You had two # 3 so I just left Shadowcat out.

Yeah, it was pretty much a given he would run away with 1st place. That's why it was such a mindfuck that IGN put him fourth (and Cyclops at #1?!).

He's the man and all, but I never really liked him much as a character. He just seemed like a living plot device to me.

With his powers, he could basically accomplish virtually every X-mission himself just by dominating minds. But he's above that.


>3. Magneto - The Nas to Professor X's Jay-Z.

Second coolest villain ever, after DOOM.


>4. Nightcrawler - A swashbuckling blue elf with the power of

Yeah, he's the shit.

Cosign. I'm surprised so many people leave her out, but I guess she's a pretty minor character in the grand scheme.

Yeah, not feeling him as a hero, but whatever. He's a great character overall.

He seems like the ultimate love him or hate him character.

Cool.

Not sure about the creepiness factor. She's just a cool character who's always been down to earth. She does a lot with a pretty weak power (although it's obviously powerful if she can phase inside your body and then become solid).
