I just glanced at the opening speech bubble and remembered thinking that a friend of mine must have never actually read X-Men comics before, as I know they write in the character's accents pretty much always, and I emulated that in a comic I did back at uni and this friend was beta reading for me and said not to do that as it was annoying and stupid and no comics ever did it, but when asked claimed they read a lot of X-Men XD
Rogue wanting a normal boring life is hardly a surprise, there's been so many comics around for so long through constant reboots it seems like the characters' lives are a little bit too action packed, I don't know when they would ever have time to sleep never mind anything else XD
Yeah I like the stories that do focus a bit more on their lives and wants beyond that stuff. It's interesting to see them as actual people with struggles, especially if it doesn't really align with the situations they're often stuck in. I think the moral dilemma of being able to help people but also not actually wanting to do it is quite a fascinating concept to consider. And it's hardly done.
Also I haven't seen a whole lot of the accent exaggeration in the dialogue either! But perhaps I just haven't read enough comics to notice.
I think it's mostly Gambit and Rogue in the X-Men comics as they have the strongest accents from memory. Then there's other fun stuff like characters having different font and speech bubble shapes and colours for their dialogue which makes them sound different XD
That's kinda fun. Does change things up a bit. Those two characters do seem like the more interesting ones compared to the usual.
Never thought I'd have even the slightest curiosity in this stuff. Admittedly a lot of my interest is in art and seeing how people draw things differently. But if the story is good, then I'm even more likely to stick around.
