Hey, I loved that stupid Magik Goblin!
I've been playing Midnight Suns because it stars ~Majik~ and good lord they really went full MCU with the writing. Just endless quipping to a level where it...
The bangs own, hands off her bangs!
Magik is the leader of the Midnight Suns in the new mini: https://www.cbr.com/midnight-suns-roster-led-unexpected-x-man-magik-marvel/
Not sure if that means...
Love that they kept the midriff. Show off those abs Illyana <3
Magik front and center where she belongs! :o
S'ym doing alchemy (?) and looking at a beaker is really funny to me for some reason. Scientist S'ym confirmed IMO.
Impressive cell phone coverage in limbo. Did Magik build antennas or was Belasco before his time with technology?

That does make me curious, is there any art from a comic where he is actually drawn so that you can see his supposed fur (I guess it would have to be a closeup) and isn't just depicted as being...
The Labors of Magik('s fanbase waiting for her story to be released).

The only thing I see Claremont writing at this point would be a book set back during his old books like what the new Gambit series is doing. He has very little interest in modern continuity and I...
I am curious how exactly the rest of the New Mutants is going to stay relevant in this story, it looks incredibly Magik focused with some deep pulls from her backstory (not that I mind, I love her)....
New Mutant 28 cover by Leinil Francis Yu:

I love how Yu draws two women wearing the most absurd comic-booky costumes without making it look extremely sexual.
So I like the Bachalo design a lot and I realize that it has become iconic for her character, but I'm not a fan of how it has made "blacker than the blackest night!!" become the theme for Illyana.

Nice, finally they are turning Illyana into a weird imp. The character development we were waiting for?
The fact that they really have Fox X-men characters in the next Doctor Strange movie just makes me sad that Magik likely isn't prominent enough for Anya Taylor-Joy to get a cameo in the movie. She...
Eh, sometimes it can get a bit rough like during the Bendis run when there were 6 (?) blondes on the team and Bachalo drew their faces mostly the same.
The writing for Magik has been all over the place ever since AvX. I miss when she sat imprisoned in a cell on Utopia and just said ominous oneliners, at least her character was consistent back then....
I think that's just an artist oversight which wasn't caught by the editor, it happens sometimes. You can think whatever you want about Simonson but the dialogue is genuinely nonsensical when it...
I agree that it is really weird that they haven't done anything solo with Magik. I'm obviously biased but I don't think I'm just saying that as a fan of her, Marvel has been pushing her hard ever...
.
Yeah, my impression reading this was that there was some serious strawmanning by the writer of legitimate concerns some readers have with the Krakoa concept. And I'm saying that as person that's...
I'm fine with Krakoa but uh, I think you are being far too certain here. Things can change drastically in just a few years if leadership changes etc.
Yeah, what is happening on covers is almost always irrelevant beyond the character on it maybe being in the issue.
Anyway, Mike McKone variant for X-men 8:

What is Future Revolution like? Them adding Magik as one of their first 10 characters shows that the developers clearly have great taste in characters ( ;) ) but how playable is it if I don't want to...
It looks official but chances are that the intern running the account just likes whatever he sees posted about the comic and that it isn't some official canon judgement from Marvel.
But "Illyana...
