  • After Cassandra Nova's first assault, she broke Beast's confidence by exposing his insecurities about his new mutation, and had Beak beat him to a pulp. He confesses this to Jean, who explains that they are the X-Men, and losing isn't an option. He's afraid? Barnell thinks he's a hero, so he should be. And Hank looks magnificent now.
    Hank: I used to have fingers! You knew me when I could play the guitar!
  • The safe and healthy birth of Beak and Angel's babies, especially Barnell's awed reaction when they hatch.
    Beak: Look at the wingspan on that guy!
  • After the Wild Sentinel attack on Genosha, Magneto lay dying in the ruins. In his last minutes, he recorded the last words of the entire population of the island, and broadcasted them into the great emptiness, making them all immortal. Doubles as a Dying Moment of Awesome.
    Magneto: This is the voice. This is the voice of Magneto. This is the voice of the Genoshan nation. It's a strange thing, to die in the darkness. It's a strange thing to die. I was Magneto, the master of magnetic forces. Now, I will be a voice in the darkness, echoing forever. Once, I was a mortal man. Now, I am becoming memory, immortal. They must have thought they could silence us forever. Instead, we have become magnetic, unstoppable. Do you understand? Our voices will be broadcast around the world, into space. At the speed of light. At the speed of radio. Our voices traveling without end through the depths of time and space. Far beyond this life. And far, far.. beyond this death.
