He's BACK baby!!

Preview for two X-titles at Newsarama here, including New Mutant #9 (Which we've seen unlettered pages for before). (The other preview is Nation X, and it's PAD penned, so is a no-no here)

Just in case though - Spoilers under the cut

Doug and Warlock are being checked out post Necrosha and it would appear that Doug has managed to recover completely from being A) dead and B) a Necroshan zombie thing.

Doug is fine, but Warlock is operating at low power and will take a long time to regenerate since he appears to have switched to a vegan diet... or the T-O equivalent thereof.

Danger is fascinated by Warlock, but as Doug quickly notices....



Doug appears to have aged whilst he was dead since he was only about 16 then and seems older here. He's a cute li'l dickens just the same though.

This might be a stupid question, but Dani's a Valkyrie again, right? So why do the recap/introduction pages keep referring to her as just "De-Powered" like that's there is to her?

[icon_uk]

Probably because she's a depowered mutant, her Valkyrie powers are independent of those.

[neuhallidae]

So frikkin' what? Just say she's a Valkyrie, then. It's not that hard and less insulting.

[icon_uk]

Because exactly what her Valkyrie powers are, and how long they may last, is still up for debate AFAIK, so it might get a little complicated to summarise.

But "insulting"? She's a non-mutant in a team called "The New Mutants" so it seems fair to me. At least they're acknowledging that she WAS a mutant.

[neuhallidae]

The fact that she was de-powered stuck in her craw hugely because of the way the team's treatment towards her, especially Sam's, changed. Hell, the fact that she was treated as useless and helpless and someone who needed to be out of the way and protected was part of the reason she was so gung-ho about being a Valkyrie again. The fact that the recap only acknowledges her as "the de-powered one" is insulting specifically because of that.
