Woah, alright. Gowi made a reference to the X-men because Carol was fighting the Brotherhood of mutants. I don't think that shows a lack of insight. Saying that he would need to consider "playing the character himself" is frankly a little absurd when discussing the entire X-men team. I don't see how asking if the X-men exist causes such a ruckus, a simple "yes they are there" or a "no they haven't formed yet" would have sufficed.
