahaaa! Awww.... how cute. I need to track down a copy of this.

[Drelion]

Oooh! Lookie!

[TheMutantJinx]

Oooh! Lookie!

This is pretty great--I love how dynamic it is.

^I like Kurt's fangs in that pic. So much sexier than on any of Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, Robert Pattinson or even Alexander Skarsgard. (Yeah, I went there--I'm sick of vampires! Where have all the sexy aliens and robots gone??? Can't a girl have a little variety? LOL)

You are so pushing the fic lately--I love it! Especially if it gets you writing... ;) For myself, I don't know if I could write Mystique... She makes as little sense to me in her motivations, etc. as just about anyone I can think of. I did make a feeble effort at some point to try and figure out what her deal could possibly be, but she's so contradictory that I gave up and now I just think about her as sort of irredeemably crazy. I think she may suffer/have suffered from male comic book writers' difficulties writing a "strong" woman of any complexity... But I dunno. /shrug

Lol, yeah well... I find her just as diffficult. Thats why I focused on her so briefly in "New Year". I understand how she works and speaks (I hope) but why she does these things, I really forget. To me CC was one of the few to really make her not just another Wolverine adversary, she lost much of her personality when she became soley a Wolverine villian. Carey was the last to really delve into it, too bad he did nothing with Kurt and her. I'll see what I can do, though. Not feeling too much pressure or anything for it to be really good. Nope... >>

Oooh! Lookie!

That pic awesome makes me think of this one.

I've always been intrigued by the Kurt/Mystique relationship. I remember a scene where Mystique and Kurt are hanging off a cliff and Rogue can only save one. She chooses to let go of the rope instead of Rogue having to make that choice and supposedly falls to her death. I don't remember what issue that was from.

Somewhere I have a fairly good drawing an artist friend did of Mystique with baby Kurt if I can find it.


On a different note, I really like conceptual pictures of the uniforms the X-Men might wear if they really existed. Much more practical (except Emma) and protecting than either spandex or leather. Found on DA here - http://pardoart.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d4qwfnj




He has the Logan a little closer to his original height compared to the others than he is often drawn today, which gives him browning points from me

I remember seeing that on DA a while ago. I like the artists style but I still prefer the colored spandex. I know, I know... :-p

Aw snap! That would be awesome! The Hand are such convenient villains that way--I love how it's perfectly okay to kill entire armies of them until it's someone you actually care about who's been resurrected, at which point it always seems like it's pretty easy to snap out of it... Oh well.

Lol, I dunno, he may come out all twisted. I hate to say it but I'd be kinda afraid if any of the arcitects resurrecting him... I can see Kurt returning and start to drink heavily and beat up prositutes to be edgy. Watch the lapsed and bitter catholic be all dark and edgy.

Love that pic. I don't think I've ever seen that one before

Anyway, this gal has the right idea. Look where the eyes wander...

Lol. I have that figure too. His tail is wrapped around the matching Storm figure. It's the only way I can keep them both standing up

Aww. Cute. I have not one piece of Kurt collectibles that isnt a comic or card. I should get at least one figure but Im thrifty. :-[



I never know what to make of the more bishi Kurt renditions, I can recognize that the drawings are really good but it seems wrong to me.






I guess they are just more Evo inspired.

Well, it could give us an excuse to see Kurt smack the shit out of Wolverine for an issue or two before snapping out of it.

"I glad you're yourself again, Elf. I just don't think I could've-"

WHACK!

"OW!-- The Fuck--?!"

"Sorry. I had a bit of a relapse....

WHACK!

"Sorry..."

WHACK!

Well, Logan did always think Kurt was too soft on people. He may appreciate it.

I always find those pics a bit off-putting as well, probably because Kurt comes out looking super jail-bait-ey... Pretty, but too pretty.

If we go with Mystique as Kurt's mother, as in recent continuity, I can't believe no one has figured out that the most likely candidate for a furry father is Grover

Hmm...well he's a man with a sense of humour, and he did date a woman with feathers (though I don't think he had Gonzo's chicken fetish).
