Nightcrawler's parents are Mystique and a Demon and they're both alive... or they were both alive recently... there's a whole crazy thing going on in the X-men. like most of hte Batgirl's Barbara Gordon's parents are also alive. Ms. Marvel's parents. Beast's parents were both alive and never stated to have died... so Edna and Norton are probably still kicking around. Sue and Reed's kids... I thiiiink Madeline Pryor's alive right now, along with Cyclops, so, Cable. More classic Marvel Ultron and Wonder Man are around so Vision's parents are alive

Another one I think I am right on: both of Damian Wayne's parents are currently alive (unless Talia is currently dead for some reason).

Shadowcat's parents are alive, I think. And she has a good relationship with them still. How old is Kitty now? I know when I dropped Excalibur she was 21 or 22. Seem to remember a birthday issue where she went to a pub and got drunk. I dont read many superhero comics anymore. So can't think of recent examples. She was in her mid 20s until Joss Whedon reduced her to his teenage fantasy spank fodder and tossed out all her character development.

I was guessing they had here late 20s by now. Just glad I gave up on all the X stuff when I did. I think Flaming Carrot's parents are still alive. Tefe,the daughter of Swamp Thing and Abby Holland,has two living parents.

Azazel is alive and in Dark X-Men but umm, that whole crazy thing with the X-Men did some retconing to Nightcrawler this week. Is Barbara's parents alive? I thought they where dead and that Jim was her Uncle who adopted her.

That's generally been the main canon And yeah I was coming to mention what I said was accurate up to a week ago.

Iron Man? I thought they retconned his origin so that he was adopted by the Starks, and his real parents were some counter-culture types. I know his biological mom showed up during Dan Slott's run.

Yeah, Amanda Armstrong and Jude. both of them were Shield agents that fell in love... but Jude turned out to be a Hydra agent. It was a pretty unnecessary retcon...

I don't have the issues that introduce it but it does seem like a superfluous change. Maybe it was to set up the rivalry with Arno Stark, Tony's "brother"?

I thought they where dead and that Jim was her Uncle who adopted her. He was originally her uncle who adopted her as a teenager but they realized over time it was f***ing ridiculous for someone adopted by an uncle as a teenager to call him "Dad". So, they retconned that he was her biological father because he had an affair with her mother. they eventually decided even this was needlessly confusing and just changed it to Jim and his first wife being her parents. It was actually done a lot more recently than you'd think, though; even as recently as the early part of Scott Snyder's time writing Batman he was still her uncle who adopted her. Ms. Marvel is another superhero who still has both her parents.

Its one of those things that'll probably be quietly ignored going forward. Kinda like that weird bit where Marvel retconned Magneto out as Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch's father which was seemingly immediately ignored by everyone.

I mean that was entirely due to Perlmutters... we hate Mutants and Fantastic Four due to Fox owning the movie rights... despite us owning all the other rights...
