So I loved Aguirre-Sacasa's origin story on both Angel and Iceman, and it got me thinking - they're both two of the original X-Men, they're both not getting as much attention as they used to, and they're both X-Men who are (in terms of personality) more similar to one another than the other O5.

They are my two favourite X-Men, but Angel wins by a smidge. Although I didn't like the origin mini that came out for Warren. It would have been better with some established characters like Candy Southern and Cameron Hodge in it. Plus the art was awful; everyone looked like they had bulimia.

Iceman is probably my second favorite X-man, and Warren is not my first.
I like Bobby because his powers are fun and they just get more fun. He also has a cool look and personality.XPOTM:September 2010

However, Warren did seem to be up for a little light bondage and roleplaying:

Agent_Torpor; Ooooooh, Angel's ex-girlfriend Candy Southern. I see. She had my sympathy but I never felt much for her.
And Angel.

She was one of the better girlfriend characters. Truly fleshed out without some sort of witchcraft chicanery (i.e. Sefton). Originally Posted by Astonishing!

I love when polls like this are ties because I enjoy both characters at least a little bit.
They're probably my two favorites of the originals.XPOTM:September 2010

Iceman is pretty cool IMHO. I find Angel has his head in the clouds too much.
