Danger Room Cold Open: Difference between revisions

This is similar to The [[Batman Cold Open]], only it's used for teams, particularly the [[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]]. Usually depicted in a training room situation, this trope often sees a team practicing for actual combat, using [[Attack Pattern Alpha|various strategies barked out]] by their [[Standardized Leader|Strait-Laced Leader]]. The scene is designed to have each member show off their particular abilities--beabilities—be they mutant powers, or cool gadgetry or weaponry--asweaponry—as well as [[Establishing Character Moment|reveal some aspect of each member's personality]] through short quips and pithy comments.

Other variants include [[Baseball Episode|playing baseball]], wherein powers are out of bounds--untilbounds—until somebody [[Mundane Utility|uses them anyway]]--and—and testing the mettle of a new member.
