    Claremont makes a lot of female friendships kinda bi, but I'd argue Rachel and Betsy have common challenges and growth: the Mojoverse manipulations, assuming the mantle of family members, a history...

    Agreed. Kate always abandons Rachel. She ditched Rachel when Piotr came back into the picture and asked Betsy to distract Rachel. Kate also left Rachel and the Jean Grey school without an...
  3. I like the lit hair, but I'm hoping they bring...

    I like the lit hair, but I'm hoping they bring back the telepathic hound marks she had in X-Factor. I immediately can identify her as Rachel with hound marks.
  4. 100% agree. I prefer the witchbreed look. The...

    100% agree. I prefer the witchbreed look. The pauldron was a call back to the 80s without going full on shoulder pads. The breastplate was business up front and the half skirt was party in the back....
  5. So terrific that we're seeing the beginnings of...

    So terrific that we're seeing the beginnings of the Askani ways, the training that Cable and others adopted. I always wondered how Rachel taught telepathy and telekinesis to others...
  6. After the Master Mold was reprogrammed in...

    After the Master Mold was reprogrammed in earth-811, there isn't much left for Rachel to guard. Ahab followed and recaptured Rachel years later, but he's dead now. Not sure Betsy and Rachel are...

    The White Hot Room (home of the Phoenix) is in the center of neutron galaxy that's within the city that's inside the M'Kraan Crystal on one of the first planets created in the Universe. The WHR is a...

    I was commenting on the implications of that FF issue Micabe shared, and the impact to Rachel's origins, less about Jean. I have the same sentiments about revisionist histories. I can get into the...
  9. I'm genuinely still confused about the mythos. I...

    I'm genuinely still confused about the mythos. I appreciate your efforts to help though. The running joke that Rachel is fixated on her mother or family is a consequence of Rachel being outside of...
  10. I know Rachel hears the song of the Phoenix and...

    I know Rachel hears the song of the Phoenix and recognizes that as her mom, whether it's a version of Jean/phoenix in another universe, a flame bird in space or in a sword. Not sure if what you're...
  11. I agree with this, but that means in the 811...

    I agree with this, but that means in the 811 universe, there's still a cocooned Jean in Jamaica Bay waiting for rescue? Thought experiment: there might be many universes that have this Jean...
  12. Thanks for sharing. I never read that issue. It's...

    Thanks for sharing. I never read that issue. It's the first time 616 Jean ever 'met' Rachel (or at least her essence). Neat. I got to read what made Jean pass out now. There are many issues with the...

    Ahhh, cool. I thought this could be Rachel's mom, but then there's so many questions how... 137267
  14. Has Rachel encountered her birth mother again and...

    Has Rachel encountered her birth mother again and had a touching moment? The Jean/Phoenix that has memories of giving birth and raising her.
  15. Very nice! Rachel has a lot of Phoenix-like...

    Very nice! Rachel has a lot of Phoenix-like imagery now, with the hair and flame hands, drawing on Phoenix energy without being an avatar is a nice workaround. I wonder if she can mentally or...
  16. This is so terrific. And having Rachel go from...

    This is so terrific. And having Rachel go from the best tracker to someone keeping track is so on point and that Cyclops-like eye? I look at Rachel's character drivers as 3 'A's, autonomy, atonement...
  17. Really sad that X-Factor ended before a...

    Really sad that X-Factor ended before a Rachel-centric story happened.

    Even though it wasn't that good, Secret Wars II seemed like the first time Rachel was prominent in the X-Men and the Marvel...
  18. Rachel fans are so used to no representation,...

    Rachel fans are so used to no representation, we're always hopeful this new event or any inclusion will be the fix we experienced when Rachel was a POV character. But being a C-list character makes...
  19. Great recap of Rachel's path as Askani. I always...

    Great recap of Rachel's path as Askani. I always knew she was destined to have a significant role in comics, and I love where this is going. She's not the typical chosen one archetype like Jean and...
  20. Ah, thanks for clarifying. Rachel usually takes...

    Ah, thanks for clarifying. Rachel usually takes the role of telepathic switchboard or anti-gaslighting truth-teller. I'm a big fan of Rachel being a heavy hitter with TK.

    What's a "VOG" role? Is it an acronym?


    That's how she was first introduced and it didn't stick in other media. Especially with all these Days of Future Past revisions...she's being robbed.

    Well said. Sorry to hear about your mom Askani's Flame. My father-in-law recently passed away after a long decline from Aphasia. It's awful to experience but it's amazing when people with so many...

    Haha, now I have that stuck in my head.

    Perhaps non-heterosexuality just isn't stigmatized in modern Krakoa, for mutants who have faced persecution and found self acceptance in many ways. Or it...

    Agreed, different stories. Sounds like the Phoenix LS had Rachel physically going into different timelines, past and future. Good to see her time powers being used. When I saw this unpublished art by...

    I was reading something about the Phoenix LS in old Marvel Age previews... Not sure if you can post links to other sites here... there's a site that documents this. From what I've seen of Leonardi's...
