I recently commented on Fans Howl in Protest as Judge Decides X-Men Aren’t Human — in particular, on this excerpt:
To Brian Wilkinson, editor of the online site X-Fan, Marvel’s argument is appalling. The X-Men ? mere creatures? “This is almost unthinkable,” he says. “Marvel’s super heroes are supposed to be as human as you or I. They live in New York. They have families and go to work. And now they’re no longer human?”
It seems that Brian Wilkinson posted his own little disclaimer on X-Fan:
Disclaimer: Though it’s true that I spoke with Mr. King about this subject, I feel I should point out that my quote is taken slightly out of context. I found the decision and situation humourous and was providing what the fan reaction might be like if this were to take place within the comics themselves. A few other factual errors may also exist within the article, but Mr. King may be forgiven as he is a self-admitted ‘newbie’ to the world of the X-Men.
(Now go back and re-read that disclaimer with your best Simpsons Comic Book Guy voice.)
