Tell me about it. I hope Sunspot comes back in an epic way.

I would be cool with Sprite. She's not your typical Asian girl character. She was playful and cute and her whole budding romance with Evan was sweet.
And it means Jia isn't dead.

I found it enjoyable but I think that may just be me obsessing over Rodriguez' art and paneling.
I recall the issue being that the group was stuck in the play of Aladdin, with all of the members taking roles of the cast. Nocturne, who played the role of Shahrazad, decided to take up her role as Caliph Doom's wife, to read him stories to restore order to the people as well as have some kind of stability in her life with her dealing with the loss of some of her friends.[/QUOTE]
I hated how dirty Ahmed did Nocturne in the series, bringing her back only to dump her off in some bumblefuck Aladdin reality that practically ensures that she’s off the table. What a waste of a great and original character.
I think he had to dump her in a hurry, since the next (two issue) arc would be the book's last. It was cancelled, partly due to sales, but also because Ahmed was assigned Ms. Marvel.

Roberto was picked up by Falcon. They have flown away together to look for an AU where editorial and writers remember their recent accomplishments, or at least that they exist.

I mean the only personality trait she had was being so studious that she stayed up all night to study. If that's not a one dimensional stereotype I don't know what is
She probably only existed so they could keep one of Kitty Pryde's former codenames active. She even explicitly named herself after the then-Jean Grey School headmistress.

Considering that they went back to 616 after that whole Aladdin thing, he could have easily had her jump off there once they returned. That would at least leave her available for a future writer. Hell she has friends and associates in 616 from her time there so it would’ve been perfect if not her original reality. Instead, he dumped her off in some reality that no one is ever gonna look back on so she’s as good as gone.

Actually Logan gave her the code name and I’m pretty sure by that point Storm was headmistress since after the O5 showed up Kitty stepped down to train them.
Lol took me awhile to realize that was a user name lol.

With the current state of the X-books, I fear that may be a monkey paw wish.

That was hardly her only thing. And she was up so late because she didn't need to sleep due to her mutation.

Dust, Sunspot, Mystique, Blink, and Amelia Voght. Hopefully they pop up somewhere.

I hope Mystique is dead. She can die off panel for all I care. Not only has she been put in some of the worst stories ever recently she has become super annoying. She's just an awful human being. I used to look forward to an appearance from her in the Claremont days and even the 90s. But that hasn't been for a while.
