Leah William and David Baldeón on X-Factor 2020

I don't think that Alex has anything to do with how Lorna is portrayed in those images, and I'm guessing that in the book that he's in that since Alex is not leading that book that he won't have a great role and be the fall guy when it all hits the fan...

I was being ironic.

Oh, I thought they were joking and trolling. Are you telling me they were serious?

I was joking/trolling. The one JasmineW is referring to is the user I was referencing with that comment lol.

Which character do you think they will allow to resurrect as a different gender? I’m thinking Polaris, adding a whole level to some daddy issues...

Haven’t we seen a green Magneto before named North?

And wasn’t it just stated that Polaris is the true North Star?

It's not that I'm against the different gender thing, it's that I am worried it wouldn't be handled well. Plus, if something like that did happen, couldn't they just kill them and then bring them back in the right body?

Am I the only one obsessed with Lorna’s new costume? I just love a good long jacket, mini skirt and thigh high boot combo. The midriff section is a bonus.

Lorna and Rachel are best friends and are going to work greatly together.

im the same, its so good, i LOVE long sleeves

[JB]

Wolverine is short though

Ahhhh! I just howled!

[CRaymond]

Ever since the Leonard Samson therapy issue, I’ve wanted an artist to put Lorna in a costume that’s a bit more forgiving and modest. If a bitch wants to eat the whole ass candy dish, let her. She shouldn’t be held back by a midriff.

Is this some revelation I missed our just a question you have? Personally I think Leah would have her work cut out for her (in addition to Hickman) to explain why an existing character would come back as a different gender. Unless your talking about Cloud, I don't see it happening. I don't believe that any of the existing mutants (I could be wrong) have insinuated that they are misgendered on panel. To do so I feel would be a huge mistake and really open some awful backlash in terms of trans representation and comments like "so anyone can just change their gender for funsies now on Krakoa?" It's a big risk, one that I don't think they want to wander into after Rosenberg's handling of the transphobic mirrored death of Rahne.

A new one, sure you could have a really compelling story that as the team investigates and Rachel delves into the the deceased psyche and energies that she discovers this mutant was trans and wished to be in the correct body. She conveys this with her niece Hope and they make it happen. It would be a truly touching moment, but there would need to be commentary that this is not the normal in society or how people transition.

North was a chimera that was part Lorna and part Frost.

And yes, LW has said Lorna is the true "north star" of the series, but I don't see how that would make anyone think Lorna is becoming male. See above for the problems that creates.

If Lorna was to become male, can Rachel get her new outfit with some spikes and a bomber jacket lol

Ha, that's funny, but so true.

Meanwhile, David Haller has got to wince every time he finds a hair on the pillow, because he knows that towering hair's not long for this world...

I'll give a gimme I guess.

If they were to make Lorna male, I would find it very interesting to see how differently Marvel treats her as a man compared to how they've treated her as a woman. Would they continue to have the same problems? Would changing her to male make how they've treated her to date suddenly feel "wrong" to them, thus leading to their treating Lorna differently?

Because until they treat Lorna better as she already is, you can't go either direction without raising some real questions. Either Lorna continues to be treated poorly, meaning Marvel's issue is with grasping and respecting the character in any sense, or she's treated better, raising questions of if the whole reason she's been treated poorly for so long has to do with having been a female character instead of a male character.

All said and done, though, I don't see Marvel changing Lorna to male. For many reasons I'll not be saying publicly. Doesn't mean it can't happen, just means I don't see it happening.

Oooo is that Lorna and Jean or Lorna and Rachel? Either way, escándalo!

[From The Shadows]

I dunno... Daken seems miscast in this book. Wouldn't he be a better fit in Hellions? Art is good.

Is he a good tracker? I'm assuming he would be and Leah said the team needed a “fucky thot enforcer". She cracks me up.

It depends. He's more reliable than Mystique.
