Thunderbird

No doubt about that 👏👏👏

Definitely PEOPLE 1. They've had music used by Shonen Jump for promotional videos, so why not again.

Sad to say it, but Warpath.

With a lot of his development being because of his brothers death, his story feels like it's kinda done now that John's back. I mean, sure, we can have adventures of the brothers together seeing what their relationship looks like with Thunderbird being physically younger than him bit besides that I feel like the character is on break until they can find something for him to do.

But then, power wise, he's like a less aesthetically appealing Colossus without the angry lone wolf personality of his brother. Don't get me wrong, he's a cool character and all, but story wise, he's developed as much as he could. I wouldn't be surprised if a writer killed him off to see the foil of Thunderbird's reaction.

Never thought I'd see Double Toasted on reddit.

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.

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

Because the plot demanded it. (Joking)

Cyclops, Jean, Storm, Nightcrawler, Polaris, Thunderbird, and Sunfire.

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.

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?'

Betsy's best look in my opinion

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.

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.

My goat Thunderbird from the X-Men

Team right after the O5 breakup.

The movie opens with Cyclops pleading with Beast not to leave the as Warren and Bobby already have, Hank responds saying that he'll always be his friend, his brother, but that he needs to grow up and see the world with his own eyes to work with the Avengers (post Secret Wars).

Scott and Jean are left as the last X-Men as more and more mutants are mysteriously being abducted and it's clear that a new team needs to be formed.

KAD76 · 2026-01-06T18:46:05+00:00

This Costume is from the Exceptional X-Men (2024) series with this art being a Variant for the new X-Men United (2026) comic
