"How Not to Cheer Someone Up," by the X-Men
With Kitty fused in a Giant Space Bullet and out in space somewhere, a lot of people miss her (like me). But nevertheless one person seems to miss her the most, and that is Piotr Rasputin. He just lives his life by rote, exercising, teaching. "lifting heavy things," but not smiling and not painting. So his friends Logan and Kurt decide to cheer him up, and get the rest of the X-Men to help out.

From X-Men Manifest Destiny #3, 2 1/2 pages of an 8 page story. Written by Christ Yost with pencils by Humberto Ramos.

First Logan and Kurt get another X-Man to pick a fight with Piotr, but that doesn't work. So they move onto other things:




I found Quantum of Solace to be depressing as well, mostly due to how very much better Casino Royale was.




The runaway trolley is of course orchestrated by Logan. Logan finally just yells as Piotr to cheer up, dammit, and Piotr calmly tells him that he would if he could, so please stop trying to cheer him up.




Poor woobie.
