    The trouble with this "Origins" format is that I never know at what point your summary will stop... This time it stopped shortly before my favourite Iceman moments, these being his father standing up for him against Graydon Creed and his little rescue team during Operation Zero Tolerance. Still a very enjoyable listen, it's interesting to go through his story chronologically, thus having All-New X-Men happening halfway through 60s comics.

    Like many people my age I first encountered Iceman as a member of Spider-Man's Amazing Frieds. He was the reason why I brought my first issue of Defenders. So I've got a soft spot for Iceman.
    I think Iceman was oe of the first X-Men to have a solo series. He had a 4 issue mini series back in the early 1980s.

    Interesting case of naturally occurring power creeping in comics as people go "Wait, if that's how OOO's powers work... why doesn't OOO also do XYZ?" Storm and Magneto also come to mind as characters who were much more "innocent" power-wise at first, but someone must have read the OHotMU entries and gone "Wait a sec here..."
    The problem with super powers is that when you start to explain them, they can get quite problematic.

    I never liked the retcon personally. Not cause of any problem with a character being gay. More just how forced in it felt. Came off as if the writers or some corporate committee went "we gotta have a gay character here" and in turn fundamentally clouslded his character history as a result.
    Either that or they secretly meant for it to come off as Jean psychically changing Bobby for some reason.
    Would've made more sense for them to at least say he was Bi instead of gay. Probably would've still seemed forced but not nearly as much and wouldn't have invalidated investment in past relationships of the character that fans had .

      Same. I didnt like what young Jean did and I also dont agree with the theory that someone who has flings is closeted or the false logic that most closeted gay people come out later therefore Bobby must be gay because it can be applied to anyone straight. Not against gay characters but I need stronger evidence because it undermines all his past relationship and his identity as a straight character. If he started as a gay character would it be acceptable to turn him straight? He dated an alien that switched genders and was uncomfortable by it, he must be gay. He brought Rogue to dinnre with his overly conservative and bigoted dad, he must be gay. Not all his relationships where flings and for a closeted gay man he showed a lot of emotion towards the women he's dated. Polaris, Darkstar etc. So if anything being bi makes more sense.

Looking at his track record with women him coming to the realization later on in life makes a lot more sense than he's always been gay and always knew it. We have literally been reading his thought bubbles for decades. Hell maybe he was just questioning his sexuality is a young man and she pushed him into something he later in life comes to grips with.

It's pretty but simply Amazing how powerful he has become, also Bobby is not only one of the best X-Men ever, but also he's one of my favorite X-Men ever, also well played Merry Marvelite👏👏👏👏👏,an All Around excellent but superb interpretation of the life of The Iceman Robert "Bobby" Drake, also Bobby is one of the Founding Members of The X-Men but also both a Founding Member and Current Member of The X-Men/Krakoa X-Men,and his Mutant power is not only cool but also superb.🙂🟢👍🤛👏💪🇺🇲, as for X-Men Origins Cyclops i think I'll watch it tomorrow, also Iceman(Robert Bobby Drake 5'8"(adult,cah, variable,145ibs(adult,cah,(variable),Gender:Male Eyes: irises,Blue, Hair:Brown, Affiliation:(as of 2023): X-Men (Krakoa,Founding Member),also Bobby was the Second mutant to join the School after Cyclops.Until Jean became Phoenix,he actually was the most powerful of the 5 Teammates/X-Men.Hopefully you do an Updated Cyclops one later this year, also thank you for sharing Merry Marvelite keep up the great work stay safe out there have a nice day, and until next time True Believers Excelsior.🙂🟢👍💪🇺🇲🏋️🟢🦸❤️🤩

      Well if u remember chuck Austin’s X-men (I totally understand if you don’t) from around 2003-2004 it’s implied Bobby might be gay so I’m not sure if it was intentional but it wasn’t really out of nowhere. It definitely would of been worse if they turned any of the other OG X-men gay cause they’ve all had long running romances with important female characters. The only character I can think of Bobby having anything with was Polaris but I’m pretty sure modern writers have forgotten this.
      Edit: actually Beast toyed with being gay in the Morrison run now that I think about it, but that didn’t last.

    • @jerfuhrer2581
      @jerfuhrer2581 Рік тому +1

      Best one was X-Men: Evolution's Bobby. He was just mischievous enough and cocky enough while also being a tertiary character. SMAHAF had Bobby often be the butt of everyone's jokes. And he was pretty stiff. "Wolverine & The X-Men" had almost the same problem. He was played more as the dope rather than genuine prankster. And, in the movies, he was way more responsible, made the counteract Pyro.
      As for who should play him in the MCU, if he were still alive, I would 100% vote for Cameron Boyce! He had that Bobby Drake energy. So, without him.... it's a bit more difficult. I wouldn't want any of the "Stranger Things" kids because they're too big. I dunno maybe someone like Jake Short from "A.N.T. Farm." Though, his style is a bit more nervous and less flashy, but he could grow into the role. Possibly.

Changing up a race for separate content like movies and other universes is fine and even making him gay in those same other sources is fine. But making them different from who they originally were in the original stories feels like needless lazy pandering. However, I’m still open to whatever changes a story makes so long as the story is good or within valid reason. Try not to lean to hard into buzzwords like “woke” these days. It’s basically a blanket term recently.

      That’s the problem with sliding timescales, for both Marvel and DC, when it comes to things like these. Batwoman, Kathy Kane, was expelled from West Point because she was lesbian and refused to disclose who she was fraternizing with. She was created in 2006 with said rule being abolished later in 2011. That’s fine at the time but as time moves forward as well as the present day and relative past being pulled forward, it would be odd now when that bit backstory is shifted forward to the late 2010s. Same with another gay DC character, Metropolis Detective Maggie Sawyer. She was in her 30s when she was outed as gay in ‘87 with an angst-filled failed marriage and her daughter was given custody to her ex-husband. But time moved forward again and the timeline also shifted forward and in 2012, she references being out her entire life, making the backstory of her hiding in hetero marraige out of place. This causes hiccups in character backstories orginally tied to a certain aspect of society only for social change to happen later.

      @@foldabotZ Yeah, although in their cases, they were gay pretty much from the start of their characters, so their story was constructed with that understanding the entire time. In Bobby's case, he wasn't converted gay until 2015, so everything prior to that was invented after that and projected backwards into prior events.

      @@comicbookking3446 I was introduced to Iceman through Spidey and his Amazing Friends, the original X-Men comics, Champions, and Defenders, where he could encase himself in icy armor, project ice blasts and small projectiles, and travel by making slides. In 1987, Simonson had Loki "unlock" his potential, then later, I think Emma Frost did something similar. Basically, Iceman went from a mutant with an exceptional ability to a near-cosmic level elemental. As a kid, I always liked Marvel characters, because they had more defined limits than DC characters. It made them more relatable. DC had Superman, who could move planets and such. The original X-Men, had similar abilities as him (flight, laser vision, strength, cold) divided among multiple teenagers, but none of them could take on a supervillain alone. They were vulnerable, "everymen" who had one special talent, which made their courage significant and interesting. I loved seeing them develop from students to proficient characters, until each one became god-like in some way.
