Madelyne Pryor the Goblin Queen Appreciation Thread 2021

That depends. What's the first thing you see when you look at the image? And what catches your eye every time you look at the image? If your answer is "the cape", then the answer is no.

Now all I can think about is how the cape is the wrong color .

Anyways, she's coming back in New Mutants#24 right? Do we know if she'll become a regular or semi regular there, or in Hellions or in some other comic?

No other news yet - they will be launching new series after Wolvie crossover

Yeah but I like the character and I don't particularly see her as a villain, I fear other writers noticed the bump Hellions got out of featuring her and will bring her in to freshen up their villain of the month rotation, especially since most of the good X-villains are on the good guys side for the time being.

Being that all popular X-Men villains end up as heroes, her being villain of the month might actually lead to redemption…..

I mean if even Apocalypse and Selene become heroes.

She's returning at the end of Hellions which hasn't been slated for a 2022 reboot...if at all...then will feature in Vita's New Mutants going forward.
Anxiously and happily awaiting the resurgence of villain Madelyne in all her GQ glory.

I've said it before...I LOVE they're not shying away from the iconic and classic GQ costume.
Eff the haterz!!!

Ah man, Hellions ending would suck, that comic is pretty fun lol.

But thanks for the info you two.

Honestly, while I can find some fanservice heavy costumes to be silly, I like it when they're made like this, with the character wearing the costume with style.

When it just shows off tits and asses but the costume itself is just boring, then it's just boring porn bait lol.

I have no problem with the costume, but would love to see her temporarily get another costume that is recognizable for cosplay purposes. Not confident enough to go full Goblyn Queen.

I liked this outfit it's such a superior vibe

Yeah I liked this outfit too & the fur collar Red Queen outfit.

Though I think both need to have her iconic red gem brooch

[Havok83]

that look is good but seems too basic for the current Krakoa era and the over the top dramatic Maddie that we got. I think she'd work well with an updated version of her Mutant X look

also great outfit but still needs the red gem brooch somewhere ��

And lest we forget...she wanted to sacrifice her own son to open a portal to Limbo so that there'll be literally Hell on Earth. If that isn't classic villainy...

Personally, I want and love her to be the X-Men's Next Big Bad. Peacock Man and Orchis are boring trash. And she needs to spectacularly obliterate Sinister at some point.

It's time for the Reign of the Goblin Queen.

The peacocks will peck you to pieces for saying that and dispose of the remains in dirt.

Why on Earth would Jean need to be redeemed? Scott and the rest of the O5 kept secret his marriage and child, and when Jean finally found out about Madelyne and Nathan, she rebuked him for leaving his family and refused to be with him. Jean also pushed him on more than one occasion to reach out and return to Madelyne and Nathan. Not to mention, she surrendered her soul to Mephisto to save Scott's wife and child - an act even the ruler of "Hell" was impressed by. It was only after Madelyne was believed dead that Jean gradually warmed up to Scott again, and even after they started seeing each other once more, she turned down his marriage proposal.

During the climax of Inferno, Jean, who had just found out she had been cloned and had her memories shared with said clone, did nothing but empathize with and try to help Madelyne, who, by that point, had tried killing her and her demon-morphed parents. I really wish people would stop conflating Scott's behavior with Jean's. She did nothing wrong and was always the voice of reason in this sordid triangle into which she was thrust.

On another note, I hope they have something better in store for Madelyne than returning as a thong-wearing demon sorceress hellbent on destroying everyone again. I don't know how those who are true fans of her as she was initially created and introduced by Claremont can take the perpetual dragging over through the mud of this character.

Now she will force you to wear the thong. Seriously but I can just see Madeline trying to seduce Scott through bodying Jean and making her act and dress as sleazily as her to spice up their you know what. Perhaps Scott will slap Jean silly to snap her out of it.

[Devaishwarya]

Yes. Her Mutant X look was a HAWTNESS, too.
