Then he had Xavier say that Creed had the "popular support of the people". First he had Jean refer to "Stryfe's assassination attempt on your life". Lobdell's scripting really had a problem with redundancies in issue 299. Do you guys think that it was decided from the beginning that Creed was Sabretooth's son?īetween Asteroid M, Starcore, & Graymalkin, space stations in the Marvel Universe don't seem to stay in space for too long ). but nothing about the Upstarts made sense ) BTW. The same writers that didn't notice that Neophyte *left* the Acolytes and wasn't supposed to be their constant member.Ĭreed's inclusion into the Upstarts made no sense. It's the later writers (who weren't paying attention) made it into a name.
Note that in this story, it's obviously his rank, not codename. Seems like a very poor way to add some history/importance to a new character. I'm also curious if anyone's ever compiled a list of mutants who were revealed to have supposed to have been in Xavier's first class. I also wasn't in love with the x-titles as I had been, so that may have factored in. Moira saw evidence of the Legacy Virus in X-Factor #90.
#Stryfes strike file cards upgrade#
Iceman got his power upgrade in Uncanny X-Men #291.He also mentions Magneto plotting something related to Cape Citadel, a prelude to Uncanny X-Men #1. He had photos of some of the All New, All Different team (Storm, Colossus, and Nightcrawler), but considered their international citizenships to be too complicated to deal with at the moment. A flashback shows Xavier going over the files of his potential recruits with Moira.The locals in France do not trust the X-Men after they were framed in Uncanny X-Men #200.Shinobi Shaw killed his father in X-Factor #67.Trevor Fitzroy killed the Hellions in Uncanny X-Men #282.Despite what Kelly said at the time, he says now that he doesn't blame the X-Men for his wife's death. Creed brings up the death of Senator Kelly's wife, from Uncanny X-Men #247.That seems to be a reference to X-Factor #83. It's said that the unity concert in that issue happened "less than a week" after "a young mutant was nearly beaten to death on the very spot" (Central Park). Professor X is still recovering from the assassination attempt in Uncanny X-Men #294.That's also the story where Fabian Cortez "murdered" Magneto. Asteroid M crashed to Earth in X-Men #3.that one, especially as it relates to Illyana's sickness. See the Considerations on X-Men #20-23 regarding placement of this arc vs. This therefore takes place before both the back-up in Uncanny X-Men #17 and X-Men Unlimited #1. And Romita doesn't get the whole team from that era back together, but we do get a guest appearance by Nightcrawler. It's worth noting that Romita was on this book one hundred issues ago, in another story that took place in France and dealt with the question of mutants and Magneto.
(which is not that long and has a fair number of interruptions). The X-Men rush directly from the television show to France, where Wolverine has detected an Acolyte presence, for issue #300. That's true of Creed, Noah Dubois (Kelly's aide), and the waitress. On the downside, Scott Lobdell uses a Claremontian tactic of introducing characters and dropping hints that don't get fully explained, and (arguably unlike Claremont) it seems that the creators didn't really have any idea where they were going with the characters when they were introduced. As with last issue, this book is really on track to deal with the mutant metaphor head on, something that editor Bob Harras and Chris Claremont seemed to come into conflict about towards the end of Claremont's run.
