From the macro point of view, Polaris is defined only by telling Magneto what a bad man he is, and attacking him! She is the last X-person who should be trying to take down Magneto, as their powers don't work on one another. The writers can't think of a thing to do with Lorna except "attack Magneto."
Since Magneto seems helpless in this Age of X-Man, it would be really ridiculous to continue any focus on Lorna solely because of a "conflict" with Magneto. There should be no conflict. They're all caught in some kind of mental universe, they're all in the sh*t together. Lorna should be her father's ally. Better still, why don't they tell the story of "Prisoner X" without defining Lorna only by her "conflict" with her father.
This is so lame. I can't tell you how lame this is. So many of us spent 20+ years protesting the stupid dialogue and interactions between Magneto and Wanda and Pietro.
So all of a sudden, after an attempt by Bunn to work on the father and daughter relationship of Max Eisenhardt and his daughter Lorna in X-MEN BLUE, we're back to Polaris taking the Wanda and Pietro role. "You're a bad, bad man, Magneto. I will fight you and fight you because that's all I'm good for in the X-Men comic books."
