Damn... Gay sinister is COLD

[cainofdreaming]

Well, he got some shivers too when Nanny confronted him later in the issue.

Mr Sinister: If you can't hear Flintheart Glomgold saying his lines, you're writing him wrong.

[superboyprime]

It hasn’t been four weeks since this issue came out.

[chalicother]

So Gabby and X-23 can't be brought back ?

[silverhammerman]

I suppose that since Laura is a "gender-swapped" variant clone of Wolverine she gets around the rule, and Gabby's different claws could be taken as a suggestion that she's similarly a variant on Laura rather than a straight clone.

Really though, I think we're supposed to read the Quiet Council as being obtuse in their refusal to bring back Madelyne Pryor and that they're making up and applying a set of rules to her which no one else has been subject to.

[cainofdreaming]

Her and Sinister.

Probably. I guess I was hoping for a better reason then that to tell Alex at first.

Maybe that they don't see her accepting Kraoka.

You would think Teen-Cable would give a fit...

Didn't it turn out that Laura had been a mix of Logan and the scientist who created her?

[akodo_rokku]

I believe the scientist wasn't part of her DNA, but carried her to term.

[deh_tommy]

So really that’s less cloning and more artificial insemination. Not sure where that leaves Gabby, though.

[zachbeacon]

Considering we currently have a complete set of Stepford Cuckoos*, I think it goes without saying that this ruling is the kind of petty BS we've come to expect from mutant leadership.

*AKA Emma Frost clones.

Very disappointed in Scott here. If anyone knows that clones are people too its the Summers family (and Spider-Man). Then again these are the same people that treat Madrox as expendable even though the dupes have unique personalities.

Seriously, I am 100% team Mystique. Burn it to the ground.

Laura has been confirmed since the relaunch of the X-titles to be Wolverine's daugther, not a really a clone. Which really was the only option that made sense given her origin and appearance. I was frankly relieved I wasn't the only one who thought so and that the writers made the move officially.

[bruinsfan]

Personally I'd be okay with that, considering that her previous do-it-yourselves resurrections haven't undone the deals with demons that turned her into the Goblin Queen.

[jlbarnett]

the fact that Maddie's powers never manifested on her own makes her a variant of Jean

[gnarll]

So... Jean Greys powerset without the inhibitions. Phoenix power. Demonic upgrades. Sorceress Supreme. Alien virus level up.

And to take her down takes... a gun.

I really got nothing good to say about this. The series started out promising for me, but its a hard no after this.

[donnblake]

If I've learned anything from Supernatural, it's that Phenomenal Cosmic Power is no match for Angsty-Man Vengeance.

[onsokumaru]

I feel bad for Madelyne who keeps getting the short end of the stick, but there is already too much Summers drama (and way too many Summers people) in the X-books. So I'm glad the Havok/Maddie thing was cut short and "Hellions" can keep telling stories about an odd team of underexposed characters.

[gallifreytraveller]

I only have one thing to say - just like Age of X-Man, what a disappointment. They obviously hate both characters. And a sane Madelyne would have proven problematic as hell. You can't have X-Men with Scott as a good guy and Madelyne in the same story.
