[QUOTE]Originally posted by Griffworks: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by AndrewR: [qb]Isn't Miss Marvel another name for Jean?[/qb][/QUOTE]No, Ms. Marvel was a character (a human, IIRC) who had acquired Kree (an alien race) powers similar to those of the Kree warrior Captain Marvel. Rogue killed her, I think. But later she came back. (With so many decades of comics, it gets a bit hard to keep track of everyone... ;) ) Jean's original code name was Marvel Girl. I never quite understood why they stopped using it and just started calling her Jean Grey all the time. I suppose somebody probably complained that it sounded silly, but then again just using her real name isn't much better IMHO. [QUOTE][b]And sorry - but who/what are Muir Island (Isn't that where Moyra McTaggert is - wasn't she a love of Xaviers and helped build Cerebro with Eric?) Franklin Richards? Project Wide-awake?[/b][/QUOTE]Yes, Muir Island is is where McTaggert lives/works. I think Sean Cassidy (Banshee, whose daughter Theresa [Siryn] had a cameo in the film) may have gone to work with her there at one point. Franklin Richards is the mutant son of Reed and Susan Richards. (Mr. Fantastic and the Invisible Woman of the Fantastic Four.) The FF comics have done all sorts of interesting things with [i]him[/i]... Project Wideawake was some government program that may have tied in with the Sentinels, but my memory is foggy here. [QUOTE][qb]An X-men fanatic girl I know told me about Stryker - she's one of these Fans - sorta like us - I think they consider the comics Canon and everything else non-canon. Those movies would be pretty hard to dismiss though![/qb][/QUOTE]Well obviously, the movies take place in a different continuity than the comics. The same would have to go for any of the latest Marvel movies. ([i]Blade[/i], [i]Spider-Man[/i], [i]Daredevil[/i], [i]The Hulk[/i], etc.) They're only re-interpretations or revisions of the stories from the comics. [QUOTE][b]...Bub.[/b][/QUOTE]Forgot to mention this before: I was immeasurably pleased when Jackman called Cox that. It was truly cool that they kept little things like that. :) -[b]MMoM[/b] :D [/qb][/QUOTE]Hey look everybody! I must be The Invisible Boy 'cause apparently my post above which covered pretty much the same info isn't visible to other people..... :rolleyes: [/QB][/QUOTE]
