Quesiton- On the Common Criticism of Wolverine hogging the spotlight so much that the other xmen don't get enough focus- How much of this is really true in the comics & how much of it is due to the Fox Films & other adaptations -
Cuz yes in the comics, Wolverine gets alot spotlight due to having his own solo and guest appearing in many non x-men books
But within the world of comic x-men- not really, i think. if anything, within the world of x-men- cyclops is more guilty of Big spotlight focus than logan. cuz alot of xmen comic mythos is driven by cyclops and the convoluted Summers Family Tree. which is ironic cuz cyclops gets dunked for being boring jerk who is overshadowed by wolverine.
if you look at the most iconic and beloved x-men stores- Dark Phoenix Saga, Days of Future Past, God Loves Man Kills, X-men #1 1991, Age of Apocalypse- alot of those stories don't have Wovlerine as the main driver
I dunno, Thoughts?
