Kurt Wagner - Most Emotive Mutant Ever, Without Being Emo

[terrykun]

Two pages from Uncanny X-Men: First Class 6, featuring Kurt being eloquent and adorable, as always.

Context: He grabbed a sword off some alien, and it teleported him to some sort of pocket dimensional trophy room, where he finds a certain head on a wall.




The above is an authorized Man-Tear moment.



Awwww... Kurt. You so silly. ^^

A lot of times, Charles reminds me of Reed Richards, in that despite whatever layers of genius, humanitarian, or asshole we might see on the outside... there's still just a big kid going 'Ooh! Shiny!' at every new experience.
Need to find scans of Reed and Sue's second honeymoon to showcase this further.

Oh, Kurt. Every word so heartfelt and poetic, and then BAM, Xavierdickery!

[terrykun]

I don't see any dickery here. He wasn't 'conscious' yet, so it's not like he was playing possum just to screw with Kurt.

[shanejayell]

Well, he COULD have been playing posum. We don't KNOW he was out.... *lol*

[mullon]

I fail to see how he's not a ghost despite being decapitated.

[deepspaceartist]

As I gather from the dialogue, he himself wasn't decapitated, only his psychic form was decapitated. And we allready know he can survive as just a floating mind head.

[foxhack]

He's so scared WE CAN SEE HIS PUPILS

[bwhahahabeck]

Art love everywhere.

[goblinthebamf]

KURT LOVE.

so many great expressions on that second page, I think I'll be practicing my photoshop skills for a bit with that.

[suzene]

Someone's channeling Cockrum. I approve!

[retro_nouveau]

For some reason I think he would unconsciously bamf a thousand yards away if something scared the hell out of him like that.

[cmdr_zoom]

Leaving a little incontinent sulfurous cloud behind him, yes.

[halialkers]

Bald of Xavierdickery, I choose YOU!

[roily_rogue]

Oh Kurt!<33333333333333333

Those first two panels in the second scan are CLASSIC. It proves that even heroes in training can completely freak out every now and then.

[taggerung301]

bahahaha, this is excellent
many thanks for posting this!

[tanetris]

In the second panel, with the eyebrows and the ears, I had a brief moment of "Bald Namor..?" before, no, of course, Charles.

They never have improved on his original costume, have they? (and I say that as one who quite liked his Ellis era Excalibur outfit with the swords)

[sianmink]

Sounds like a job for Project Rooftop!

[icon_uk]

That might be fun, but Kurt has had lots of costumes, it's just I don't think any of them have come close to being as cool as his original circus gear!
