| 1 | * HilariousInHindsight: A good deal of the series focuses on Quicksilver and Polaris being half-siblings (and at one point, Polaris and Wanda). Then, a few short months after it ended, ''Uncanny Avengers'' (thanks to the whole thing with Fox owning the film rights to X-Men) made a retcon that Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch supposedly aren't Magneto's children after all. |
| 2 | * MyRealDaddy: Even those who didn’t like the series agreed that Quicksilver’s portrayal was one of the best things that’s happened to him thanks to Peter David. |
| 3 | * ToughActToFollow: Most people agree that this series just isn't as good [[ComicBook/XFactor2006 the Noir era]], despite (or perhaps ''because of'') its more popular cast. Probably because PAD's writing of Polaris and Gambit just isn't as interesting as his interpretation of Multiple Man and Shatterstar (though his writing of Quicksilver was highly praised even by people who didn't like the series). Not help that Polaris is considered a ReplacementScrappy to Siryn who was PutOnABusToHell ''because of her''. |
| 4 | * UnintentionallySympathetic: Gorgon attacks Quicksilver in a blind rage after Pietro acknowledges his misdeeds, and is made to be a jerkass for it, but given Quicksilver's actions caused the US to nearly commit flat-out genocide on the Inhumans, and for Gorgon to be held prison and experimented on by the US government, it's not hard to see ''why'' he'd be so pissed (even if the comic never acknowledges any of this). |
| 5 | * WTHCostumingDepartment: Those bright yellow outfits don't do anyone any favors. |
