At the time, even those of us who love the Canuckleheads traditional duds understood the point.
Others, however, left much to be desired.
That means not just yellow spandex for Wolverine and, well, any clothes at all for Mystique.
Here are the characters who truly need a do-over in the MCU.
And yet, what happens when Sebastian Shaw attacks the burgeoning team inX-Men: First Class?
He absolutely cannot die.
Storm
Quick, when you think of Storm in the Fox movies, what comes to mind?
Is it something about a Toad?
Getting struck by lightning?
Thats an ignoble track record for one of the best comic book characters ever created.
The Storm of X-Men comics has been a goddess, a thief, and everything in between.
Although even coming close to matching the glory of her comic book characterizations would be nice.
Cyclops
As disrespectfully as Storm was treated, at least she did something memorable in theX-Menmovies.
The same cannot be said of Cyclops, the first and longest-serving leader of the X-Men.
He was a wet-blanket third-wheel in the romance between Jean Grey and Wolverine.
Gambit
In another world, this entry would be different.
However, despite Tatums undying enthusiasm for the part, the movie never came to be.
Wolverine has claws; Cyclops and his optic blasts; even Storms weather-controlling will be old hat.
I dont remember seeing him.
Of course you dont, despite the fact that he was played by great character actor Ken Leung.
He had a giant gun, a flowing mullet, and a tattoo over his eye!
And working a fan-favorite into the MCU X-Men would help rebuild the momentum they so badly need.
However, Sunspots actor Zaga is caucasian, not an Afro-Brazilian like the character from the comics.
An MCU Sunspot would restore this aspect to the character, making him more rich in the process.
