Lorna Dane: Polaris Appreciation 2018

[Havok83]

I love that Lorna is next to Angel, although that means nothing. I REALLY want them to interact

Not feeling that she's back in her old costume from the deciMation era. While her recent one was generic, it was something new for her.

The teen X-Men are as word from SDCC confirmed gone and this does confirm that.

[Soulsword323]

I'm fine with the costume, I just wish they would give her an updated look or something. I love what Molina did with it. The different shades of green, with the yellow really improved it.

I'm wondering if the people they are grouped with, will be the ones they work with? I'd love to see Lorna working alongside Angel, Northstar, Boom Boom, Sunspot, and Cannonball!

Not in the front row or center area is usually not a good sign.

Agreed, but my suspicion is the desire to want to bank in on live action will keep the target from her head. I don't think they have figured out what to do with the character post event come February.

[Soulsword323]

I'm concerned too. However, she is back there with a number of other X-Men. Plenty of other fan favorites like Cannonball, Angel, and Sunspot are around Lorna. So I'm hoping it doesn't mean too much.

I fear this just means she’s guaranteed to make a cameo unless any of these writers love her

^ This.

And yeah that costume is retrograde

On the plus side (depending on your views) she is not near Havok

... Lorna working alongside Angel, Northstar, Boom Boom, Sunspot, and Cannonball!

Kinda givin' me some NuX-Force feels.

How many Avengers bit the dust in No Surrender, and which ones were they? Or what about their Disassembled event, back in the day?

Rosenberg supposedly does, don't know 'bout the other two, tho.

Like Phoenix Resurrection, but I have hope that ideas that will continue percolating will bear fruit in time. Not near term hope though for a good new path forward in the comics for her though.

[Soulsword323]

I'm not expecting her to get a huge amount of focus. That being said, with it being a ten week event, I would hope that the writers wouldn't just focus on the usual suspects. Its too long for them to do so imo.

[AbnormallyNormal]

Maybe this is just blind optimism talking here

But looking at the pic again it is possible Lorna is in the back due to her flying ability

They tend to group fliers in the back for visual oomph like they're "zooming at the viewer"

Could just be they don't give much of a damn about the character though

Also impossible not to take in the ABSENCES of Wolverine, Cyclops, and Prof X

Very notable

Also no Magneto... sigh

Or Emma Frost....

Or Cuckoos I don't think

[Heroine Addict]

A couple of good, memorable moments, and her not dyin', and I'll be happy... enough. Keepin' eXpectations on the lower end of the spectrum.

[Heroine Addict]

Both Bobby & Warren are even further back than she is.

[jmc247]

In terms of her role like with The Twelve there will be some moments people remember if she has a connection to the main plot, if not then it is what it is and it will be more like her early 90s events.
