Of all the new X-Men that were created which ones will last?

Does anyone think any of the newer mutants introduced with the New X-Men series actually have any type of staying power which will last 20 years. Does anyone have staying power in your opinion?

Dust

I close my eyes
Only for a moment, then the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind.:)

I don't know anymore--I used to think that the characters from Generation X would be around for a while, but very few of them are. And the New Mutants have only a slightly better average than GenX.

if I had to pick...I'd hope for Rockslide.

But, it would be a great story for all of these little tykes to play the part of the Morlocks in Mutant Massacre II!:)

I bet X-23 is in for the long, long haul. :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock: She's the only one I'd say is a lock, although Pixie, Dust and Rockslide have worlds of potential. Still, there's not a bad character in the lot: Hellion, Surge, Mercury, Anole, Nezhno, etc.

I agree with X-23. (Hey, that rhymes!) :thumbs2:

I wouldn't hold your breath on the others. There are tons of "teen" heroes that seem to come and go with the recent generations, rarely to be heard of again.

X-23 is the worst!

I would love to see the impact her death would have on Logan!

Shame, shame, ryche! Posting such a shameless ploy to stir controversy! :rolleyes: You don't even read X-23 comics!

in my opinion X-23 = shameless ploy to milk Wolverine even more then he already is

or maybe i'm too old-school?

That was my first impression as well. I had never heard of X-23 until my nephew got a Marvel Vs. card featuring X-23. I wasn't interested at all.

BUT, after hearing so much about the "X-23: Innocence Lost" and "NYX" trades, I bought them. I have loved the character ever since. Despite the obvious genetic link, Laura Kinney is worlds apart from Logan in terms of background, temperament and personality. There's not much of a common vibe between them because X-23 was raised purely to be a weapon.

Plus, it is only recently that X-23 and Logan have had any extended exposure in the same comic book. Kyle and Yost have been doing fantastic work for Marvel, and it's obvious how much care they have been taking with X-23. Readers can tell she means something to them, and when writers are invested in their characters, it can make all the difference.

Ms. Marvel, Spider-Woman and She-Hulk have carved their own niche in the Marvel Universe and they are no less based on previous characters. I feel confident X-23 will be every bit as lasting as Ms. Marvel, Spider-Woman and She-Hulk. :)
