From Hayseed to X-Man: Cannonball Appreciation

[Justin K.]

I like how Ultimate Cannonball was portrayed as slim
He didn't become big and buff, not that it's a bad thing...

[Justin K.]

For you Cannyball fans

Nice work Justin... but Cannonball on what appears to be his death bed?

Not Death Bed, gazing dreamingly at Iceman

Ah... okay...

Anyway Cannonball's been a fav of mine since the New Mutants days. Too bad his team leader position couldn't be transferred with him as he progressed to X-Men status.

It's hard to be leader being on a team with Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm, and Jean Grey

Maybe he could've when he was on Rogue's team in X-Men.

Wolverine is the best at what he does... which is actions and berserker stuff, not exactly a leader type.

The others I completey understand though.

That was around the period where Wolverine had no nose
Cannonball helped him out. I wonder if Sam is affected by Tabby's death
them having a relationship before, or if he even knows

You'd find out at the funeral I guess.

If an ex of mine died, I'd feel some sorrow... but not as much as family or current friends passing away.

Did they officially break up, or did their lives just drift apart?

I think regardless of the goodbyes or no, it's basically the same. And in that situation personally I would feel some grief and sorrow but not to the degree of family or current friends passing.

This is my favorite picture of Cannonball.. Paul Walker can be cast for this Cannonball!

I love Cannonball. Despite him having the grossest costumes in X-Franchise history.

The "C is for Cookie" styled outfit is kind of heinous.


The Madureia issue where he takes Gladiator's hardest punch, and then redirects the kinetic energy from it back into him, totally pwning him?

That's when Sam stopped being one of the kids for me, hands down. He was an X-Man, and he should be taking s*** from no one.

[KrullWall]

YEEE HAWWW! I love me some good ole fashion Cannonball

Yeah... I don't see Rogue as a leader at all and then you have Cable and Cannonball on her team. Cannonball really should have been leader. But I guess the whole point with Rogue as leader was the team failed.
