Yeah, I had pretty much the same reaction.

Hell, I knew he'd show up eventually. Magneto can't be dead for very long, but they can't just bring him back after such a cool death. So we're stuck with the "We've got Magneto at home" version.

Joseph? Oh please tell me even Sinister isn't big enough a jerk to bring back Astra.

[iamrman]

You know he is!

The Astra I recall was fun!

The mutant who left the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants before they hit the big time, and as she was a cosmic scale teleporter, decided to go live in space and go on a shopping spree for alien tech for a few years before coming back to create Jospeh, just to mess with Magneto because she held a grudge and he was annoying.

I think she's the one who, when her Jospeh scheme didn't work, dramatically bemoaned "This took MONTHS of planning... well, weeks... okay a day and a half" or something like that.

Or did she have a later, less fun, appearance?

[cainofdreaming]

One man's fun is another's totally insufferable.

Eh, I dunno. I just found her ditzy. Going around without much agenda beyond wanting to mess with Magneto, with really dubious plans. Actually, that whole era around Magneto: War fell pretty flat for me.

I unironically loved Joseph "Himbo" Magneto growing up. I am glad he is back.

[iamrman]

It seems like he's sticking around.

[crabby_lioness]

Magnets tend to do that.

[apachefirecat]

AKA Magneto ordered from Wish

It's "UNCLE Joseph" Wanda. Anyway, she seems to have done a 180 on how she feels about Magneto at some point.

[icon_uk]

She reconciled with Magneto a couple of years back at one of the Hellfire Gala's IIRC.

[scorntx]

And then she got murdered.

Starting to think the X-Men should maybe stop throwing parties.

[cainofdreaming]

At least they got a mutant heaven out of that one. I doubt this year will land in the net positive column.
