[Frontier]

Is the headband removable or is it a piece of the full bodysuit? It kind of stands out, although I guess people would probably...just write it off as a giant headband. Does Jean have a thing about her forehead? .

Magik about to be "oh, I kind of screwed up leaving Maddie in charge, huh?"

Nobody doubt Goblin Queens' mad piano skills.

[Huntsman Spider]

Jesus christ, the Chasm stuff and Paul stuff is still stupid as hell.

Everything else looks good though.

Pretty much, yeah.

Anyone else want to see Maddie and Ben just fuck up Manhattan? They both deserve a W and frankly NYC has it coming for voting in Mayor Fisk.

That's not going to help matters much for them in the long run, but on a visceral "f*** you all" level . . .

[Uncanny X-Man]

Lmao at the big piano computer thing

It reminds me of when Maddie was in charge of the X-Men's (and formerly the Reavers) mega-computer in Australia... right before she unleashed an Inferno in New York.

Ominous Pipe Organ - TV Tropes

Goes w/the whole, *gothic* atmosphere I imagine they're aiming for.

Does anyone else think this was gonna be a Halloween event but then got delayed to Christmas? Especially with the Hallows Eve stuff

Yes, the HfG was originally supposed to be an X-mas event, so it traX.

They showed it in the trailer for the comic and it's bonkers: he takes visor up, pulls up the mask (which is an old school 05 type mask with the two eyeholes) and puts the visor on over the mask.

I believe that’s the computer from the Reaver’s base.

I never thought I was going to play the role of being the devil's advocate for this, but to be fair especially Chasm and Paul make more sense than what has happened with mutants lately, that also includes in upcoming big Mr. Sinister's Sins event where it just seems like that event was created just to show off and reiterate how stupidly narcissistic self-centered Mr. Sinister is .

[Malachi]

Well the art is nice, mostly. The rest…. for someone like me who value character as priority 1 then this will hurt. Like Wells on Spider-Man has so far. I will just avoid this and read spoilers to see how much of a mess we are left with after it ends.

It's [inspired by/ a new version of] Taki's spell computer from 1988's X-Terminators and the original Inferno, I suspect. It was hard to find scans online, I had to make these myself, from #3.

This page made me absolutely love Taki. I haven't seen it exceeded yet. Ewing, you've got some work yet to do!

[BroHomo]

is this the same 'reformed' Madelyne left in charge of Limbo??

[Matt Rat]

Maddie is just so...Rita Repulsa in this

[ETMike1988]

Can Maddie bring back Stevil to life or can she use him/his soul as her undead supersoldier!?
Stevil was a clone, kinda, sorta...

[ETMike1988]

is this the same 'reformed' Madelyne left in charge of Limbo??

Me: Yeah, completely utterly ridiculously reformed! Am I right, Magik!? Am I r...
* Magik turned me into a frog*
Me: Ribbit... ribbit...

[Exodus]

maybe it is one of those circular stories that Madelyne will AGAIN be reformed at the end of this event and Marvel descided to give this storyline a little more focus than one scene in a New Mutants comicbook barely anybody has read...fair enough, I guess.

But it really feels like the authors have forgotten already their own continuity established 3 or 4 months ago.......I'm personally here for evil Goblin Queen Madelyne. I think the X-Men really lack cool villains these days (and no, Moira does not count).
