Thursday, December 2, 2010

While the rest of the X-Men are put through their rigorous "post-graduate" exercises in the Danger Room...

Marvel Girl is given something else to do...

Watch as Scott Summers puts her through her paces:

A new record!! Scott sure loves to time Jean...

And the final result?

You dropped a stitch, you harlot!!!!!!!!

From X-Men #8 (1964).

the enduring mystery of the X-men is how this humorless clown hemroid is still around. Maybe he and Pym have a beer and share "war stories" about their old ladies.

I, Warren said...: Thank you, Snell! This is the sequence I was referring to in Chapter #1's comments!

Ok, my memory was slightly off -- the Beast isn't leaping over pits of spikes and the Angel isn't swooping through flaming rings. But the mundane sight of Jean doing telekinetic needlepoint stuck with me. Why? Whhhyyyyyyy???!; December 2, 2010 at 4:39 PM

In fairness, there is some benefit in Jean practicing finer control with her powers. But still...

Warren--the were hoops (but no fire)...I just didn't show them.

But stay tuned. This is far from the worst of Jean's Danger Room exercises...; December 2, 2010 at 8:44 PM
