    Are any of you extremely familiar with the characters, especially the new ones seen in this trailer?


    I'm wondering if there is a good place to get a quick primer on these particular mutants somewhere on the net...

    I'm not sure about "extremely" familiar, but I'll help if I can. What would you like to know?

    Well, it appears there are some characters not yet seen in the movies. I was just wondering about their powers & any interesting back stories:

     

    Angel

    Callisto

    Beast

    Collosus

    Juggernaut

    Shadowcat

    others???

     

    ...and I don't have a good grip on the whole Jean Grey/Phoenix thing.

     

    Any info would be very cool!

    You should be able to find info on any of the characters' powers at marvel.com.

     

    'Any interesting back stories'....

     

    -Angel & Beast were members of the original team in the comics (which also included Cyclops, Jean Grey, & Iceman).

    -There was some rivalry for the affection of Jean betweeen Angel & Cyclops in the beginning.

    -Angel hid his wings from the public by strapping them in tightly

    -Beast wasn't so beastly in the beginning (although he did have oversized feet & was a bit hairy). His furry self also wasn't always blue..it looked blackish grey for some time in the 70's.

    -Colossus was one of the 'new' members (which also included Storm & Wolverine among others) that replaced the original 5. He's also Russian (I guess they'll probably drop this info from the movie)

    -Shadowcat was the youngest X-man (13?) at the time she came around. She joined right around the time the Grey/Phoenix thing was happening. In a sense, she replaced Grey. She appeared in X1 & X2 by running through doors & walls.

    -Callisto...don't know much about this 1. I quit collecting comics by then.

    -Grey/Phoenix thang...I wouldn't want to spoil the movie too much for you. Seriously, you should wait & see the flick on this point.

    Cool. Thanks!

    3 Ibanez (1 6-string, 1 5-string, and 1 4-string that was hand-made into a fretless before I bought it)

     

    1 Takamine acoustic bass

     

    1 Washburn 4-string

     

     

    I have an Ampeg amp & head, and a Peavey combo... and some other little amp (can't think of the manf)

     

    I've stopeed using amps and am now using the Line 6 Bass POD. Very very cool, IMHO. It's like having a couple dozen amps at your disposal, and it's about the size of a book.
