Hey!  It was  a joke!

I'm from New Orleans also so I'm very aware how our city is shown.
You are right: they think that everytime is Mardi Gras, Everyone speaks 
french, everyone eats gumbo, everyone has those stupid accents...
and everyone lives in the French Quarter...

The Golf Coast Avengers was a joke, but I wouldn't mind seeing a team or
a solo hero based in New Orleans, but it would have to be written by someone
who has actually been there.

Or maybe the White Queen really did take her over, or is sharing brain
space with her (plenty of room up there, and lots of air - anyone who
runs into combat wearing a bathing suit isn't pushing too many neurons)
and is just influencing her - thus the lust thing with Cyclops and the

   In reading the x-books, there is a big mess as regards time travel,
alternate futures, who came from which future etc. I feel that a file
on this subject should be made. This newsgroup already has file on dangling
subplots of the x-books, files giving a synopsis of X-isssues, and a file
on Rogue, why not a file on time travel?
   It could start out with a brief theory on time travel, then a list of
oall the characters who came from the future, which "future" they came from,
 the issue, etc. This would at least help in sorting everything out.
    Hope this suggestion gets the ball rolling...

Have we actually seen one future, or are their multiple possibilities ahead of the X-men?

I believe its the latter, so here's my theory.  
Cable is Stryfe in everything except his time line.  Stryfe is simply another time travelling Cable, from another line, and is back here trying to gain power in his future world.  While Cable comes from his own line and trying to do what he thinks is best for mutantkind.

They both have that vicious streak, but one has control and one doesn't.  They use the pre-emptive strike in their campaigns against those groups they see as hinderances.  And of course, they look almost exactly alike (do they have opposite cybernetic eyes?)

Obscure Trivia Lad says that it was the last issue of Crystar, which he
believes was #11.  One of Marvel's best-selling books, to be sure.
Actually, it wasn't all of Alpha Flight, just three members (Shaman,
Puck, and Northstar, Obscure Trivia Lad thinks).  They travelled to
Crystar's world through Shaman's magic pouch.

Oh, JOY! Rogue questions! And, I guess when I see that the same question is
asked more than once in one newsreading, it must not be just a case of
localized ignorance, but Something that People Really Want to Know. As such,
I deliver.

As determined on a thread a few weeks ago, Rogue's last use of her power was
post-Siege Perilous. She took Worm's powers off-screen when saving Zaladane's
slimed slaves from the falling tower.

The man was Moses Magnum (who first appeared in Giant-Sized Spiderman,
and was allegedly disolved by some super-nerve gas. Quite a talent for
survival, that guy has, no?)

In the Japan issues of Xmen, it makes no mention of APOCALYPSE, he just
says that he was "bound to the forces of the Earth" or some crap like
that.  I don't recall where he appeared next, so maybe it was mentioned
there. (Maybe he has the mutant ability to survive anything, ooops, no

WARNING: This is my theory:

But to understand why this (could) happens, you have to know how and where
Ms. M. got her powers.  She was given the ability to turn herself into a
Kree-variant lifeform.  From this she extracted the powers she manifested.
In other words, Ms M.'s powers were her ability to change herself.  Once,
Rogue absorbed her powers, Rogue got <permanently> changed by them.  Or
at least this was always the way I understood that little accident.

This could have come from the fact that when Ms. M. received her powers
she was a normal human, and got boosted 'so' much.  Rogue already started 
as a super-powered mutant.

	Hey X-friends. I've been trying lately to find the new series of X-men
toys, and I've only been able to find a few (a nearby store had only a couple
of each). So far I've bought: Mr. Sinister, Forge, and 2 Wolverines (blue/
yellow costume from around #275, also one with the tiger-striped costume).
	Does anyone know when the rest of these toys will be sold? Are they 
being released only a couple at a time to build interest? I'm sure they'll be
out by Christmas, especially to capitalize on the success of the cartoon, but
I wonder if they'll be out sooner.
	For those of you who haven't seen them (and care), these are the 
characters they'll be making toys of, if I remember correctly: Cable, Warpath,
Kane, Gideon, Stryfe, Forearm, Shatterstar, Weapon X (Wolverine with tubes 
sticking out of him), Iceman, Gambit, Banshee, Sabretooth, Magneto, Sauron,
and Prof. X. These should be interesting, but I wish they hadn't catered so 
much to the fanboys by making three different Wolverines -- why not make more
*different* characters, like Bishop or Rogue? Oh well, at least the toys aren't

Hiya.
I remember in the original Official Handbookd of the MU, Cyclops power
source for his "optic blasts" was unknown, though it was speculated
that he may be opening up a dimensional doorway and drawing force from
there.  Any easy way to clear this up would be just one shot at Bishop;
if he generates it himself, Bishop could take it and redirect it 
(could be interesting team-work...), if not...well, it seems that Bishop
could probably survive being slammed through a few walls..=)

In response to the request concerning feelings about Jae's work in Namor:

I think it's just fabulous.  Last ish Namor did some serious trouncing on 
Master Khan, with a guest appearance from ole Doc Doom himself, looking quite
well drawn.  Personally, I like it when a typically "generic" character like
Dr. Doom is drawn differently than he has been in the last 20 years (see FF
#350 for more details - LONG LIVE SIMONSON!)  I would very much like to see
him work on other characters to see what kinds of improvements he might make...
He's got gobs of potential (collect him collect him this is your last chance)
