p. s. Yes, the Dazzler thingie was hilarious - but I don't like how they drew Nighty. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/mad.gif[/B]<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Oh! And he had such cute shorts! Let's just say he came of relatively mild, considering what was done to some. Poor Michael indeed.

Yeah Unlimited was pretty cool.The story
ok and I really like Deodatos Nightcrawler!My favorite pic was in that 1st panel on page 7 of the story--where Kurts crouching on that gargoyle just before he leaps off of it.And when Kurt comes out of the shadows and grabs the crook was dramatic.And then when Kurt dangles him off of the building--he really scared the crap out of that guy.Its good to see Kurt show his harder side once in a while.I agree that it makes him more real--well rounded.
I also thought the Dazz story was a fun little story.The cameos were cool.I thought the Hulk was hilarious--"Sniff.Hulk fine!Hulk just has something in eye!"The big softie*Lol*
I also liked that Illyana/Magik pin-up on the last page by Sienkiewicz.

Ok, I just had to answer to this:
**and do a lot more of those funny yogas! **
Oooh, yeah!!! Especially those! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
**Maybe he opens his mouth a lot because he has a lot to say lately?**
**Personally the mouth thing doesn't bother me. Closed mouths would**
True. Let's all be thankful the elf has got his voice! There, gnahrf, everyone has come together to give you enough theories to last you a few long nights of deep meditation, don't you feel special? http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/smile.gif
**it's cool to see NC in some of these scenes looking like he's in a rage! **
One word: DITTO!!
**You all must be thinking up Churchill's rendition of the elf in uncanny**
Hm, maybe. Perhaps that idea might have formed unconsciously in my head. Thanks for pointing it out. Hold on, let me go back and change that...these sort of things aren't too good to hold on to, gotta keep them in check.

Very true GNAHRF!
DEODATO has joined ADAM HUGHES on my list of "Artists who I want to see more Nightcrawler stuff from."

BAMF!

Heh! I haven't even thought of that Bamf. Yeah it is strange that he didn't get the preist out of there. He could have just grabbed him and teleported him somewhere. hmm....

DITTO DRAGS!!
I very much enjoyed the story and art. Kurt did look a little different each time Deodato drew him though. Almost as if he was still trying to get a handle on the character. In spite of that I thought that the art was excellent overall. ( those backgrounds... http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/eek.gif )
There was one little thing about the story that kind of bothered me though. Just why the heck would Kurt leave the Priest unprotected for so long? Wouldnt his 1st instinct be to get the Father to safety, then take care of whatever antagonists were present? With his power he could have done this relatively quickly and still had time to take out whatever badguys were lurking around. I understand that Kurt didnt seem to want the Priest to know he was a mutant, and that the Priests' confrontation with 'Thomas' was integral to the story, but it just seemed unusual that Kurt would leave him so vulnerable for so long. (Unless somewhere off panel Kurt told him to "Get to safety" and he assumed the Father was out of danger?)
Overall I thought it was really good and it left me hungry for more solo Kurt stuff!
I'd have paid the cover price just for the 3 panels with this little snippet...
thug: "Man, I always get left behind. Never get in on the action."
Kurt: "I wouldnt worry too much about that, mein freund."
(Cut to the kick a@@ picture from ELWING's scan)
"I'd say the action's found you."

This is something that came into mine mind as well, and well there it kept hitting my said mind with an outrageous awarness that it all was unlogical and improbable... Anyway, I liked the story - even though it had many resemblences to other stories, but for that the art quite clearly made up.

Good point Bamf!.
I think this was a small discrepency made because they needed the priest to confront the thug. (Plot device)
To play the devil's advocate, you could say Kurt didn't want to risk injuring the priest with a teleport...
