Holy cow, a mention of Cannonball's brother Icarus! It's possible that Ewing was having Cannonball freak out about his son and got the name wrong (his name is Josiah), but Ewing is enough of a continuity nerd to put in that little shout out to Joshua "Jay" Guthrie.
Her former screaming mimi persona huh? I miss the time she went undercover or whatever and looked more....Woodstock-y. You know, the bandana on the top, the leather vest, the necklaces, the shades...
Y'know what I love? Screaming Mimi debuted in August,1979. She became Songbird in January, 1997. That's 17 1/2 years. As of September 2016, that means she's been a hero for 19 1/2 years or so. Maybe 18 if you want to throw the first year or so of Thunderbolts into a "still a villain" or "grey area" category.
She's grown from a gimmick supervillain into a full-fledged hero and Avenger, and has now spent -longer- as a good guy than as a bad guy.
He reminds me of the kind of guy who would hang around high schools in the seventies and sell the kids ditch weed, the kind with a van that may or may not have an airbrush painting on the side but almost always had a bumper sticker that said "If the van's a-rockin', don't come a-knockin'" or "Ass, gas, or grass--nobody rides for free".
I want every X-Men I like to be far, far away from the X-Men books, since only the "All Old" and the "Not New, Not Different" are allowed to be relevant. As long as he is in New/USAvengers, Sam is safe from being killed in the next mutant purge.
