why do YOU dislike certain X-Men characters?

K, so please no flame wars in this thread. If someone says "Man i HATE that Wolverine" and doesn't post a reason it's their decision. Also, don't start argueing with them just cause you think their point moot (even though it might be). Just trying to make a mature civil thread here to find out who is disliked and most importantly why.

First of all, i dislike Cyclops (not hate, just dislike). Why? Because of two things:

1. the deaths of Scaleface and Berzerker. That stuff shouldn't have gone unpunished. I mean how stupid do you have to be to see them hiding behind to crate to keep safe from gunfire and destroy that crate to leave them out in the open gunfire.....he was like an executioner on that one.

2. Abandoning Morph back in the old toons. I mean COME ON. Cyke pissed himself when he saw the sentinels and decided to leave. It wasn't a rational decision to run and leave him behind. There were bout 4 or 5 sentinels there (all prototypes). And when they attack Trask's base and wolverine and gambit get stuck in a room filled with sentinels after a while the door opens and they're both battered but standing over a pile of sentinel bodies.

I also dislike Rogue. She was an immensely cool character WITHOUT flying and superstrength. I mean come on, that's making it WAAAAY too easy. In Evo (which is crap, i know, but still the idea remains) just by using her power she woops pyro/colossus/gambit/magneto ass. Not to mention what she does to the x-men O_o.....

Yes, true, but it wasn't Logan that gave the order to retreat was it? 😉
Also, don't see any comment regarding the scaleface/berzerker thing 😛

Yes, well, you might be right and he might've been forced to give that order but it just stuck with me and won't go away even if you're being reasonable 😛 Such is the stigmata of being team leader and having to take the real decisions.....you then get a new convertable, curteosy of wolverine

Berzerker is bout as much a bad guy as wolverine. Even less. Hard time getting along with surfacers, all that hollier than thou deal goin' on. However, he wasn't a bad guy. And after Scaleface died (that he was in love with) he couldn't control himself anymore and let loose against the cops that promptly shot him dead while cyke watched 🙁

on www.uncannyxmen.net it said cyke shot him... and that berzerker was an avengers villain...

WTF!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

i....don't think so ????
someone help me out here 🙁

Anyway pr1983, time for you to say which character you dislike [/shamefully changing subject]

wolverine... his attitude... if he was a solo hero i wouldnt mind... but he's supposed to be part of the team... and adding to the fact that he is way too overexposed... surviving nukes, beating namor, hurting surfer... that stuff pisses me off...

i just dont find his character that interesting, he seems to have so little depth... they try and play the "i lost my memory" card, but they do it too much... and the fact the guy claims to have honour yet never stops trying to take jean (i don't even like jean, but come on)...

there are many reasons... i cant go into all of them...

jubilee... if you've watched the animated show you'll know why...

I don't like Batman. I hear how he's supposed to be the greatest character because he's a powerful hero but still human but he's like an exaggerated version of Oprah and Oprah is already insanely overpowered. It's like DC is trying to tip their hats to the "normal" heroes but by beating Darkseid by themselves or outsmarting a... knowledge... demon or something.

But strangly... I find Dr. Doom and Black Panther very cool for doing the same.

Wolverine is also annoying. Yeah, you're the gothy loner, we get it. Stop surviving nukes and running through gun fire.

Also Stormfront is making me hate Storm the same way a certain someone at the JLAnimated board made me hate Wonder Woman.

I gotta agree with Pr1983 for his reasons of disliking Wolverine. He isn't a team player and needs to leave the X-Men and do his own thing. I agree he adds a tactical force to the team but it's not Wolverine & the X-Men. I still watched the animated X-Men show and prayed for one scene that was never produced.

( X-Men the lost episode...... )

Cyclops: "Logan, We are a team, It's not just about you!"

Logan: "I go.....where I wanna go"

Gambit: "Well then don't let the door hit you on the bottom on your way out Mon Ami."

Jubilee: "But Wolvie....."

Morph: "And take that little runt with you, Heh."

Beast: "Oh my stars and garters."

riiiiiiiight.......that's gonna happen soon -_-

Ahem, anyway, i have to concurr with pr in saying that wolverine's been exaggerated upon, i still think he makes for a great character. Sure, kick him out of the team but not out of the Marvel Universe.

Swanky-Tuna, i can understand your frustration but you have to appreciate the fact that he's just a human kickin serious ass. I actually enjoy watching a Batman episode or reading a batman comicbook after too many epic Marvel battles.

(PS: i was thinkin more along the line of Marvel characters but now the gate to DC has been opened 😛 )

i'm actually heading that way... i've always liked storm... and she's pretty hot too... but i've come to associate her with stormfront and the hours ive spent in the vs forum... 🙁

as for batman, he's cool, one of my favourites (though i prefer superman)... its more just personal taste really...

jean. coz she HAS everything.
scott. coz he seems to have no sense of humour.
