...if I have to drag you kicking and screaming, even.
I know you guys are used to me kicking and screaming, so I'm adding the dragging for variety. Because I CARE.

Ha! I remember when there was still the buzz over who the 5th member of X-Factor would be. There was a whole thing in Marvel Age. Someone guessed Dazzler, can't remember what their reasoning was for that one.

If a guy named Peter is a school principal, does that make the Peter Principle the Principal Peter Principle?

And just how principled is Principal Peter in the first place?
And is his last name Piper, as in "picked a pack of pickled peppers?"

Someone guessed Dazzler, can't remember what their reasoning was for that one. Actually, from what I've heard, Dazzler WAS originally supposed to be the fifth member. Then Kurt Busiek opened his big mouth and planted the seed that led to the return of Jean Grey.

When did the "original X-men" tease come into play? If someone got Dazz from that, I don't know how.
Sorry to say I ditched my Marvel Ages...ages ago.

According to Sean Howe's "Marvel Comics: The Untold Story" (great book, BTW), Bob Layton & Jackson Guice proposed uniting the original four male X-Men plus Dazzler, whose title was about to be cancelled.
Howe credits the idea for bringing Jean Grey back to an anyonymous fan who approached Roger Stern. But I distinctly remember John Byrne saying it was Busiek's idea.

Anyhow, the best X-Factor ever was was during Peter David's year-and-a-half run on Volume 1. Mayo jars! Rahne dreaming that she's Ren and Feral is Stimpy! Doc Samson guest starring! Guido cracking wise! Hulk cross-over! And so much more!

Well...there WAS a parody of Ren & Stimpy's "Happy Happy Joy Joy" song that went:
Mutant Mutant Angst Angst Mutant Mutant Angst Angst
(Teeds, I have to re-start my computer. Be right back!)

Who the hell is "Lo" and did you mean to send a private message instead of creating a thread?

Do you want kicking first, or screaming? Your choice.
