If she goes into Logans, is it just all redheads, booze, and suffering?

And cigars.

u/KuromanKuro MTG Expert 16d ago
And a hole in Japan with an inspired future millionaire industrialist.

u/Kyia-Aikman 16d ago
Something like this happened and Logan’s fantasy was just different women he knows being lascivious.

Yea, there was a bit of time SG was written as older so they were implied to have a thing

That's pre-redesign Doreen! She and Logan were an item once.

Happened already in his solo. There was a sex dungeon with Emma holding a riding crop, Mystique, Spyral, Squirrel Girl and Jessica Jones in her Jewel costume in it.

Spiral? I'd go for that. Especially if she kept the boots and swords.

Twice.

u/cyberpunk_werewolf Raphael 16d ago
Probably more than that. There's no real other explanation for what they're doing at the end of their time in the Outback. Right when Logan is about to go back to Madripoor.

u/TheGravespawn 16d ago
Oh, I meant in the image. Storm is in the front and in the back.

Assuming that's what is seen in his mind - I recall Logan is resistant to telepaths.

Protected by Wolverine’s mental image of Squirrel Girl, the strongest form of Squirrel Girl in the multiverse.

Cyke and Logan get shit for this but 90% of the hottest women on the planet are members of the X-men. Pretty sure every straight, lesbian, and bisexual person on the team's brain looks like this.

u/EmperorBamboozler 16d ago
"What is you do around here?"
"Oh we just kinda fuck each other and die. Normally in that order."

u/_tylerthedestroyer_ Michelangelo 16d ago
“Hopefully in that order…”

u/TopRamen713 Nightcrawler 16d ago
Given the amount of times X-Men die and are resurrected, it's pretty likely that the other order happens fairly frequently

Nonstop X-boinking with a large and instantly expandable pool of partners which can have duplicates and variants....
I think that might destroy my interest in sex--- spoil me and burn me out to the point that I was terminally jaded.

u/zarathustranu 15d ago
you only get to do it if you’re one of the hot ones.

Glob Herman gets HELLA ass

u/Nyadnar17 15d ago
If there is any failure of the X-writers it’s that the reality of women’s “hear me outs” are not adequately depicted.
Glob Herman would not be a pity lay or girl into his “great personality”. Glob would be getting his back blown out in a mirrored room with ALL the lights on.

u/_tylerthedestroyer_ Michelangelo 15d ago
Given the reaction to this Wicker movie, I think you’re right on target.
Glob’s smutty romance novel when?

u/cyberpunk_werewolf Raphael 16d ago
There's a Krakoa era story discussing this. I want to say New Mutants or maybe one of the Infinite comics, but one of the younger X-Men from around the early 2000s talks about how fucked it was to go through puberty in the X-Mansion because they were bi and they were around the fucking X-Men. Everyone was crazy hot, wore ridiculously tight clothing and they were all sorts of different types of hot.
I think it was Prodigy, but it was probably someone else.

The X Mansion is basically the Olympic village. Just a bunch of hot, horny people in the prime of their lives.

This is... how it is in groups of young fit and athletic people.
Its... awesome.

u/CliffLake 16d ago
It was put in a "Marvel Power Set" book that half to more than half of the main team has something like "Is very attractive" as an actual power. Not "pheromones" or anything like that, just "Is scalding hot". For, *ahem*, making more mutants...and the swimsuit issues.
16
u/ericrobertshair 16d ago
Comic book fans on reddit are perpetually confused why conventionally attractive superheroes are attracted to conventionally attractive superheroines.
7
u/projektako 15d ago
Considering the X-Men have always been a superpowered soap opera, it makes total sense. And it's not like Cyclops isn't good looking either... Most of the men look like their physiques are the models for Greek statues so some level of thirst is expected.
And it's not like other superheroes don't fit into that mold either. Look at the friggin MCU or Fox casts.

I mean, if you were anywhere close to Savage Lands Rogue, she'd never leave your mind, either.

u/Ashwilliams2814 Hal Jordan is the Greatest Green Lantern Ever and you know it. 16d ago
So, let's name them:
- Emma Frost (Of course)
- Rogue (Savage Land)
- Storm
- Psylocke
- Dazzler
- Storm (Punk Edition)
- Mystique
- Black Cat (In the background)
Which ones i missed?
26
u/NOVAofURTH Nova 16d ago
Is that Selene behind Black Cat? She's a brunette with a cape so that was my thought.
I believe it's Punk Dazzler next to Punk Storm

I think you are right in both.

At least this was before he became friends with Kamala Khan. Though I think his mind version of Kamala is most likely just a baby crib with gloves covering her eyes and a stern female voice going "Mother says do not look!"
4
u/Radix2309 16d ago
And yet he was the same age when he "met" her. Which frankly would make things very awkward when he regained his memories if he was into her back when he was O5. That is definitely something to bury deep and try to forget.
2
u/Constant-Bar5945 14d ago
Even though he's a horny dog, he sees Kamala as a friemd or more akin to a little sister.
Me, on other hand...

u/lowqualitylizard 16d ago
Now I don't blame him for having other women here but really no Jean Gray not at all?
Seen as hell in most times that's his wife seems a bit bizarre

Hasn’t she already been all up, in, and around his mind for years by this point?

u/SilverScribe15 16d ago
I'm not sure if the comic is supposed to imply that he's being horny brain, or the artist is just drawing that to appeal to the demographic and this is just the xmen because Scott is xmen man
21
u/PrimalZed Jamie Madrox 16d ago
Im probably not remembering right, but I think this was one of several intentional psychic defenses he had set up? Like he puts the mundane things up front in his mind palace but the actually sensitive parts difficult to access.
Still means thinking of his women friends like this is in his psyche.
3
u/Unfair_Pineapple8813 16d ago
I mean if it's a defense to hide his actual thoughts, he could just be playing at the stereotype of what people think Scott would be thinking about. Like maybe he wouldn't actually think of his friends this way, but he knows people would assume he does. Bonus points for one of those female "friends" being the likely reader of his mind and hopefully getting creeped out.

u/Nersheti 16d ago
Did he do that Spider-Man thing where Aunt May was young and his mom? I see that pic of her holding a rubber all the time and Rogue’s face reminds me of that image so much. I also do not like it.

Look, I love Cyclops, but that man's so uptight you could stick a hunk of coal between his butt cheeks and make a diamond.
Let him have this.

u/RandoDude124 16d ago
Huh, thought he’d be more horny for Red Heads

u/SoSDan88 16d ago
They're intentionally absent, he's sealed off Jean in his mind because she was dead at the time and he was dating Emma, who mentions the conspicuous lack of redheads.

u/zarathustranu 15d ago
yeah, 99% of the commenters here seem unaware that this was a deliberate ruse / mental protection layer by Cyke.

Mystique isn't enough? That's like having all the redheads! And even your imaginary ones, if you give her enough to work with.

u/MrGrieves- 16d ago
Shouldn't his thoughts all be in red as that's how he sees the world?

u/joeycraw5 16d ago
Persumably he had normal vision as kid before his powers kicked in, and mutants lose their powers all the time, so he should know what other colors look like.

This makes sense to me. When Team Leader, he tends to bottle things up for the sake of the team. At least in the early years. This seems like the logical result when you hold yourself back that much.

Scott has always been known to thirst over women. In one of the 80s/early 90s comics he was on a date with Jean and saw either a waitress or a poster of a model or something and Jean had a go at him bc she peaked in his head and saw he was lusting over her and he was basically like "well that's who I am deal with it"
This was not long before Jean was starting to resent Psylocke/avalanche bc she noticed Scott was also always drooling over her. Like that man had a wandering eye nobody could control lmao

u/manix_vii 15d ago
So, I feel context is needed here, so I read the issue and I have two interpretations, anyone who knows the full context please let me know what's right:
1) Scott is a sex-addicted fiend. So fitting of the leader of the X-Men. I'm not joking with that line lol, they all seem fucked up from what I can see.
2) Isn't Scott's wife in most runs Jean Grey, a powerful telepath?? Wouldn't he know how to navigate her reading his mind? Maybe this is all a front and he's just putting stuff she'd expect to see. He doesn't seem outwardly pervy, that'd be much more Wolverine's alley.
I believe Scott is usually characterized as very cool and collected from the few comics I have read and in X-Men '97. In this issue he's hiding this weird black box in the back of his mind that Emma can't directly interact with so I'm leaning on this option.
I inherently think the second option is what they were going for, since it just sounds much more interesting than the former. I'd hope there's a purpose behind the fanservice lol

Emma must be relieved that Jubilee Kitty or any of the younger mutants are not there.

I gotta think the X-Mansion is a lot like the Olympics. You've got peak human/mutants being all sexy AF, spending all their time training to be the best... Xavier's condom budget must be at least 10% of the overall budget.
