Too bad we don't have a catchy assembly call! Y'know like "Champions Convene" or something!
Since when did being a mutant become a crime, friend?
Whoa! You come in different colors now? How many varieties of Hulk are available these days?
...My dad's Irish-Catholic, my mom's Jewish. I was the only kid in Hebrew school who got off for St. Patrick's Day!
Funny. When you get the high-level government clearance The Defenders received after the Secret Empire Affair, people start believing whatever you tell them! I don't think I like that.
At home I was always the baby boy -- being coddled and protected! In the X-Men, I was the weak link -- the kid who couldn't hold his own! Is it any wonder I was never sure of myself!
Teamwork. You gotta love it.
ICEMEN... SMASH!
My name is Bobby Drake. Iceman. I've been an X-Man, an X...Factor-ian, a Defender, a Champion (don't ask). I've been a super hero since before I was old enough to shave. I've stood side by side with the toughest, most powerful heroes in the known universe and always held my own. But today... today I need to be something more. So go ahead, call me a joke if you want. Label me the X-Man with the lamest power ever. But a man of untapped potential? Don't you dare ever call me that again!
Hey -- pointless combat is what we do best, buddy!
Save yourselves...and leave me to die...with the city...I will destroy!
Say "uncle," Rask, or I freeze your face!
Trust me!
Now I'll do it my way, by myself!
Then fight me without powers.
I am pulling the most totally bizarre vibes off the others.
Oh... sorry! Was that cold? Just be glad it wasn't Wolverine giving you the wake-up call!
Whatever it is, we can handle it.
Ridin' an iceboard is a blast too...but I don't make a federal case out of it!
Just the three of us... against a joker with the power to knock down a mountain! Whatever happened to the weak villains... like Magneto and the Sentinels?
Oh man! That was like pulling myself up by my bootstraps -- after knitting the boots out of my own guts.
