Mystique and Daken set the ick factor to high.

Greetings True Believers!

Here are scans from Daken: Dark Wolverine #2. It's part of the "Wolverine Goes to Hell" storyline.

I can actually see Daken/Mystique and that's what makes it creepy.

Daken is working with the dude who sent Wolvie to hell. Said dude wants him to kill Mystique. But Daken has other plans. Daken travels to Miami and founds Raven in his hotel room, fresh from the shower. She says she needs his help. Daken tells her that he's supposed to kill her but decided not to. They decide to celebrate over drinks.

I like how they remembered that Mystique is usually naked. Oh, it is Miami so it's natural that Daken dresses like a Miami Vice extra.

Daken scoots over to Raven.

I don't think Daken's pheromone powers work on Mystique and that may be one of the reasons he's enjoying himself. Of course, they're most likely just screwing with each other since they're both psychopaths.

Hell-Wolverine shows up and starts to Snikt Raven but Daken intervenes and gets flash-fried. The cover for the next issue shows Mystique defending him.

	I am waiting for the day the X-Men finally, really, kill her to make the problem just go away. (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 6 comments) (Show 6 comments)

	Hey now! If people in comics just did what makes sense, then all the Flashes would be working as messengers, and THEN who would save us from the Rogues and Criseses? Hm? (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

They already did, didn't they? Cyclops ordered Wolverine to hunt her down and he did. Snikted her and everything. Didn't stop her from making future appearances.

Can't take much more direct approach to killing someone than that. Just find it odd that they aren't trying to finish the job now that she's resurfaced.

	Yeah, and that was even lampshaded later, in the issue about Wolverine running himself ragged. A single panel of X-Men vs. Mystique, with Cyke asking, "Didn't you kill her?" (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Well, now Cyke probably doesn't want to directly do a kill order, what with X-Force being an out secret within the Mutant community. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	He didn't actually confirm the kill though, he just left her in the middle of the desert. You'd think Wolverine would be genre savvy by now. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)
