Perhaps Ben Grimm was depicted on panel drinking earlier, but I am not sure. These days it seems like any depiction of drinking, smoking or sex in any enertainment medium automatically draws the wraith of the political correctness police. I still hate the f-ing media for saying 'Mass Effect' was a horrible game because there is sex in it. >.> God damn soccer mums who dont know a good story if they see one...

I am along time smart/bad-ass supporter and for me Wolverine is the grand daddy of the category! I think it`s half his charm, too, also a nice way to balance the berserker. Or a good way to lift the spirits when the team is down on their luck. That`s the great thing about Logan, you can rely on him to back you up both literally or morally! Gorvar What about Tony Stark? Dude drinks more then he can handle. With Tony it was more of a plot device, whereas drinking was depicted as one of Logan`s character traits. Never an issue with him...as long as he can heal, that is. Edited by Ahma, Jun 29 2010, 05:44 AM.

Wolverine's drinking, smoking and occassional swearing reflected that, just as Storm's preference for being nude at the drop of a hat.

The first team always seemed a bit brain washed into 'Xavier is all and can do no wrong'. The second team had their own reasons for joining and could see multiple sides of an issue. Why I always liked it better.
