silver age x men is good in that if you let someone with exactly my sensibilities but like ten times as much talent write an adaptation like a novel or miniseries based on it it would be absolutely pure literary gold but the comics as they exist are like not that good and kind of annoying actually

you start with cyclops and get him to level 50 because you want his XP synergy. i start with cyclops and get him to level 60 because he's my favorite. we are not the same.

X-Men Blue: Origins #1 (2023) MARVEL

I know some comic book readers are upset to learn Mystique and Destiny are Nightcrawler’s biological parents, but personally, I think that it is fantastic. When I learned of Chris Claremont’s idea to make the couple Kurt’s parent years ago, I thought it was strange, cool, and would NEVER be allowed at Marvel Comics. So as a queer kid disappointed that this revelation was scrapped in favor of making Azazel Kurt’s father, I found this retcon especially delightful. Is it convoluted? Yes. Is it awesome? Also yes. Sorry, not sorry, Internet trolls. This type of inclusivity and acceptance are exactly what I’ve loved about X-Men for decades. Kudos to Si Spurrier for making it canon. 👏

hi i haven’t talked about psi-sensitive scott in a while so here are some panels with commentary

pretty vague tbh, but it definitely implies that what scott sensed was psionic in nature

this one DEFINITELY implies that scott has some form of psi-sensitivity; he protests when jean says that anyone with sensitivity could have felt it bc he didn’t, and she offers a possible explanation for why he couldn’t. if her explanation is correct, it means that scott’s sensitivity may be imperfect and that sinister (or charles lbr) may have been aware of it and partially suppressed it, but it’s also possible that jean just underestimated the amount of sensitivity needed to pick up on what she felt

this is the best evidence for psi-sensitive scott; he really just states outright that he can sense some forms of psionic activity

…and well enough that he can identify jean in a fight, possibly because of their old rapport and the familiarity he would have gained with her mind because of it

given that this is really all the information we have on the topic, there are any number of ways to interpret what’s going on or where any of this came from; i like to think it’s less something innate as it is something he’s developed over years of telepathic abuse and manipulation, sharing a telepathic rapport with jean, being trained by jean to sharpen his sensitivity, and playing host to the phoenix force. i doubt he can do anything with it other than sense things going on around him, and even then probably only very significant activity, but it’s an interesting little thing that crops up every now and then without much explanation.
