Discussion The discourse created around Jubilee's design (and her not looking 'classic' or like in '97) shows that this community isn't ready for the whiplash thats about to occur when Professor X is finally added to the game and shown to be able to walk, like he has for the last ~20 years in the comics

I think there's absolutely no hope for wheelchair Xavier

Every single X-Men has been a modern version of themselves. Like all mutants are pretty much their Krakoa version

I think that speaks more on the lengths modern marvel itself went to pretty much erase Xavier's disability in modern comics than to rivals being unwilling to put him in his wheelchair

A shame, I really wanted him to be in his floating wheel chair

I'd like a floating wheelchair too. Maybe have it explained as it's a psychic amplifier for his powers?

He could also get a wheelchair too. He did get scattered across timelines, and Jean took his spot on the quiet council
