Someone in the X-Men office really liked that arc from Avengers Academy where Peter was a guest teacher, huh?

Why, yes, I do like Kirby games.
Speaking of cancer, does anyone have the panels from 'The Death of Captain Marvel' where Reed Richards and some other guys cure cancer, and then they're all like 'why didn't we do this sooner'?

I thought it was an ongoing in that it's like a team-up book so a few issues down the line it will be "someone else and the X-Men"

Nope, it's just about how Spider-Man is trying to find out which of the X-Kids is a traitor working for a bunch of Super Villains. Also comedy happens too.

Isn't there a Superman panel somewhere where Lex Luthor is in jail and pretty much goes "Yeah I can't really plot Superman's downfall very well from in here, and I got bored, so I cured cancer."

I think there's also a scene somewhere (maybe one of the animated films) in which one of Luthor's labs discovers the cure for cancer (while Superman is in the Fortress of Solitude trying and failing to do the same thing), and he immediately orders them to work out how to turn it into a series of lifetime treatments to maximise its profitability.

This just reminds me of the sad/hilarious scene from Teen Titans where Speedy asks the group to see if Luthor has a cure for HIV/AIDS.

And then people will turn it into a "Lone Gunman" moment when the first 'cure' for cancer is exactly that. Rogaine for tumors.

You're probably thinking of the All-Star Superman cartoon where Lex successfully kills Superman but has an earth-shattering epiphany at the moment of triumph that turns him good. Although I may be confusing that for "Lex finds a way for Lois to have Superman's baby."

It's in Superman: Doomsday, near the beginning. Your basic incredibly hamfisted demonstration of how good Superman is in comparison to Luthor's (figurative) mustache-twirling malevolence.

This is just making me imagine of Luthor with a Snidely Whiplash mustache and holy poo poo I want that to be real right now.

Of course cancer is cured in the MU but only regular cancer. Not the kind that is caused by Negative Zone radiation or by demons.

Kind of. Or just in a normal plastic bag or something. The effort put into designing and labeling that box of poo poo swings it away from 'Helpful' into 'fetlife'.
