Spoilers below..

Marvel killed off my favorite character of 20 years, and I am actually sad.

They killed off Wild Child. Kyle Gibney. Made sure to do it so that it was unambiguous. I don't see them retconning this..ever. All because everyone, including the writers, thought he was "a joke." No. Instead of trying to work beyond whatever makes them think this, they'd just kill him off out of the blue. He was never a Sabretooth copy to me, having followed the character very closely.

You'll probably hate me, but I prefer AoA-verse Wildchild the best ><

Stinging a bit, yes. I liked AoA WC, but I never saw anything not to like about 616 WC who was quite different from Sabretooth if anyone bothered to pay attention.

I wish I could start a snail-mail campaign about this, like they want to do with the Draco.. Kyle had a lot going for him, and could have had a lot more. So he looked like Sabretooth and in part had similar powers. He was supposed to be his son, and Creed sure acted that way toward him.
