Hi everyone. Im relatively new to Xtitles,and had some questions about
different aspects of X-universe.
1) What issue was the first appearance of longshot, Mojo and spiral and
which issues showed their origins?
2) I heard the Chris claremont wrote uncanny for like 15 yrs. In this age
of 12/15 issue runs, how did MArvel manage to keep him for so long -I mean
I know the book popularity skyrocketed, but 15 yr run is kinda unusual .
Wouldnt he have gottten bored or did MArvel ever think of forced
retirement? If the conflict with bob Harras didnt arise, do you ythink he
would have stayed on Uncanny?
3) Was it hinted that Sinister was supposed to be the bully , Nate, who
roughed Cyclops when he was in the orphanage?
4) Besides Uncanny 117, and 278-280 , has Xavier ever fought the Shadow
King? Uncanny 274 mentions MAgneto encountered him, and Xforce 26 mentions
him encountering siryn. Have these ocurred on panel in any issue?
5) Is Magmas real name allison crestmere or Amara Aquilla?
6) What happened to Pierce after Dphoenix Saga and before the time he is
seen leading the Reavers in Uncanny 248?
7) Why does Deathbird have wings and Lilandra not?
 Why is alan davis so popular? (not trying to be mean, im just ignorant)
His run on Uxm/nxm wasnt that awe-inspiring IMO.
Thanks for any help!! |

All of this stuff is in the six-issue Longshot miniseries, by Ann Nocenti
and Art Adams. It's the best thing you'll ever read that focusses on
Longshot.

I think that in many ways Claremont adopted the X-Men as his own. Certainly
he would have stayed beyond the creative differences with Bob Harras, and I
believe that he'd still be writing them today without having had a break. I
doubt Marvel ever thought of forced retirement, considering the sales. If
they'd ever dipped, then maybe.

I think there were some vague hints to this effect during Inferno. Nothing
concrete, but it was Claremont's intention, I believe, for this to be
Sinister's origin. The idea has since been dropped, and Sinister given a
completely different origin.

I can't recall if Xavier was involved when the New Mutants fought the Shadow
King. Magneto's encounter was never shown beyond that single mention. I
have no idea about Siryn.

Claremont believes that it is Amara Aquilla, and he's the one currently in
control of her character. It's a good idea to return her to her roots, and
restore some of her uniqueness.

He battles the New Mutants, and also makes a few other appearances as part
of the Hellfire Club. He gets kicked out of the Inner Circle during that
New Mutants story, I think.

Deathbird is an evolutionary throwback, and shows more avian traits than
other Shi'ar.

Check out his stuff on Excalibur, where he delivers the goods as a writer
and an artist.

The LONGSHOT limited series pretty much fits the description.

Even when Claremont's not writing the X-Men, he's somehow still writing
them.

Yes.

Probably, but I doubt any of it's worth finding.

*shrug*

He contributed the the creation of the New Mutants.

Deathbird is a throwback.

I didn't read it, but from what I understand his recent X-Men work
wasn't his best. He's done some awesome work in the past, though.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: random X-men related questions |

I thought it was established at some point that Sinister ran the
orphanage and that he disguised himself as nate to screw with
cyclops...and his actual origin was in the Further Adventures of
Cyclops and Phoenix mini but that only covered the distant past...back
in the 1800s

You're right, it was. I was thinking of Claremont's aborted plot, that
Sinister was a child in the orphanage who was unable to age, or something
like that. That was part of the reason that Sinister's name and look were
so stereotypically eeeee-ville; they were drawn from a child's concept of
what a villain should be like. This comes from memories I have of various
interviews with Claremont, so it's fairly vague. If I'm wrong on any
points, I know people will feel free to correct me.

I wonder why the orphange didn't recognize Sinister's unaging if Claremont
kept his original origin? I think he would have telepathy and just erase
the memories of the staff who works there or something alone the lines.
Dunno. Also, his original origin would made some plot twists, especially
the time traveling and Apocalypse ruiling the future since Sinister would
be around 40 in the year Apocalypse conquers the world.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: random X-men related questions |

Never got the Longshot series, but the Shattershot annuals (around the
time of the end of the Jim Lee era) added quite a bit to Spiral's
origin.

Most of the pieces are implied by what happens on alternate earths

This one of course caught by eye because it references X-Force. 
Siryn was under the Shadow King's control while she was staying on Muir
Isle after FALLEN ANGELS. She, as well as other Muir Isle occupants (like
Moira, Madrox, Legion and others) were freed from the Shadow King's control
in the Muir Isle Saga, UXM #278-80.

Amara Aquilla.
plz ignore all allison crestmere kthx

Most significantly, he had his fool ass kicked out of the Hellfire Club for
kidnapping Tessa, in MARVEL GRAPHIC NOVEL #4: THE NEW MUTANTS.
> 7) Why does Deathbird have wings and Lilandra not?
Deathbird is an evolutionary throwback to the time when the Shi'ar had
wings.

Did those annuals mention that Spiral was Ricochet Rita from the
Longshot series?

I only vaguely remember anything from CTC, but that's because once Davis
was gone the book lost its direction.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: random X-men related questions |

I'd still like to know what was going on. Why did Dani seem to think
her name was Alison and then, all of a sudden, she refers to her as
Amara? (All this took place while Magma was in a coma.) It's easy to
write off Alison as a spell of Selene's - but *only* on Magma. Why did
other people buy into it and suddenly change their minds?<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: random X-men related questions |

Yeah. Apparently, no one is ready to explain things yet. It seems that the
whole Alison Crestmere thing is being purposely forgotten. Although I can't
really blame them, I wouldn't have brought her back until I was ready to
explain things, but oh well...

Editorial micromanaging messed the whole thing up. BAsically the idea
was that everyone would keep on refering to her as Allison, then
