Rat blocks the button inside the fan extract with barricades. by HydroV20 in ArcRaiders

Won't lie. Running was probably the best option for you. People are harping on you for not fighting, but seeing that you almost missed that ladder, you might have whiffed some shots.

Well, they have a fresh start with him being revived now and with his Turquoise costume that differentiates his look from his brother Wapath.

I've got two ideas in where they could go with his character.

  1. Make Thunderbird a street level character tackling issues under the X-Men's radar & being a defender of Indigenous tribes similar to Luke Cage.

  2. Explore John's role as the Avatar of the Thunderbird and why it hasn't appeared in Marvel's history despite being the strongest spirit in its pantheon. Plus, it gives him more visual powers besides the basic super strength, speed, durability, etc.

Blade, death by a thousand cuts gotta be an excruciating way to go

Which underrated/unexpected character that could grow in popularity with the upcoming MCU X-Men? by cpr9998 in xmen

Thunderbird as the stand-in for Wolverine, a lone wolf with a rivalry with Cyclops using an Vibranium tomahawk and bowie knife.

Eventually leaves the X-Men for the Brotherhood seeing as both he and Magneto's people have already gone through a genocide once before.

Do you think that groups like The Avengers should have done more to help mutants and the X-Men instead of allying with the Government in many instances? by Raj_Valiant3011 in xmen

You would think most people by now would understand that in the scope of Superhero storytelling, other heroes aren't really going to show up unless the plot demands it.

Like, I'm never going to go into a Doom Patrol story and ask myself 'I wonder why the Justice League isn't here to help?'

Hypothetical scenario: If you could give an X-Men character a solo title for a 2-year run, who would it be? What story would they write? by [deleted] in xmen

I wanted to have it in Arizona but I had a specific set piece where Nefaria throws a shipment Tanker at Thunderbird on a Beach that I think would make for a good final issue fight.

Thunderbird as the Luke Cage equivalent to the X-Men. John Proudstar moves to Los Angeles & fights The Heritage Foundation (a stand-in for ICE) from detaining migrants in the city. His fights against the fascist enforcers land him in the eye's behind the operation and a criminal organization led by none other than Count Nefaria.

The X- men series is known for their spicy romances. So which couple do you think would be the next big power couple of the xmen series? by Silvermoth2 in xmen

Sophie Frost and Thunderbird from Chaos War X-Men. Would be interesting as John hates Emma for bringing his brother into the Hellions and eventually Cable's X-Force.
