"Detention."


Does Kurt tend to take Quicksilver's side, against his ex-wife and the Black Knight? Because he's a mutant? Because we know Pietro's kind of a colossal jerk. I know Nightcrawler and Quicksilver will be on the same X-Men team in Dark Phoenix, but I'm not sure we've ever seen them interact a lot otherwise.

Although, they were both in Uncanny X-Men: First Class #1! Synopsis from the GCD: "Nightcrawler saves two children from falling bricks but is attacked by a mob for his appearance. When the Inhumans visit the mansion, Kurt and Peter travel back to their home on the Moon and Nightcrawler is enamored of a society where difference is celebrated. When he observes normal looking children being transformed by the Terrigen Mist, however, Nightcrawler tries to put a stop to this abomination and is attacked for his sacrilege." In Kurt's defense, that Terrigen business is a crapshoot--and this was before it was decided that was poisonous to mutants. Some writers have pushed the notion that the Terrigen gives powers as needed: if as a society, the Inhumans needed methane-breathers, that's what they would get the next ceremony. Or it was just luck, and kids could either get kickass powers, or useless ones. Anyway, I don't recall when that comic was on the shelves, but I lucked into the little trades for it from my dearly departed Hastings.

I'm not positive, but has the kind of cancer Deadpool has ever been specified? It seems to be a nondescript, all over his body cancer, but that could be the result of his healing factor or something.

Ha! nice cage, and I like the way you posed Deadpool chewing on his leg.

I don't think it was ever really specified what type of cancer he had, just that it was very aggressive.
The movies didn't really clear things up on that end either despite seeing an x-ray of his lungs with cancer spots in there, and his talking to Vanessa about how it's only in his live, lungs, prostate and brain.

It IS a very nice cage.
