| X-Men: The Movie Special (Comic Book) | comment |
X-Men: The Movie Special is a one-shot comic released as a tie-in with Marvel Comics and Wizards of the Coast's X-Men Trading Card Game. It featured cover art by Art Adams, a story by Jay Faerber and pencils by Anthony Williams (who also drew X-Men's comic book adaptation the same year).The comic serves as a sequel to the 2000's X-Men. Set sometime after the Liberty Island incident, it begins with the X-Men battling the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Wolverine and Rogue fight Sabretooth in California, while Cyclops, Jean and Storm go and tangle with Mystique and Toad in New York City. After two lengthy battles, the villains are defeated and the day is saved.But as it turns out, this was all a distraction by Magneto to keep the X-Men busy while he and three new mutant followers he calls the Acolytes go and see a boy named Malcolm. Malcolm is a young mutant, and Magneto is attempting to pour a honeyed potion in his ear to have him join the Brotherhood. Professor Xavier, having seen through Magneto's plan, shows up to offer Malcolm an alternative to Magneto's bleak world outlook. Magneto tells his newest underlings to deal with the Professor... but Xavier didn't come alone, having brought three new X-Men, Colossus, Angel and Psylocke, and thus a battle begins to determine the fate of Malcolm.For obvious reasons, the comic's plot was rendered completely non-canon by the release of X2: X-Men United, but it remains an interesting "what-if" story, particularly for its depiction of Rogue, Angel, Colossus and Psylocke in the movie versions of the X-Men costumes.As a bonus, the comic included sections covering the development of the Trading Card Game, and included production artwork of characters intended to appear in it. And since the card game was based around the movie, this means the bonus material shows characters such as Beast and Marrow in movie-themed X-Men uniforms. | |

Canon Foreigner: Malcolm. Odd given how he's the central figure in the plot, with both Xavier and Magneto fighting over him. He'd never appear again in any Marvel properties (nor do we learn exactly what his mutant power is). | |

Emerging from the Shadows | |
| X-Men: The Movie Special (Comic Book) / int_2ab79021 | comment |
Emerging from the Shadows: When the Acolytes first appear, they're just a threatening presence standing behind Magneto and Malcolm while they're talking, half-hidden in the shade of a tree. We can't make out their faces, just the basic outlines of their bodies, enough to tell Magneto has some Mooks with him at least. But when Magneto introduces them to Xavier, they come out from under the tree and are revealed in the light. | |

Glass Cannon | |
| X-Men: The Movie Special (Comic Book) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: Frenzy can't take as much punishment as she dishes out. She repeatedly (painfully!) beats Colossus, but eventually he just knocks her back with one punch and she's out of the fight. To be fair to her, though, he's freakin' Colossus, so it's possible she could've taken more hits from a different enemy. | |

Shut Up, Hannibal! | |
| X-Men: The Movie Special (Comic Book) / int_4127eb1 | comment |
Shut Up, Hannibal!: Done twice. First by Psylocke to Cortez when he is standing over her laughing at her rather than finishing her off; she musters her Heroic Willpower to stab him in the head with a psychic blade. Then by Colossus to Frenzy when she is trash-talking him with her Punctuated Pounding and he finally just backhands her, telling her (literally) to shut up. | |

Punctuated Pounding: A few times. First by Rogue, when she's beating up Sabretooth after absorbing his strength. Then, when Colossus is fighting Frenzy, Frenzy punctuates each of her blows with an insult against him. He then fires back with some punctuated pounding of his own when he delivers his Big "SHUT UP!" and knocks her away. | |

Putting on the Reich | |
| X-Men: The Movie Special (Comic Book) / int_bcba27a1 | comment |
Putting on the Reich: The Acolytes' Anvilicious uniforms, especially Cortez and Frenzy's, have a definite Nazi officer look to them. Senyaka's appears to be the same but it's difficult to tell given the hooded cloak he has on over it (although we do see he at least has the same pants and knee-high boots as them under there when he's fighting Angel). These outfits are particularly ironic given Magneto's own experiences with the people who wore those uniforms. | |

We Can Rule Together | |
| X-Men: The Movie Special (Comic Book) / int_c420a553 | comment |
We Can Rule Together: Although Magneto never explicitly says this to Malcolm, given his mutant supremacist views, it's a pretty much a given that this is going to be part of his sales pitch. Xavier interrupts him before he can give the boy the full speech, though. | |

Offscreen Moment of Awesome: It turns out that while Storm was busy defeating Mystique, Jean managed to capture Toad in a big psychic bubble thing. It happens entirely off-panel. After Mystique is flung against a car and knocked out, it just cuts to Toad in the bubble. | |

Muscles Are Meaningless | |
| X-Men: The Movie Special (Comic Book) / int_cf9b131f | comment |
Muscles Are Meaningless: Subverted. Frenzy is a woman of ordinary height and build who, thanks to her mutant power, can repeatedly punch Colossus hard enough to cause him pain and even knock him off his feet. Despite this, Colossus quickly proves that muscles do matter when he finally decides to stop letting her get free shots, and he proves to be the stronger of the two. | |

Big "SHUT UP!": Colossus delivers one to Frenzy, who won't stop talking while she's fighting him, punctuated by backhanding her. | |

Unexplained Recovery | |
| X-Men: The Movie Special (Comic Book) / int_e5d8460d | comment |
Unexplained Recovery: It's never explained how Sabretooth and Toad survived. With Sabretooth, he has Wolverine's healing factor, so a fall from the top of the Statue of Liberty and then through a boat isn't going to irreparably damage him. Toad, though, is a little harder to reconcile, considering he was electrocuted with a bolt of lightning (through his tongue!) and sent flying several yards out to sea. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |
| X-Men: The Movie Special (Comic Book) / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Big Damn Heroes: Xavier and the three new X-Men showing up to stop Magneto from tempting Malcolm. It may not seem like a big deal, but they're effectively fighting to prevent an innocent boy from having his heart filled with hate and cynicism like Magneto, so when they show up and interrupt the Master of Magnetism's efforts to turn the boy to his side, it's a pretty satisfying moment. | |
