I think a lot of people don't realize that Doug has body language power since Chris's days.
I believe this is New Mutants #53 in the Hellfire Club.
It's just that it was first used in a battle during Zeb Wells run.
Nobody has issue with Doug reading body language.
But Character has vague power, and i will make it as esoteric as possible to make em powerful just reads like "I'M SO SMRT. Look how big my brain is as an author." and it's just lame.
Nah...Roulette is too mean for Doug. He wants someone nice, like Tarot:
This scene always saddens me, as Doug would die soon afterwards, and Tarot would not have long to live either. Doug made her cry by calling her a 'Hellion tramp'. You should just have danced with her, Doug, you tosser!
I always wanted to see how the relationship between Magma and the other Hellions was, after she joined them. (Besides Empath)
But we never got to see it.
Forget "Who is the BEYONDER?"
WHO IS the RED-HEAD New Mutant next to Dazzler supposed to be on the cover of SECRET WARS II #1
Not Rachel who appears elsewhere on the cover...
Not Rahne because her Wolf is there...
Surely they would have drawn Amara in Molten form...
Karma with no power signature? She was still obese (and evil) during the period IIRC.

It's supposed to be Illyana but her head being in line with Sam's power signature caused a coloring error.. Amara wasn't there for this fight. This was the issue where the Beyonder turned her into the Darkchild and she freaked and transported Kitty, Dazzler, Rahel, and Sam to Limbo. At this point Magma and Roberto were still with the Gladiators and Karma wasn't revealed to be alive yet.

And then even crappier writer killed off the Hellions...
I don't think any writer after Claremont has been interested about the Hellions? Pretty much none of the threads he left were picked up. It would be nice to have some of them get together with Old New Mutants and reminisce bad old times.
I'd definitely read a Hellions comics featuring Warpath, Magma (or Firestar), Jetstream, Catseye, Tarot and Roulette.
I don't know much about Beef and Bevatron. Don't even know where they appeared and what kind of people they were before getting killed by Fitzroy.
Bringing back the old, killing the young: that's the Marvel way
