This was made about the time X-Men: the Last Stand came out.
My friend, Jonathan Lawson-Reed (known in the comic as Duffy the Barista) took me to an IMAX screening of the movie.
(Yes, I know I could’a been Bishop, but it wouldn’t have been as funny.)

Seen in the first panel, more of my Bellingham friends and neighbors:

My friend Mandi (known in the comic itself as “Mandi With An ‘I'”) as Mystique.
Scarlet Grey as Phoenix (kinda fitting)
Eric Iverson, aka the man who, indirectly led to SFR's creation, as Cyclops.
Bethaney “The Beaver” Dukellis as Kitty Pryde
Jesse as Wolverine
and my former roommate, Eevee/Annie Rose, (known in the comic as Maxerg) as Beast: Her favorite X-Man, and possibly fave superhero, overall.

I know that the movie gets a bad rap, but really, it wasn't all that bad, it just wasn't as good as the 2 X-Men movies that came before it! Plus, The Internet is just one big parrot.

After all, the movie had MY favorite mutant superhero in it, even if he was (for some damn reason) portrayed as a VILLAIN. (Again. WTF?!)
