why is storm considered the only iconic x-woman?
Jean Grey for life!
I would also say scott is more recognizable. maybe rogue too but I rep Carol over her.
i think its because there are so many generic red-heads in comic-dom... its takes more than a glimpse to recognise Jean over Mary-Jane. (unless jean is in Phoenix raptor mode, and/or in the phoenix/dark phoenix costume).
I think Cyclops is indeed underestimated for his iconic status. he is definitely not in Wolverboring's category, but i can see him being alongside Storm, Professor X and Magneto. Rogue, i'm sorry is not that iconic.. 90s Rogue was, for a while, she is now not the character she was - throw in how many people STILL spell her name as "Rouge"... She not iconic. Recognisable in 90s outfit sure, but not an icon of x-dom.
