The thing of characters losing limbs was indeed great, because it recall of the event and it great new directions to the stories.

The real problem, except for the number of casualties, is the duration of their death.

We all know that characters are going to die, but not for that long. To be fair, Nightcrawler's death had last 3 years; That's way more than other characters, especially of his importance. But I still feel like it isn't long enough. (still better than Daken)

Concerning Toad's finger, I've just recall that he have a healing factor.
