I like her. Most of the New X-Men have become mediocre, but to me X-23 stands out from the rest. Possibly due to more appearances.
On the topic of X-Men I'm disappointed with the way Cyclops has gone.
Sentry obviously. Marvel should have capped his power and gave themselves an incredibly powerful Superhero, instead of this deranged character that sprouts new powers all the time, gets lauded as the most powerful Character in the MU before getting slapped around by Ultron and "burning out" against Hulk. Shame as the introduction was interesting.
It's clear Marvel didn't know where to take him. The power of a thousand exploding suns became a million. The terrifying Void that brought Sentry to insanity couldn't even kill a shield agent in it's New Avengers appearance. Up and downs on what should be a clear cut character.
Power Pack - This group has failed to develop over the years. Instead of continuing to use them as 10 year olds they could have been drafted into the runaways or somesuch. We saw ligthspeed have a minor appearance in that comics and it had a lot of potential.
if you read the comics about him it tells you why he sucks so bad sometimes...i am starting to like where they are going with him now...it is kinda interesting
i like the void more and more now...his personality is great...you can never take him seriously with what he says...and he isnt a sissy man like sentry is lately
i will agree tho it got old fast how he was being embarrassed all the time
Basically they decided to make it so whenever they needed to show a new villain was especially powerful, they'd send Sentry against him only to have his ass thoroughly kicked. A trend that is only now starting to reverse.
Stiltman. When he first appeared the whole city was afraid of him. He made Daredevil and Spider-Man look bad. He stood there and took Thor's hammer straight to the chest and told Thor to get lost because the hydraulic stilts made him unbeatable.
Later he became a joke. Now everyone beats him with no more difficulty than if he was an infant in diapers. They have casual conversations while they beat him up.
Asgardian Destroyer. That first fight with Thor was awesome in so many ways. But over the years, the Destroyer gradually became just another notch on Thor's belt.

Ares at least when they reintroduced him in his mini years back.
Now it seems like he just keeps getting the generic strongman type treatment, with a few moments where it looks like they are gonna make him the legit god of war.
I just wish they would finally make the final decision give him an amp and let him be the herald level Wolverine like he should be or like it's been stated he should be.
