More Inferno weirdness.

At least it’s not a fridge.

Yeah the "Let's pretend we're dead" schtick might have worked a little better if it didn't mean that they basically abandoned the New Mutants to whoever chose to attack the mansion first.

Good thing nothing bad or traumatic happened to any of the New Mutants whilst they were playing dead, isn't it? ISN'T IT!!!!

It's almost as if the X-Men can only care about one plucky kid at a time.

Didn't the whole faking their death thing also have a major part in Maddie going all Goblyn as well?

Can't imagine where the X-Men got the idea this was a good decision fro-... Ah.

Yeah, Maddie went with them to Austalia, got close to Havok, and then got seduced by a demon in Limbo because she was basically bored... not by Havok.... (Well, probably not by Havok, after all who am I to judge?)

I have a long held theory about how the "Maddie goes evil" subplot was always supposed to kickstarted by Sinister, but then got hijacked by the need to have a tie in to Inferno (Because God forbid a New Mutant like Illyana should be the focus of a crossover event), so Claremont invented Nastir'h to give them an "in" to the whole thing.
