Except for Dazzler and Howard the Duck, I didn't know about the rest.

We are what we are Scott--wishing won't change a blessed thing. Nor will feeling sorry for yourself. I learned very early on that I must either accept what I am, or go mad. And though I am now occasionally crazy, I am not mad. If you keep tearing your guts apart every time you think the world's shafted you, my friend, you'll destroy not only yourself, but those who love you.

Dazzler was never in Excalibur.

can't recognize Dazz in Excalibur either...And she always seemed so standard and contrived to me. But at least Squirrel Girl gets a mention! Go, Time!

Dazzler may have been in the second Excalibur series.

These are some of the strangest things I've ever seen!
I have heard of Lockjaw... he was the big bad guy in the recent Pet Avengers comic.
I have also heard of the Great Lakes Avengers... My friend and I had a good long laugh about them. Especially their names. Can you be more obvious? Mr. Immortal, Big Bertha, Squirrel Girl.... well, maybe Armor is more on the nose, but still!
Swarm is another one I know of... the Runaways fought him in Southern California awhile back. (My best friend LOVES the Runaways. Almost as much as he loves Spiderman!)
And seriously? Dazzler is considered one of the weirdest? What about that kid who can pull bones out of their back?
Those were the ones I recognized.... I think I'm too young for Howard the Duck. Either that or my comic-loving friend wisely steered me away from him.

RIP Kurt Wagner. You were the character who brought in me into comics, who introduced me and inspired me. Now your death has sent me away again. Wherever you are in the Marvel Universe, I hope its someplace pleasant.Right across the lane from the demon and just down the wall from Wolverine.
