Even the ones that have already been confirmed won't happen because Marvel doesn't know who will fight who because even they don't know what will hapen in AVX

You make it sound like it is going to be as much of a mess as I thought it would be. Any idea how they are deciding the matchups and the outcome?

So Cable is like ultimately powerful now since he doesn't have to use his TK to hold back the Virus?

We'll see. Not many writers have a good conception of what a powerful telekinetic could do. We may get an underwhelming 'big TK burst that is scary' type effect rather than what Morrison or Claremont would have done.

I'm going to say something crazy and suggest that Storm won't fight Thor - the fight would be too short unless PIS/CIS was involved; every time Storm has gone against Thor, she's lost immediately, and Enchantress proved that winds created by Norse magic overwhelms her. I'm thinking it may be a Valkyrie vs Storm re-match.

I think Cyclops will go against Captain America, just because they are both the leaders of their respective communities.

Since you said X-Men character and not X-Men member, I would like to see Tempo /tempo/29-13312/ with the Phoenix Force. With her manipulation over time boosted to cosmic levels, it would be interesting to see who could stand a chance against her and what she could do with the PF.

I have no problems with this. I actually didn't like the 90's X-Force team lineup. Some dead weight. But they are just characters; if the lineups stayed the same forever it would get very boring.

You do have a point. But yeah, its more the fans than the character that pi$$ me off. Batfans are even worse than Storm fans. ( Don't diss me!!!)

I wonder if a Storm vs Batman fight was ever posted in the Battle Forums :inno:

How can you not know your gay?

Old post, but I thought I'd respond. Personally, I knew I had an attraction to males as early as grade school, but I was told that I wasn't normal. It didn't really become obvious until I was a teenager in high school, trying my hardest to hide any sign that I was different. I didn't act on "gay" feelings until I was a freshman in college. I would say I went through a large part of my teen years having a niggling feeling that I didn't like girls as much as I should, but that didn't stop me from dating them. After all, I wasn't sure if that feeling was the same for other guys. It's possible to know but be confused because A) you are young and B) you have been raised or told that male/female relationships is the only right way to live.

Why are so many characters losing body parts, this is really starting to anger me

Me, too. I think some writers think losing body parts = angst, and if the X-Men do anything, it's indulge in angst.

That said, I also don't get why Elixir couldn't re-attach or grow her a new leg. At the very least she should have a cloned leg made to replace the old one or a more human looking cybernetic leg. It's funny how they have tech that allows them to go into space, create holograms and build energy weapons of every conceivable size but their medical technology doesn't seem any more advanced than advil.

Honestly, I hope not. The fact that she is Magneto's daughter is a huge part of her character. That's not to say that it couldn't work. I honestly don't know who could go up against Magneto other than her though. Maybe Madison Jefferies? Fabian Cortez? Unus? Bedlam? Amelia Voght? (I'm reaching now obviously). Gerard Butler as Cable would be cool, but he can't hold his own against Fassbender-Magneto.

I loved XMFC. I'm hoping they reveal Havok's connection to Scott in the next one. They teased it in interviews, but never said. I do think that Xavier's School is a sausage-fest (which is ok if you're into that). I'm holding out on hope that he's time displaced...

I think Vertigo was able to hold her own against Magneto. Maybe they could introduce her as Polaris' potential mother.

Maybe they could get the women to speak to each other in the sequel?

If they time shifted forward by ten years or so, it would be somewhat believable that Magneto would have teenaged children around fourteen or so. Erik seemed to be in his early 30s in the movie and considering his bio, he would only need to be in his teens to believably have kids if it was timed to occur after the Nazi regime fell apart.

Well, Children's Crusade gave her a way back to being a hero again. It is not the best written series, but I don't think anyone can argue that the artwork is bad or that the exposition doesn't plug up a lot of plot holes.
