Prior to this scene, we get another featuring Captain Britain drinking himself to death. When Meggan, in her insecurity, is unable to reach him, she wonders “Have I been fooling myself all these months, thinking you loved me? I couldn’t bear that hurt. I’d rather be dead.” 7/14

This theme is picked up from the famous Fantastic Four vs X-Men miniseries, which saw Kitty Pryde adopt a suicidal course of action in response to her injury before being talked down by the unlikely source of Franklin Richards. 3/14

It makes sense that a child would be what brings Kitty back from the edge, as the quality of character most profoundly cultivated in her story arcs is simply raw heroism – a capacity for self-sacrifice and an awareness of her function as a potential paradigm for others. 7/9

This contrasts quite effectively with the childlike perspective of Franklin and the desperately simplistic promises that he offers. Kitty knows these are promises that can’t be kept, but Franklin’s visceral and transcendent need for Kitty to live does change her mind. 6/9

The scene is portrayed with romantic undertones that convey a sort of temptation to the act of suicide for Kitty, a desire to be unburdened. Interestingly, her condition actually mimics the typical portrayal of death for Greek heroes, who often disapparate. 5/9

Lund focuses on Claremont’s three main southern characters as case studies: Rogue, Cannonball, & Gambit, extrapolating on how each embodies Southern values and ideals, paying particular attention to scenes set in their respective home locales. 2/6

The level of self-awareness and self-mockery is clear. Claremont knows that he’s wordy (poor Tom), and that he’s at odds with an editorial direction that is seeking to expand the franchise beyond what Claremont sees as its natural capacity. 8/9

Harras is portrayed as a smooth-talker, immediately declaring that “Well, I’ve given this a lot of thought…” even though Mojo has just posed the problem to the team. Oliver acquiesces, while Art Adams becomes anxious about whether or not he can draw. 5/9

In a selected chapter for “Comics Studies: A Guidebook,” covering the very broad subject of “Superheroes,” scholar Marc Singer provides an account for the secret of Claremont’s success as writer of X-Men comics: representational metaphor. 1/6

Then again in Dr. Doom’s castle as a way to confuse and control Wolverine. This spurs a direct reflection for Logan on his broader battle with his primitive urges, even triggering a flashback that helps Wolverine find the will to escape Doom’s trap. 5/7
