Do X-men fans like it when characters stack new powers on top of their normal mutant abilities? Doesn't that detract from the thematic significance of being a mutant?
>>155130130>thinking x-men readers give a shit about themes outside of constant sex and shipping wars
>>155130130To be quite honest with you OP. I don't really care as long as its a good story.
>>155130143When was the last time it made for a good story? Pheonix? Archangel?
>>155130204Never
>>155130143You are not a bickering nerd, strange
Being a mutant shouldn't be your only thing. At least you should train your body so you can fight effectively when your powers are disabled or malfunctioning.
>>155130461What's the point in bickering? No one will change their mind on a topic.
>>155130130So I... kind of like it. I liked the venom symbiote on Scorpion as a temporary thing, since we know he picks up powers when he bonds with people, so he should have kept scorpion powers when he went back to Eddie. I liked uhh shit what else did I like... existing powered heroes becoming lanterns, kind of... yknow.. it's neat sometimes. It's particularly neat when it's very asymmetrical, either an already powerful guy getting a very small boost, or a guy with a piddlin' power finally getting something better, like- OH, like Rogue! Rogue's power is just absorbing, no big whoop, but then when she permanently absorbed Ms. Marvel, that was a neat add-on. or Phoenix, I guess.

Being a flying brick is pretty much essential to her whole thing now>Magik's mystical abilities and Soulsword are way more prominent than her teleportation powers>Dani Moonstar is more known as a Valkyrie than as a third string psychicHell even Wolverine's claws weren't originally an actual mutant power, they were glove weapons. Adn then they got retconned into surgically implantedAnd then came the bone claws
