...grah.
He had so much potential to be really done well. The only reason it's him is that he was an X-man no one needed at the moment, and I think that's a crap reason. Have him kill an important character, or at least a character who's meaningless in today's society, What about Dazzler? She's back to being a Disco Star. But Northstar was likely to come to more of a center stage as the issue of Gay Marraige and other Gay rights issues begin to pop up more and more frequently.
I have to say, this gets me annoyed at Millar... even moreso cuz it seems like he's a bit of a phobe, now that he's killed off the ONLY openly gay superhero in the 616 universe, and he kept calling Wolverine's costume the "Gay disco bunny" costume.... but now im ranting....
