“Offline” indeed


I was reading this archived message board post about how Nightcrawler was created.

Why? I was learning more about Dave Cockrum and had found a link to it.

This message board post from 2002 is Dave’s write-up about how he first conceived of Nightcrawler, pitched it to DC as a member of the Legion, and then brought it over to X-Men as a member of the New X-Men.

Dave posted to the board as “Dark Bamf”. Then I looked again at the board member information when this caught my eye:

“Member Is Offline”

Dave Cockrum passed away in 2006.

“Offline” is an interesting euphemism.
