>>130215255used to be:
-written as intelligent with over the top vocabulary bubbles in the 90s
-cartoon version is wholesome team player, saves wolverine and weapon x subjects from massive explosion with practical solutions, and is willing to use logic and reason with Forge and villains to save the planet from phalanx when most other x-men would have irrationally refused to cooperate
-will totally take the role of miss frizzle for field trips
-has a sense of humor and is one of the few people who is not annoyed by Deadpool
then the bullshit and is now:
-writers try to make him gay out of nowhere in the mid 2000s, they don't even bring up evidence like his bromance with wonder man so it falls flat
-writers give him reverse plot armor in endangered species, he can't help mutant in any timeline
-spends years trying to cure legacy virus with moira mactaggert, but doesn't succeed
-does what cyclops asks of him and makes a bomb to be sent through time
-does what captain america and the avengers and makes a bomb that destroys an alternate universe
-has the same morals as nightcrawler and is against death squad shenanigans, but is an asshole because reasons
-nightcrawler chides him in uncanny 600 even though he never confronted cyclops about death squad shenanigans
-is forced by writers to grab younger versions of x-men to sell shitty O5 comics, everyone points a finger at him even though there was a vote to keep the younger versions around anyway
-was going to die if he didn't travel in time and get saved by a younger version of himself
-asked Uatu the watcher for help, but then later bendis has the watcher creep in his bedroom to gaslight and verbally abuse him, even though watcher is a hypocrite and has interfered, is literally interfering by doing stupid verbal abuse
-does death squad shit but because he's not cyclops gets shit for it
-not on the counsel of krakoa, upstaged by war criminals and human rights violators like Apocalypse, Magneto, Sinister, Cassandra Nova
