Nathaniel Carver: His power allows him to see the memory of any person (or object/place) he touches, which is pretty cool. He wears dapper clothing with matching gloves. He's a nerd, and absolutley loves stuff like magic the gathering. He has only been in like 14 issues total. He's gay.
Jules Jourdain: Circuit breaker (he/they) is able to use the still force as a source of his power, and despite getting a little bit of buzz around the time they first appeared, he generally is not all that popular, I don't think.
I'm WAY too late to post propaganda for the marvel next queer character tournament since he already went out in round 1, but I still want to post these panels.
Quentin had a crush on the only kid who wanted to spend time with him but lost him to another guy with a mohawk and dyed hair.
Nathaniel Carver, AKA Hindsight made a brief appearance today as a member of the Krakoan response team. Nathaniel was first introduced in the brief-lived 2017 Generation X series, but he and his boyfriend (Benjamin Deeds, AKA Morph) have been conspicuously absent during the Krakoan era. I really liked their relationship, and I've been kind of sad that they weren't around anymore, so this was a nice surprise.
Steve Orlando, who is also responsible for writing Lin Li in X-Men Green, wrote this issue. He clearly has a fondness for the 2017 Gen X alumni, so I'm hoping he'll find a way for Benji to show up soon, too.
Benjamin Deeds/Nathaniel Carver (Generation X (2017), Marvel Comics)
fic count: 10
"They’re two socially awkward mutant boys who are adorable. They’re actually canon!! However they are minor characters in the vast, bottomless sea of comic book characters, and they’ve been lost in the shuffle. Really their only content is in the Generation X 2017 run, which is where Nathaniel debuted as a character. Benjamin has more appearances because he debuted before that, but not enough to actually count as significant. They haven’t really appeared in much meaningful capacity at all since Generation X’s run was cut short, and they probably never will again! Which sucks! Because I love them!"
C-53/Pleck Decksetter (Mission to Zyxx)
fic count: 25
"Pleck is a naive farmboy who's destined to save the galaxy and C-53 is the protocol and diplomatic relations droid who is his best friend. C gets put in alot of different bodies, like a humidifier and a toaster, and he's also a huge bitch. Plus Pleck is an ace icon so there's this element of like. Guy who doesn't identify with his bodies x Guy who isn't attracted to bodies. i know that this sounds like budget luke skywalker/c3p0 but i promise their relationship is so rich and beautiful. listen to mission to zyxx, its so funny and clever and i love it"
Not sure how many people are aware of Benjamin Deeds (Morph) and Nathaniel Carver (Hindsight)'s one page appearance in X-Men Gold Annual 1 but I thought I'd share it. Took me a lot of research & digging to even find these adorable bread crumbs of these boys but it was worth it!
This is a fantastic reel! I love Larry for sharing it, but kind of hate him for prolonging the pain (though I have a feeling this one's going to hurt for a long time).
