shahrozhaider26 asked: Tom recently u gave very intrstng info analogy og quasar not being on active avengers roster but he is an avengers. so u think same goes for x-men? i mean can we say (or u people at marvel think) that sunfire is x-men but he is not currently in active roster? Regards
I think the Avengers and the X-Men are different, in that the Avengers is a quasi-paramilitary organization that has a charter and bylaws and so forth. It’s a professional organization, and therefore has a relatively strict definition of such things. The X-Men are an activist group and an academic group. Their set-up is not so rigidly defined, nor are the members of their organization. So sure, I think Sunfire was an X-Man at one point, there’s no denying that.
