Just random X-Men related thoughts...

How much does Blob weigh, do we suppose?

How long would Nightcrawler's tail be?

And while he worked in the circus, did it pay well?

How much would it cost to heat the Professor's mansion? Sheesh... the electric bill must really kill. And the gas for that jet, too! Lucky he's got lotsa cash in the bank, huh?

Do the X-Men get paid by the Professor for running around saving the world, or do they just live in the mansion for free? What's the deal with that? You don't suppose they all have to get up at the crack of dawn, put on uniforms, grab a coffee, and get in the jet to go off to wherever and do a dangerous job for nuthin?

If Nightcrawler teleports with all this blue smoke, you don't suppose he gets health problems because of the smoke inhalation?

And what about people next to him when he teleports? That's second hand smoke... !

Kurt's tail is 3 feet long I think. And a lot of those questions should be in the Non-NC and Comic Related Stuff Area.

I remember reading that The Blob's weight was somewhere around 970 lbs.
Around 200 lbs. short of weighing as much as The Hulk!

Sorry, I don't know the metric conversions off the top of my head.

I heard that the X-men get paid for their teaching in the school. I think the free board, food, acceptance and the smug moral standing point are for the superhero bit.
I don’t think Kurt got paid in money for the circus … not really something that’s come up before.

That tail’s about three feet but it appears different lengths depending on the artist :D

I don’t know about the health problems with smoke, interesting concept though. They’re fumes from another dimension so I don’t think they’d be harmful. They do smell really bad though, :bamf making Nighty the victim of countless fart jokes.
