Like numerous Elder Millennials(TM), the most impactful introduction to Marvel Comics that I had growing up was the X-Men animated series. Literal books have been written about that show – and The Art and Making of the Animated Series book is very good, indeed – so I won’t try to compose my own brief history of the show here. But, what I will say is that one of my very favorite episodes, “Repo Man,” made me fall in love with the Canadian super-team Alpha Flight, and particularly the design of Vindicator/Guardian’s costume (I think Vindicator’s a better name, but Guardian is a better name for a superhero that you actually want people to trust, so, here we are).
James MacDonald Hudson’s anger at Wolverine seems to have permeated the mold of this action figure’s face, and I am so charmed by this that he will never not be angry in the Phil Wrede Marvel Action Figure Comic Universe.
