"Given that Bobby was almost killed by a lynch mob, the Drakes would probably have been open to a "I will teach him to use his powers, to reduce the risk of that happening again" pitch. But as you say, he didn't.

"Slightly OT, I really liked that Xavier's stepfather wasn't behind Charles' father's death, he simply stood back and let it happen — a flawed, weak man, but not a murderer. A nice character detail.

"Which is why Claremont saw him as equally ruthless as Magneto. Though somehow, possibly because I was way young when I first encountered them, I've never thought of him that way. Insanely risky stuff like that is just what people did in comics, or…"
"Given how routinely superheroes erased inconvenient memories back in the 1960s, I don't think that can be held up as proof of disdain for humans. You have a point bout his curtness to Iron Man."
"And it makes her crushing on Cap reasonable too — he was probably early to mid-twenties when he went into the ice.

"One of Marvel's more annoying ideas (to me) is that in recent years everything has been extended back into history. The Avengers, SHIELD, Hydra, they all stretch back centuries or they had predecessors who did (though I admit I enjoyed Roy Thomas'…"
"I think you did as good a job as feasible given the material you were working with. It is indeed obvious Lee and Kirby weren't thinking long range, not that I blame them for that. As a friend of mine pointed out a while back, Ben's a WW II legend…"
"John Byrne offered a solution along those lines: a 12-year-old Sue staring up at grad-student Reed with an Oh He's So Handsome crush written on her face, Reed looking acutely embarrassed.

"That occurred to me too — there'd have to be some really good reason they didn't marry."
"According to X-Men #1, Xavier's mutation stemmed from his parents' work on the Manhattan Project. That indicates he's much younger than I (and most people assume) — young enough an interest in Jean wouldn't be out of line (teacher/student issues…"
"I don't think that's a deal-breaker. Namor could battle Destine, discover the serpent crown inside the helmet and after the battle with Naga a few issues later, lose it at sea. Krang then uncovers it as part of Madame Hydra's Serpent Squad decades…"
"I have a very vague memory that he went prematurely grey in WW II. But I might be imagining it (someone in this group will know, I'm sure).

"That's a weird one. Nick's WW II service is still canon so what would relocating the Howlers in time do? Plus yeah, Grenada's not much of a substitute for the Big One or time enough to fit dozens of Sgt. Fury issues into.

"Yes, that seems overly cautious on the editors' part. It's obvious Reed is more self-conscous than anything else.

"Oh lord, Dorma. "I'll let you conquer Atlantis if you pinky-swear not to hurt my sweetie" — she's a traitor and acts almost as foolishly when Namor gets his own series.
