Madelyne Pryor: Goblin Queen Appreciation 2020

[Ferro]

man that made me cry, but a narrative that has you care about her, doesnt shy away from the injustice of her life and has someone care about her, is A MUCH better start, because this isnt over!!!

[Will Evans]

How do you think the voting went for the twelve members of the council?

Exactly this.

How do you think the voting went for the twelve members of the council?

Mr Sinister and perhaps Shaw: Yes, the rest No

[Andru]

Mr Sinister and perhaps Shaw: Yes, the rest No

I would think Sinister would be a firm NO.

[nandes]

Yeah I agree, I don't think this is the end of Maddie's story yet.

[andreikes]

Die with a shot? Not even to be a more dramatic and epic death. I hope this is not the end of it ...

[Glio]

How do you think the voting went for the twelve members of the council?

Jean: NO
Storm: Abstention
Nightcrawler: Yes
Shaw: Abstention
Xavier: No
Magneto: No
Apocalypse: Big no (he hates clones, like Stryfe)
Sinister: No (he is scared of Maddie)
Exodus: No
Mystique: Abstention
Emma: Maybe yes (For the Cuckoos. But she hates Maddie so...)

[Havok83]

She was a clone of Jean so the decision made sense. The pre-HOX era was about getting rid of dupes bc they dont fit the concept of Krakoa and the Resurrection Protocols that were teased/established in HOX. For people that keep bringing up the Cuckoos, they were always a special case

[rhaenylis]

Tbh, the behavior of the Council is not surprising. They've been shown to be assholes since HoX #6. I hope this time around that the characters in the story take notice and bring down this shoddy government / court

Or maybe one of the Cuckoos will die and Havok will say to Emma "Why resurrect her ? It's just a clone, you know"

[Havok83]

I hate the Quiet Council, I hate all those anti Madelyne Pryor who dominate the X-Office since the creation of the character

spoilers:

Let's resuscitate the deceased Cuckoos but forbid Maddie Pryor to come back to life. They are all clones but let's pretend that Maddie must not be resurrected because she is Jean's clone. I also hate the author because what's the point of bringing Maddie back if it's to kill her after only four issues ????

end of spoilers

Madelyne wasnt just a clone of Jean Grey. She was originally brought to life with a portion of Jean's soul. In a roundabout way she was Jean. Upon her death, the portion of Jean's soul that gave her life was given back to Jean by the PF along with her memories as the two merged into one person. The human Maddie that existed in the 80s is a part of Jean. The two stopped existing as seperate characters with Inferno and have since been one being

The Maddie that was in Hellions was not the original Maddie. She was the psychic ghost that X-man created when he was reaching out for Jean and she was eventually given a magically tweaked body by Spiral to look like Jean. She's a demonic magical twisted perversion of Jean so I totally understand why the Council decision was made

[Glio]

Technically the Cuckoos are not Emma's clones, they are her daughters (they used eggs and they are not the same as her when she was her age).

What is certain is that they are clones of each other, but that is an intrinsic part of their modern-minded mutation. So ... it's complicated.

I understand both positions here. The Council does not want to open the door to clones, much less Maddie, who has been about to summon demons to destroy them. On the other hand, it is obvious that Maddie has evolved to be a different person from Jean. It's tragic.

[rhaenylis]

What is also very tragic is that if Sinister voted against Maddie's resurrection, he will never have stopped destroying her life, and she will never have permanently escaped his control

[Omega Alpha]

Jean: NO
Storm: Abstention
Nightcrawler: Yes
Shaw: Abstention
Xavier: No
Magneto: No
Apocalypse: Big no (he hates clones, like Stryfe)
Sinister: No (he is scared of Maddie)
Exodus: No
Mystique: Abstention
Emma: Maybe yes (For the Cuckoos. But she hates Maddie so...)

I think Storm would have voted yes, and perhaps Jean too. There's no way Emma would, though.

[Will Evans]

Jean: NO
Storm: Abstention
Nightcrawler: Yes
Shaw: Abstention
Xavier: No
Magneto: No
Apocalypse: Big no (he hates clones, like Stryfe)
Sinister: No (he is scared of Maddie)
Exodus: No
Mystique: Abstention
Emma: Maybe yes (For the Cuckoos. But she hates Maddie so...)

Why would Storm and Mystique abstain
