Marcus: 2/10. Mackenzie: 4/10.

However, you both probably deserve an extra point because (and I thought this might happen) the words you gave for (7) are very close in their definition, but not exactly the same, to the word I'm looking for.

OK - Correct so far are 2) Akimbo 3) Awning 6) Acrophobia 7) Affable 9) Alfresco and 10) Allude

Any takers on the others?

*Digs through several piles of paper and finds this thread underneath a recumbant bloodhound*
todays quiz: Superheroes and villains. Answers are taken from the comics, NOT the X-MEN films.

1) Heather Cameron becomes which golden superhero?
2) Which villain is Senator Kelly's father?
3) Which villain adopted Rogue?
4) Who is the policeman from the future?
5) Ariel has two other superhero identities. Name both?
6) Whose diaries do Rogue, Sage, Bishop and Storm follow to Madripoor?
7) Which three X-Men were also New Defenders? (I want all three)
8) Who is Isaac Christian(s)?
9) Dazzler is married to which superhero?
10) What is Paige Gutherie's superhero identity?

OK ... I'm going to embarass myself here, as my experience of comics only reaches as far as the Tintin collection I had when I was a child:

1) Stretchgirl from The Incredibles?
2) No idea.
3) No idea.
4) Judge Dredd! Ha! I think I got one!
5) Nope ... dunno.
6) Oh dear.
7) Sorry!
8) He's a superhero : o )
9) Captain America.
10) He is ... Ice Man!

How did I do?

I'll give you half a mark for no (4). The rest are all wrong. Judge Dredd isn't a superhero from this genre.

Jun-11-2005 07:44

So it is not Robocop either? I really tried, but I don't know any of this stuff.

Jun-11-2005 07:45

1) Lifeguard
2) Don't know. I'll guess sabertooth.
3) Raven Darkholm and Irene Adler (Mystique and Destiny)
4) That's a really general question. There are a lot of answers.
5) Kitty Pride (aka shadowcat) and an alien.
6) Destiny
7) Beast, Angel and Iceman
8) Gargoyle
9) Longshot
10) Husk
