On this particular group, the traitor is the "good guy" since Cyclops,
Mangeto, White Queen and Magik are wanted fugitives, especially
Cyclops.

JB-

Try to imagine you have not heard of any of these characters before. Which one is Iceman? Which is the Beast? Angel? And which one looks like a Cylcops?*

-----------------------------------------------

Wow, that is a perfect illustration of your point. Good example.

That made me think back to when I was very small and had to beg my mother to read my comic books to me, for some reason she always read "Cyclops" as "Ky-clops", I thought that was his name until elementry school set me straight.

••

Took me a LONG time to realize the Thing's girlfriend was not named "A-LICK-a".

And a few years back I knew a guy who insisted on saying "Galacticus".

I remember being in Elementary School and having never seen the word 'rogue' before. Neither had any of my friends. We all had our own ways of pronouncing it. From Rawgew to Rouge to simply Ragu. Then, the animated series started and well... we all felt a little dumb.

Was there any fallout from that? Any kind of moral repurcussions?!?

Late to the party: the image on the first page is 
tragic.  The first comment nails it.  Another aug-
gests they look like villains, totally true; another 
suggests they look like the Hellfire Club, which 
is not at all unreasonable.

It was apparent they'd slap the name X-Men on
just about anything a long, long, time ago.  But with
this, with this "Uncanny X-Men"--good god, it's over
for me in ways I didn't think possible.

When I was working on DOOM PATROL, I was asked SO many times if I was going to use Madame Rogue.   (For those unfamiliar, the character was actually called Madame Rouge.)

My parents would always tell me "Look it up" when I would ask them to pronounce or tell me what a word meant especially when the word came from a comic or a book. As a result,I would grab a dictionary and learned to prounounce Rogue properly. The comics creators were a different story, Mr. Byrne with a long "I" sound. Don't even get me started on BooSkEEma and Bill Sin...the guy who draws the New Mutants.

Seeing the word "pneumonia" in a Spider-Man comic and figuring out it wasn't pronounced "pah-new-monia" blew my early-elementary school mind.

I had the same experience with Rogue. A friend and I talked about it and decided it was "Rogg-oo"

Meanwhile in Brazil, Cyclops is getting a brand new makeover: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGBoyQhEgxc

That is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen!

Can anyone send this to Jim Lee?
