Dirty Deeds!
"Dirty Deeds" is a series of threads where a discussion can be held about the morally questionable, or outright evil acts of characters in comics. It might be a discussion about times a hero crossed a moral line they shouldn't have, or a discussion of a villain's most horrific acts in their history, but the premise remains the same.
Where possible, a poll will be included to vote upon said character's "dirtiest deed".
Please do remember that there are no wrong answers, this is all a matter of opinion. Since everyone has a different set of morals, please try and respect differences in people's own beliefs.

In this edition of Dirty Deeds we’re going to take a look at a hero who’s been around the X-Men since the earliest days. Some would call him a spoiled playboy, and others fear that he may very well be one of the harbingers of the end of the world. This time out, we’re going to look at…
Warren Worthington III…
ANGEL!!!
