Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
6. Defend your opinion
This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

The x-men show? I enjoyed it as well.
I mean marvel mutant and he originated in the comics but im not sure he has ever been part of a team or had his own comic.
There was definitely at least one Legion comic book series. That's where the character came from.
Yes, it's a great show. Noah Hawley made it, who also made the Fargo series and stuff
I though legion came out of a new mutants arc.
You're correct, he came out of a new mutants arc, back about 40 years ago. He did also eventually get a solo series, as well as sort of a team series, but those were much later, and certainly not where the character came from. He was just a character that would occasionally pop up in X books for many years before actually having a book. Unless the other person was more just saying the character came from A comic book series, not specifically a Legion one.
But anyway, X-Men Legacy (Vol. 2, 2012) was basically a Legion solo book. Si Spurrier wrote it, had 25 issues, and was a lot of fun.
Then Si Spurrier returned to write Legion of X, well into the Krakoan era. Was basically a team book of Legion, Nightcrawler, Juggernaut, Pixie, and maybe someone else? Legion and Nightcrawler were definitely the main character focuses though.
Neither resemble the tv show in any way.
my comic days were win the eighties and nineties with the majority of that being in the middle 85-95 span.
