I don’t subscribe to the modern view of Xavier. Modern Xavier is basically a villain. The thing with “Danger” (god what a wack character) and that “Deadly Genesis” bullshit doesn’t exist in my mind. Xavier is not a murderer or manipulator or enslaver.

My Xavier still runs the school and is still the X-Men’s mentor. My Xavier’s dream of peaceful coexistence is still the X-Men’s primary objective. Xavier is based on Martin Luther King Jr. and I think it goes against character to portray him as heartless and irresponsible as he’s been this past decade or so. Not to mention the fact that he’s already had tons of small periods of vilification in the past. It’s just freaking redundant. Every writer thinks they’re doing something poignant by revealing some evil Xavier secret. It’s only poignant to someone who didn’t read the books when the same shit happened before.

I think there are ways to make the man interesting without making him some secretive asshole. You can still give him flaws– flaws that don’t turn him into an evil jerk. Work with his hoards of ladies he’s romanced in the past. The man’s a ho! Work with his obsession with super-heroism; the costumes, codenames– it’s all technically his idea. Work with how he sometimes uncontrollably mentally shouts at his students and then draw the big blue floating head. lol TUMBLR LINK
