Let's talk about Vaughan leaving a mark on UXM. Let's talk about a little tragedy. I just got done reading "The Most Dangerous Game" TPB. Something interesting occured to me.
So Longshot is not at the Trisk with Magneto. Big deal, really. I mean Magneto's followers could have done with Polaris without any help from Longshot and Magneto and Polaris are locked up in the same cell so where does Longshot fall in all of this?
Picture this. All hell breaks out at the Trisk. The brotherhood, The X-Men, The Ultimates/SHIELD. All of them fighting to keep the status quo. What if Colossus is inside and he finds Longshot. He's not gonna be happy with him. What if Magneto is there for the encounter? Obviously, he's not gonna be happy with Colossus. So what if we have Longshot/Magneto squaring off against Colossus. Going with the whole theme of "life-like" deaths where underdeveloped characters die before their time. How about if Magneto uses his mutant ability (You know his ability to manipulate magnetic waves, leading to the manipulation of metal.) to end Colossus with a little backup luck from Longshot.
You can hate me or disagree with me all you want. But let's think about what's gonna be accomplished.
-It's always good to give the arch-enemy another excuse to be the arch-enemy.
-Like Gwen and Beast... It just happens that way.
-It would probably be one of the more touching aspects of the arc. Colossus would be the most tragic hero and he definitely can play the role.
Probably won't happen but I won't lie, I'd love to see it.
