on my way out the door...

From eldritchhobbit, SFX's 10 most crucial British scifi novels.

Also, courtesy of eye_of_a_cat, Total Sci-fi's 25 women who shook science fiction. An interesting selection, and not necessarily the ones I would have chosen. (Rose Tyler? I haven't seen the original Doctor Who, but shouldn't Ace be on there?) Actually sod it, read eye's post for an analysis instead, as my brother has just reminded me that I need to be out the door in ten minutes!

That's a pretty good list, though I grumble about the Storm inclusion being perfunctory and probably by someone who doesn't know anything about the franchise. Or maybe they honestly DO think Storm was served well by the X-movies, in which case I boggle and would at least like to have a reason.

ETA: Seriously, I'd go with Mystique if I was going to pick somebody from those movies. . .

I wondered if they were going on comics!Storm and simply slotting in Halle Berry into their mental storylines. Which would make for a lot more awesome!Storm, but a lot less sense given their other criteria. *shrug*
