Whoops, in confusion, I already posted my response on another board. I'll have to go delete that.
But I will continue to say Nightcrawler! He trained as a priest, and his faith has always been very important to him. And I still say having a prehensile tail would rock, whether one is called upon God or not.

But remember his training to be a priest was based on the premise that he was talking to god. But it wasn't god, I am not sure exactly who it was, but it was someone playing with his mind. Please someone help me out with this. But his belief was based on a fabrication.

Ah, very true! (The "Church of Humanity" series. Those naughty persons were playing with his mind and convinces him he'd undergone priestly training, when it was more that he was being hypnotized.) I still loved the brief "Dracula" story arc, though, when the X Men were facing down a vampire (obviously) and Kitty Pryde (Shadowcat) tried holding the beastie off with a cross, and kept wondering why doing that would work for Kurt (Nightcrawler) and not when she tried it. I think someone told her that, in order for that 'trick' to work, it had to be a faith one believed in. She proceeded to use a Star of David, with equal effect.Master Vigil said:

Superman's greatest enemy was a corporate exec. He frequently fights evil corporations in the name of the little man. What Republican would dare hurt his bottom line there? A small-town Republican might, but certainly not a big Republican. Besides, Superman was fashioned in the thirties. In that day, the country was pretty much Democrat

Yes but at that time the Democrats were undergoing a political change from being the conservative party to being the liberal party. Besides Superman never lost his small roots. Also it should be noted that Lex Luthor was originally a mad scientist.No*s said:I say the nay!

One can be a small town guy and still not be a Republican. I'm living proof. I'm a non-Republican redneck
.Now on Luthor, this is true, all very true...however if we go back far enough Luthor was a second rate villain. He was just some small guy with red hair working for a bald mad scientist, the Ultra Humanite. So, Luthor being a corporate mongol is just another stage in his transformation to make him a better and better villain lol.
Off the record though...I'm glad that it looked like DC is moving away from the corporate exec paradigm. I liked Luthor much more as a mad scientist when I was little. The corporate guy never did grow on me. I say that they create a whole new villain for Supes to fight there and bring back the old Luthor...
