Thanks for your ask, and I love the Defenders so much too!

When I first saw what Marvel was doing with Krakoa, I rightfully called it a cult and many fans got mad about that, but I still stand by my opinion.

I feel that the discourse about "Krakoa is Israel" and the people who argue against that is mired in a lot of ignorance about the creation of the modern day X-Men by Claremont, and also what Genosha (the original "mutants only!" nation) was supposed to represent.

A lot of the mindset that revolves around Krakoa and a lot of the talking points fans bring up about mutants literally sounds like Israeli propaganda, and it's very alarming that people refuse to critically examine media; ex: seeing fans constantly reinforce the "Mutants are hated everywhere so they need a place of their own" is very close to the kinda propaganda that is pushed by Israel.

I'm not saying that Hickman set out to specifically state "Krakoa is Israel" but rather he was basing his Krakoa on Genosha (which is based on Israel) to explore that setting and he was trying to set up the eventual fall of the Mutant Ethnostate. However his time with the X-Men was cut short after Marvel and the creative team derailed his plans. So Krakoa is based on the idea of Genosha, which is the first time such a concept was introduced into the X-Men Lore, which was created by Claremont, (who is a Zionist and spent time living in Israel).

Bruce Banner/The Hulk:

Reuniclus is a very intelligent Pokémon and just overall science-themed. Chansey is known for helping injured people and can be seen in the medical field. Metagross has the mind of a supercomputer and is created when two Metang fuse.

Lycanroc evolves based on the time of day and has an intense fighting spirit. Snorlax is a docile, gentle giant and can eat anything without hurting itself. Tyranitar is so strong it's able to change the landscape.

Lucille Novak/Soundbite:

2 is Scott Summers aka Cyclops!

Oh god... where do I start with Scott. I have to say I've read so many different comics with him in it but I'm not really sure which I'd say is my favorite for him? As far as characterization... I honestly really loved him in the original X-Factor series. The constant emotional angst he's going through... the guilt he feels for abandoning Maddie and Nathan, his hesitance to tell Jean about that relationship, his realization of the trauma he experienced at Charles' hand now that Charles is gone as far as he knows- I forget which issue that one is but the one where he goes to Alaska to try to find Maddie but she's gone and he hallucinates Charles being there. Also that one scene where Tabby and Skids walk in on him hallucinating Warren and asking him why he killed himself. God he really fucking went through it in this book didn't he? I need to finish that one because it was one of the first comics I read but I stopped at some point.

That issue and of course Jay Edidin's Marvel Snapshots issue have to be some of my favorites for him.

As far as favorite individual fact i love that he canonically has a traumatic brain injury. Even if we don't ever get canon autistic Scott, many of his behaviors and struggles can always be explained by that. I wish it was brought up more and specifically talked about how it's something that is a disability for him.

23 is Santo Vaccarro aka Rockslide!

Santo isn't one of my favorite Academy X kids, in fact of the main kids I'd probably rank him the lowest, but I do love him! My favorite run for him would be New X-Men by Kyle and Yost, they did a great job fleshing him out as a stable comedic character, but one who has a lot of heart- idk about an individual issue for him but I do have to mention New X-Men #42 in which his friendship with Anole begins.

Favorite fact would probably be that his dream was to become a wrestling champion, and he briefly got to live that dream in the Hellions mini. Good for him.

98 is Cain Marko aka Juggernaut!

Cain is one of those characters who I adore and wish I could get into them more, although I'm not really actually sure how many more appearances he's had than I've read, so maybe I have read enough to be into him truly? Idk. The Austen run ironically is the one that I've read that made me love him the most. You all should know at this point if a character has experienced child abuse i'm very very likely to become obsessed with them. (Gee, I wonder why that could be?) But his redemption in that book along with his relationship with Sammy were amazing.

Favorite fact is that he has a huge soft spot for his husband Black Tom Cassidy <3 They are adorable I need to read more for them.
