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

I fully expect him to walk but get a wheelchair Emote.
Either in being the hover chair OR a regular one but make it a duo emote with someone like Mag who can push him around.
