The Nightcrawler

(An artist's impression of the Nightcrawler. Picture downloaded from here )

Dash finally caught X-Men III last week. But Dash's favourite X-men, the Nightcrawler was nowhere to be found in the movie! : (


One of the enduring themes in the X-Men series is this quest for one's identity - Wolverine searches for his past, Rouge tries to find ways to fit into her world, and Storm learns to assume leadership responsibilities. Dash guesses the Nightcrawler is the most attractive character because of his gentle introspective manner in coming to terms with his identity, and his honest and earnest attitude towards his friends. It's ironic that the Nightcrawler has such a violent start in X-Men II when under the influence of drugs, since he turns out to one of the most pacifist personalities.

Of cos, his blue colour makes him a compatriot of the other good-natured blue creatures, the Smurfs. Ahhh...
