== X-Men Comics ==
* Despite losing the majority of his powers, [[Cable]] recently seems to be able to survive attacks that would have previously killed him (his throat being slit, multiple bullets in the back and a katana through the chest all the space of a few days). But then one realizes that his former powers help keep his techno-organic virus at bay, now although weaker power-wise he is much more stronger physically because the techno-organics have spread throughout his entire body. "It's hard to completely slit a metal throat"
* The final chapter of the Dark Phoenix Saga. At first it seems like a [[
* Wolverine in general. He often refers to himself as a "canucklehead". When I read this in my youth, I always thought he was pronouncing the silent "K" in knucklehead because he wasn't particularly bright (all that struggling with his animal side perhaps robbing him of higher cognitive function, I figured). Returning to comics after having experienced the world more myslef, I came to understand that he was talking about being both hard-headed (the adamantium helps) and a
* In "Slave Island" Jubilee is thrown into a sweat box for trying to escape the island. We later see her sweating and complaining about the heat, ''but she's still wearing her jacket.''
** More of an IJBM than Fridge, methinks.
* A moment that struck while reading [[Evil Only Has to Win Once]], which mentions how notable it is that the X-Men's bad futures seem to ignore all the other

Line 13 ⟶ 12:
* I actually like that Magneto isn't a Holocaust survivor in the animated series (not that there would be any way to justify that in-setting and be on children's television). It just makes it a generic "war" he's survived with his family killed. In many ways, it makes him much more applicable across a broad spectrum of origins.
* In the opening sequence, Warpath is grouped with Magneto and the villains, despite being a long-serving member of X-Force in the comics. At first this appears to be a case of [[Did Not Do the Research]]...but in fact, he was originally introduced as an antagonist in the comics, out for revenge against the X-Men over the death of his brother Thunderbird.
* Upon reading about some of the character's origins and re-watching episodes: [[Fridge Brilliance|Brilliance]] - The (originally) cartoon only character Morph is based off the (616) comic character "Changeling", who was [[Killed Off for Real]] many years ago...except for the time he was brought [[Back
* [[Fridge Logic|Logic]] - So, basically, in part 2 of "The Phalanx Covenant" Mr. Sinister drops by Muir Island while Morph is still staying there (to recover from what Sinister did to him)? I'm sure Morph was just ''thrilled'' about that.
Line 24 ⟶ 23:
* I always wondered why they went with the idea of making Scott into the angry loner and Wolverine into the badly fit leader. Then I realized that it wasn't just because of ratings. Professor X needs someone who is a brutal guerrilla fighter who doesn't mind getting his hands dirty to defeat the government gone wild. Cyclops is still needed because he needs to channel his rage over Jean's abduction into a weapon against the enemy. The X-men in this series, basically, are X-force.
