Date: 2024-05-12 01:38 am (UTC)So yeah, the introduction of the greatest X-Man of all time and the first teenage crush for many a young reader and... anyway.
One thing that I've always found odd is how we'd get these storylines about the X-Men and Hellfire Club racing to be the first to indoctrinate/recruit these mutants that popped up on the radar/Cerebro/whatever... Kitty, Dazzler, Blob, etc, but at the same time over the years, dozens and hundreds of mutants just manifested, grew up and went about their lives. Some appeared as grown villains, some as civilians, and sometimes we'd get an explanation like "Xavier gave them the speech but they refused" or "Xavier kept tabs on them but didn't feel like recruiting them." Over the years, entire teams and communities of mutants would appear...
But it makes stories where both sides absolutely have to have someone like Kitty feel a little unusual.
