Maybe it exists and I just don't know, but why hasn't Marvel ever produced an actual Dazzler song? I'm sure they could find a production team and a vocalist to produce a Dazzler single. This would be some cool promo. I always read the lyrics when Dazzler is singing, but I want to hear the song. The flip side is, maybe the thought of what it might sound like is better than actually knowing and being disappointed.
Mutant and Proud!
Well, the character was originally conceived by a record label that wanted to release an album, comic and movie all at the same time. I have no idea why the album fell through, perhaps it was because disco's popularity was waning at the time? Would have been cool to see.
"The White Queen welcomes you, TO DIE!"
This is basically correct. Marvel reached out to a number of celebrities to ask if they'd be interested in participating and allowing them to use their likeness. The cameos we see are people who agreed to it. So its not necessarily that Marvel wasn't interested in having more celebrities of colour at the Gala--its a matter of who accepted the invite and gave Marvel permission.
lotta has-beens and D-listers that I'm surprised Emma allowed to attend.
Emma Frost, Rogue, Felicia Hardy, Helena Bertinelli, Allison Blaire, Barbara Gordon, Monica Rambeau, Carol Danvers, Illyana Rasputin, Ororo Munroe, Harleen Quinzel, Lorna Dane, Irene Adler, Kate Kane, Rachel Grey Summers, Jean Grey, Diana Prince, Barbara Ann Minerva, Donna Troy, Jennifer Walters, Gwen Stacy, Wanda Maximoff = PERFECTION!
So how long do you think it'll be till the reveal leaks?
I was very underwhelmed by this week's Hellfire Gala issues, Planet Sized X-Men was the best title and showed amazing feats of power by the many mutants showcased.
As for the X-Corp and New Mutants issues I felt that they were very, very ordinary and I certainly won't be picking them up.
I am a Marvel fan preferably cosmic storylines, especially Thanos or Dark Phoenix related, when both the Avengers and the X-Men are involved count me in, loved the original Uncanny Avengers series.
Not a fan of any of the new characters.

We now know why the HF Guests were so...disconcerted as they left the Gala. Ha!
PS:XM was a perfect issue for me. I'm still basking in its glow of beauty and brilliance.

I kind of loved this week. No one was surprised by PS but that's the nature of advanced solicitations and mass speculation. Still the art alone really elevated the book for me and I have no complaints about the writing.
NM was legitimately haunting with enough doses of fun to keep it balanced. The books ongoing plots progressed nicely as well.
X-Corp... well the first issue legitimately gave me a headache, so this is a step in the right direction!
Gosh Mr. Sinister is so annoying.
I was a delightfully surprised with PS, actually. Not with the premise of terraforming Mars (we all guessed that since the first cover tease) but the reason(s) for it and how it was accomplished...that was beauty-fully done.
NM was much better than I expected, despite the wasted panels featuring the ****-bag artist. I'm still completely invested in where Vita is going with this.
Lord Ewing *Praise His name! Uplift Him in song!* Your divine works will be remembered and glorified in worship for all eternity. Amen!
More than a tiny bit annoyed the human/mutant unity idea is more prevalent in an issue of Guardians where Rich and Magneto beat the **** out of each other than in most issues of the actual Gala
