The Claremont Runさんのイラストまとめ

The cop leaves, and Kurt does all the responsible, logical things in an effort to help Daniel. He asks about his parents, buys him food, and listens. But Kurt’s generic words & glamorous face fail to earn Daniel’s trust; he reveals he’s been sick, but refuses to say more. 6/11

The relationship thus invigorates Xavier (both literally and metaphorically) creating romance and conflict within his life directly, in contrast to the traditional sage role that (as Ursula Le Guin once put it) tends to present such characters as “atrophied” and “sexless.” 6/8

Though often backburnered, the most enduring, diverse, and high-stakes romance in the Claremont run might actually be Xavier/Lilandra, spanning the entirety of the run and playing an important role in key plots, character relationships, and characterizations. #xmen 1/8

Revisiting Dark Phoenix holds the potential to diminish the impact of the original story, but in UXM 175, Claremont was able to use the shadow of the Phoenix to craft a compelling, character-advancing follow-up to the X-Men’s most iconic storyline. #xmen 1/7

Thus, C’s X-Men shows a capacity to speak to any individual reader’s personal religious experience through the generalized concept of divinity. There might not be a consistent allegory to be had, but there is certainly a divine thread to be traced through the pages of UXM. 9/9

Relatedly, the utilitarian use of Illyana’s power against her desires very much situates Xavier in the Belasco role. It’s not just that he fails as her mentor and protector, it’s that he becomes everything that she hates most in the world – a full circle fall from grace. 7/9

Issue 50 (somewhat cruelly) establishes the extent to which Xavier is viewed as a father in Illyana’s eyes through the extent of her jubilance at being rescued by him, but also through her reflection on the fact that Xavier has, in her eyes, earned the role of father to her. 2/9

In all of this, Excalibur directly explores the temptation of suicidal ideation in the wake of tragedy and survivor’s guilt, ultimately finding meaning in purpose through a collective of characters with variant perspectives on the issue offering. 13/14

Arguably, when Rachel arrives on scene, the spectre of suicide hovers over her as well after her exit from UXM, which may have held some suicide-related subtext to the events leading up to it. Simply put, it’s not clear what mental/emotional state Rachel is arriving with. 11/14
