thought Gambit had been freed by then. Hmm....guess I'll have to make him because he's my girlfriend's favorite character, either that or wait for Messiah for that character.......

Nice to see the New X-Men era X-23 here! It'll be nice to see how close I got my fan version (when she was between NYX and her debut in Uncanny X-Men) to this version that is a few months past that time of her life.

Woot! Mammomax!

Was worried you guys would leave him out. Especially since I get the feeling you guys really don't want to cover some of the more unloved characters.

Did we ever get a list for YA/Runaways?

Also, the X-Men list is awesome. Can't wait for Madrox, Nightcrawler, Domino, Archangel, Caliban, Rogue, Iceman, and so many more.

I don't know how you'd get that idea. Have you SEEN some of the people I've included in these book rosters?

Well, no De-Powered Mutants version of New Warriors from Civil War.

No Agents of Atlas, even though they played a part in Civil War.

No love for Butterball, Ape-X or Speedball (Monkey) who were in the Avengers: Initiative around that time. And so on, and so on. Just seemed like it.

You might want to look harder at the list of inmates on the Raft. I haven't heard of half of those and as someone else pointed out, a lot of them are B-list villains at best.

Your counterpoint doesn't even make sense in this context.

For one, none of them are "B-List Villains", and other than major baddies most villains arn't A-Listers. Because villains don't tend to get the same focus or development love.

Plus The New New Warriors had their own book that spawned out of Civil War. That lasted longer than stuff that's given focus in the books, like the awful Nextwave team. While they only had Civil War tie-ins, the Agents of Atlas also lasted quite a long time and was an award winning book that brought back some of Marvel's golden age characters. So yeah, some of the stuff being left out is weird.

So what you mean is that we haven't included many of YOUR favorites, Beast. :)

Never rule out the power of bonus content, DLC, etc. I've got a lot in the works. But I doubt Ape-X is going to be in there. Gorilla Man, though? Very much more likely.
