Not like I mind Fictional Robots trying to live normal lives or Robot/Human romance but trying to use that as an allegory for interracial marriage is offensive to me.
Especially in the Marvel Universe they didn't need to make an allegory they could have literally used two characters of different races (Here's an idea Steve and Wanda considering Wanda is Romani and Steve is white) they could have actually talked about an interracial marriage rather than pretending a one off production robot is equivalent to a race.
Also I have a new contender for most boring character: Emma Frost, I don't hate this character but she's never really interested me doesn't help that writers like to make sure she's the main X-woman regardless of the other more interesting women on the team.

I find everything associated with the Hellfire Club dull but at least they aren't the snooze that the Shi'ar, the Starjammers and the Brood are.
Cei-U!
Realizing he's really not a Claremont fan!

The Vision is exponentially more interesting than Red Tornado. And The Vision ain't all that interesting.

I think the opposite, she was the comic worlds first B**ch that was popular. I enjoyed her in Morrisons run. |

The Vision certainly had more potential up front than the Tornado but tying him to the original Human Torch destroyed it.
Cei-U!
I summon the unnecessary plot twist!

Domesticated Vision was effing creepy. *shudder* I agree with the readers that think that marriage is the death to drama. The only exception is the Family oriented FF title. |

Yeah I'm not a fan of Claremont either  I do enjoy some of his stories but I can't really say I'm a fan of him given his treatment of some of my favorite characters. The Shi'ar aren't all bad at least I found the Imperial Guard to be amusing as they're all expies of the Legion of Superheroes. Starjammers... I'm curious to see what that team would have been like with Cockrum's original intentions. and the Brood are just meh. |

I think the opposite, she was the comic worlds first B**ch that was popular. I enjoyed her in Morrisons run. Agreed. Her whole "my body is fake, my accent is fake, but my attitude is real" persona really fleshed her out. She revels in the fact she is a b$tch. |

I'm going through a Legion thing at the moment and I find the Dominion extremely boring. Since Invasion and their use in my beloved Legion through whatever else they have forced their way into, they BORE me. I dont even read their parts of a comic, and try not to waste my eyes on them either, THE worst race design ever IMO.

I like Amelia Voght's history with Xavier, but her last name is her codename. How dull for a mutant terrorist! Even he forgot who she was.Havok and Polaris are equally bland for me. Polaris has some great costumes but she can't carry my interest. |
