Magik Appreciation

[Andru]

Of all the suffering heaped on Magik by the demonic forces of evil, none can match the injustice of interrupting lesbionic beach frolicking time with Kitty.

Now only if they had their own series where they could take their revenge. One can dream ...

Already taken care of. Magik destroyed Belasco (with help from Pixie). She unleashed Legion to destroy Limbo's Elder Gods and in the process reclaiming pieces of her soul (and Pixie's). There's Dormammu and Witchfire (Belasco's daughter) as well but we don't know what became of them, although I wouldn't be surprised if they are still alive.

The sword didn't really kill Molly though. It just rendered her off-conscious.

So do we know if the old thread is archived nowhere, vaporized forever into the ether, or is/will it be available at some point, in some form, sometime, somewhere?

I found the various CBR Forums to be as important to my Appreciation of Marvel as my comic collection itself, and thought of the hundreds of pages in the Magik thread in particular as a precious long-box of a title I once owned, but now fear lost.

"You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone" and all that...

This link leads to the old thread!

I was surprised about the forum rising from the ashes, but I am excited that this thread is already moving!

So here's the old Magik thread:

I have a question: is there a possibility of the old Magik thread ceasing to exist?

After 14 days it's supposed to disappear forever. So I'm transplanting some of my old fics from there to here so they don't disappear.

“ORIGINS OF A DEMON” Part 2: “PRELUDE TO THE BLOODSTONE WAR”
The Prelude to the Bloodstone War begins this month. Elsa Bloodstone has uncovered a link in Illyana’s heritage that descends from her ancestor Rasputin all the way to Mephisto, the master of Hell himself. Now her birthright and family legacy as a Bloodstone, slayer of demons, comes in direct conflict with her childhood friendship to the new ruler of Limbo. But fate rules over all. Elsa enlists the help of family friend and “bad boy” mystical warrior Peter Hunter aka Albion the Green Knight, to find a way to Limbo and destroy hell’s very bloodline for the sake of all humanity as was prophesized in an ancient text handed down by her father as the Bloodstone War. Meanwhile the manipulative Mephisto continues to play his own games and has chosen Gudrun Tyburn his apprentice and instructed him in the means of making his own Bloodstones in hopes of overthrowing the new ruler as Illyana continues to find her place in Limbo and balance her white and black magic to somehow restore Limbo to the white and return to the life she once knew.

It's the long awaited battle between friends! Though Elsa Bloodstone has succeeded in killing Nicolai Rasputin in the past, Illyana remains unaffected as she was outside the time stream in Limbo.

But this is not the first time Illyana and Elsa have fought. Elsa holds the answers to how Illyana knows so much magic, how she ended up in Limbo, where ten years of her life mysteriously disappeared to, and what horrible deeds Illyana has committed but cannot remember. While the battle heats up in the past, Gudrun Tyburn seizes the opportunity to take control of Limbo and has dark plans for Gloriana and her friend.

Illyana's newfound control of the stepping disks brings her and Elsa back to Limbo, but it is already too late? Gudrun Tyburn has formed two more bloodstones from the souls of the captive teenagers. Now a part of them is irrevocably turned to evil and Tyburn's powers have become too great for our heroines to overcome. Elsa knows of a weapon from the prophecies of her family, a weapon she fears as much as she fears the power of the bloodstones, a weapon even Mephisto will come to fear and one only Illyana with her unusual application of magic can forge. Can Elsa trust Illyana enough to tell her about the prophecy of the Soulsword?

There were a few more, but I think they only existed as PMs, so they're gone.

I must have missed the part where the bikini clad Magik & Kitty took out the demons who interrupted their "Girl's Day out at the Beach"
