When he quit smoking really irritated me as well. Not a smoker, but I thought it fit his character well.
(thumbs u Also, when they repaired the Hellfire guards after Wolvie sliced and diced them.
Yeah tht also bugs the hell out of me. I don't know for sure but did they ALL live and none die. I've seen lines that suggest both but usually more that they all became Reavers. I also didn't realize that story came only about 2 years later and not almost 100 issues later. It actually is a good idea for characters/storyline but you had to make it clear that some died and some became cyborgs and hell bent on destroying Wolverine. Too many people consider that Wolverine's definin moment to water it down like that.
Unfortunately Days of the Future Past is when it jumped the shark just because it open the doors to characters flying in from alternate future realities. I've never liked Cable but then X-Man....really ? And then Bishop with his mullet. They supposedly have mutant powers but just seem to use guns. I read what Uncanny X-Force was about and when I saw all the AOA characters mentioned, I thought Wow that sounds lame.
Totally agree. I think it was just as much to do with the new generation coming through like Lee and Liefield as well. The mutant saga was becoming convoluted enough till they started bringing Cable, Bishop etc in. I completely lost interest then.
