Marvel's new LGBTQ+ character, set to debut in Marvel Voices: Pride, is revealed to be a mutant who apparently had an "extraordinary impact on an x-man long ago"

I like the cape, but hate the costume. It sounds like he died but will be resurrected on Krakoa, not sure how I feel about that. I can't really see him appearing in any current x-books moving forward.

I think I remember Orlando saying he liked the idea of writing a story about Graymalkin for a lot of reasons that sound like he is going to explore with this character instead.

FINALLY A NEW MUTANT!

He looks gorgeous. Cannot wait.

He's LGBTQ+? Hope he's trans*.

We know Orlando is doing a Daken story, if I remember correctly. Maybe those stories are one and the same and Daken is the mutant Somnus has history with?

Given the previous tease, maybe he's the reason Magneto ends up on Trial.

They look really official I like it I just hope they don't make them super overpowered to the point that they are unwrite able

Steve Orlando seems to enjoying playing in the X-sandbox between this, the Man-Thing issue thatbjust came out, and his tie-ins to Heroes Reborn. Since the X-Office seems to have no qualms about adding books can we get him on one?

Wait a second is this the kid that was somehow connected to Civil War the 1st one or something like that?

Not sure who you're referring to, but I highly doubt it. Somnus is brand new and has supposedly been dead for a long time.

Magneto committing a hate crime? No thank you.

Finally? When did Marvel stop creating new mutants?

[Gray Lensman]

How long will it take this thread to reach 100 pages of anger over a new character showing up when there are still any pre-existing characters who aren't regular cast members somewhere yet?

While there have been new Mutants, there was definitely a long time when someone like this would not have been a Mutant, but instead would've been .... something else.

Al Ewing mentioned an “old solider” returning to the fight in SWORD soon (which I took to be a hint that it’s the adult Cable replacing the kid version) as well as a new character making their debut. I wonder if this could be the latter. Then again, I guess it wouldn’t technically be a “debut” since this character has already debuted in Marvel Voices.
