X-Men Fan Site is simply a site designed, written, owned and operated by X-Men Fans. We built this site because of the great storytelling told in the comic books and the characters we all fell in love with as kids that have matured with us. Our site is totally and completely free with no ads so far. We will eventually offer sweatshirts and there will also be some ads within the next year or so in order to pay for the overhead costs of running the site. Our main goal is to draw fans to a site exclusively dedicated to X-Men and it's offshoot comic books. There they would be among fans, able to connect via forums and user profiles all while being offered original content articles, podcasts and editorials. We hope you register at X-Men Fan Site.com and join our growing community.
If you ever experience problems with our site or anything connected to our myspace page don't hesitate to contact us.
We've all been known to go though one or more changes throughout our lives. I've been an actor, a producer, a writer, a paralegal, a web designer, a programmer and like most of the X-Men, I'm not even thirty yet! As I look around at the world, I can't help but to see a human race of evolving peoples, all with different titles, changing names, jobs, etc. That being said, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH with Psylocke!
At the time of her debut, in the 1980's Chris Claremont created a nervous yet powerful new member of the X-Men who was able to take on Sabretooth alone. Unfortunately, Psylocke failed to connect with a majority of X-Men Fans which lead to her inevitable revamping. It was the early 90's; Havok, Rogue, Colossus and Psyclocke, forced to walk through the Siege Perilous at the cost of an erased memory and a new start at life, were on the verge of embracing this transition as they marched through the gates. Psylocke emerged, after having been brainwashed by Japanese Terrorists, as Lady Mandarin. At some point during her stint in captivity, her body and mind merged with Japanese assasin and mistress to mob leader, Kwannon. Betsy became half Asian as Kwannon became half British. In addition to her over sexuality,Kwannon's assasin personality also was half transfered into Betsy manifesting itself in Betsy's psychic knife, the totality of her psychic power. Psylocke had become a character for the 90's, part ninja, part fashion model, part spy, part X-Man, part assasin, but all beautiful and, by all acounts, all deadly.
So a friend and I were talking online about our favorite X-Men characters and the disappointing horror that was X3: The Last Stand (don't worry Brett Ratner, I still watch the movie like everyday) and we asked ourselves what actors we'd cast as our favorite heroes in X4 should there ever be one. Here are some of our picks:
Emma Frost/Julie Benz
In my own humble opinion, I've impressed the living "poop" out of myself with this casting choice. If you don't remember Julie Benz as the soft-voiced Darla on Angel, you can catch her on SHOWTIME's Dexter playing his girlfriend. Hollywood can search far and wide but Julie Benz is the only actress with the looks, the voice, and the acting chops to pull off a powerhouse like Emma Frost.
With new mutants being added to the mix, specifically Tattoo and Greymalkin to Young X-Men, here at X-Men Fan Site we thought we'd remind the writers of the X-Books not to forget some of our favorite under used mutants and also remind them and you, the readers, about some great mutants that were created in the history of the X-Men Universe that we think are pretty cool. These characters would make excellent additions to any X-Team.
Wolfsbane, Emma Frost, Polaris, Kitty Pryde, Rouge, Dust, Polaris, Scarlet Witch, Mystique, Domino, Maverick, Shadow King, Vertigo, the Hulk, Spiral, the Reavers, Multiple Man, Gambit, Pyro, and so much more are all going to be in the new cartoon.

Angels, roll the rock away;
Death, yield up thy mighty prey:
See, He rises from the tomb,
Glowing with immortal bloom. ~Thomas Scott
Easter is the demonstration of God that life is essentially spiritual and timeless. ~Charles M. Crowe
Where man sees but withered leaves, God sees sweet flowers growing. ~Albert Laighton
It is the hour to rend thy chains,
The blossom time of souls. ~Katherine Lee Bates
Easter is not a time for groping through dusty, musty tomes or tombs to disprove spontaneous generation or even to prove life eternal. It is a day to fan the ashes of dead hope, a day to banish doubts and seek the slopes where the sun is rising, to revel in the faith which transports us out of ourselves and the dead past into the vast and inviting unknown
