Anole

Post by Feuerstein »

I know he's one of the New Mutants, but I don't see him too often in NXM. He was just in #34 according to UXM.net, but I don't even remember him. I'm interested because some hardcore (really hardcore) NXM fans I was talking to told me he's supposed to be Nightcrawler-done-right or some other crap. It seems the NXM fan community is very divided between those who like Anole and who don't. From the little I've seen since learning about him, he's a cute character, but does seem to have some Nightcrawler-rip-off-ish traits. I don't know; what do you think?

You'd think if Marvel was going to spend time "doing Nightcrawler right" they'd actually do it with Nightcrawler. But... that's Marvel for you.

Here's Anole. He's a Lizard Boy:

Kind of a cute little bugger I guess. He has a prehensile tongue, can camoflage himself, and sticks to the wall.

And he's an ipod fan.

... Lord... It's like, Kurt turned inside out.

Personally, I hate iPods, but the prehensile tongue thing totally has me sold. We all know Nighty can do amazing things with that tail, but a tongue must be EVER so much more useful... :lick

Refrains from commenting :P.

But yeah, I have to say there is something about him that makes you want to like...pinch his cheeks or something.

lol, maybe i just remember some of the older pictures or something, cause he looked a bit different earlier in the seires i think. ;) But yeah, he is a fairly interesting guy that i thought had a bit more potential to be used in the kids seires. They used psuedo clones of other big name people, i think he'd be more of a Toad done "good" and i mean good as in moral, not good as in well writen. But that's just my thoughts ;)

He looked, but that was because of the different style, I guess :P

And honestly said, that guy can't be a 'new Nightcrawler', since he's rather shy, I think. :shifty

And yup, he's rather Toad. And that Pixie chick is another Angel (without the creepy children...), X23 is the newest Wolverine rip-off, and Rockslide is similar to the Thing. But there are also original characters, so I don't mind :P

I'm not very familiar with 616 Toad. All I know about him is that he's Magneto's lackey and crushes on Wanda.

But it makes sense Anole is more like him, considering he's green and has that crazy tongue. ^_^ Of course it's obvious X-23 is the "New Wolverine" character, but I hadn't noticed about Meghan and Santo! That's sort of interesting. Makes me worry they're going to replace our old-timer lovies. :cry Eh... not much chance of that, right?

And ditto to steynedvelvet... he is rather cute! :)
