    She just needs to remember.

    But it she had no goals or ambition she might as well be dead
    I agree, Selene loves eating peoplefor fun. That is the goal, hedonism, pleasure for the sake of pleasure for her own sake. She's lonely and no longer cares about how that affects her. She accepts the worst parts of herself and wants those aspects to thrive. I don't feel like her characterization has been all over the place at all. She craves power and wants to be at the top of any society making the rules. Helping x Corp was a stepping stone for her. He nature is to torture, abuse and harm. She's consistently done that for decades. Shaw has always been this selfish.

    I'm pretty sure the straighties would love her to ben in 3D. Talk about pandering.

    a note about Selene and Ms. Sinister. They are not anywhere near the same no matter how extra either is about their sexuality. Selene is a "devourer". She's an immense appetite wrapped in mutant human form. Whereas Sinister is a demented, seething, fop. It's hard for Marvel to create characters wjp wear all black without them becoming some kind of sexualized vampire person, But Selene's NOT just the Black Queen. She's the daughter of the Moon, first. Tyrant of Nova Roma, second, Black Queen waaaaaay lower on the list. i just see her as someone who see the world and it's contents as being served on a silver platter in front of her. All of it. Everything. It's a Mantra: "Everything for Selene" that she tries to impress on her subordinates. It's wildly Euro-Centric, and that's what Selene espouses as her central old world failure. Everything I engage with is for my consumption.
    Yep Monica looks and sounds the part in my mind but I agree O don't see her having the avting chops.

    Selene's motivations have not changed since her first appearance she wants to become a true god, craves endless pleasure, seeks an immortal companion to spend the centuries with, and fears growing old and weak.
    There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
    There is no fear, there is power.
    I am the heart of the Force.
    I am the revealing fire of light.
    I am the mystery of darkness.
    In balance with chaos and harmony,
    Immortal in the Force.

    Selene is a goddess and it would be an honor to be eaten by her

    Actually, Selene's a Psychic Vampire, not a Goddess...

    i want Selene and Shadow King to have like the wildest romance Marvel has ever allowed two Psychic Vampires to have, together. Selene loves the institution of marriage, it amuses her. but it's binding if it's with a powerful enough mate like Shadow King or Senator Gallio.

    I would also, obviously, consider Catherine Zeta Jones for Selene.

    Wouldn't Amahl Farouk need a body to get it on with Selene?

    If he wants to get her body, he can possess her. That way, they can be with each other all the time.

    Well, Bitch you could stay home or whatever Cave you came out of. If, you don't want to be on Krakoa, girl leave. Nobody forced you to be apart of this.

    I can't stand Ungrateful people. Can someone shoot her again please.

    Anyway, interesting Preview. I wonder What Shaw has in store for Charles.
    Maybe Logan should have let Rachel have her all those years ago.

    That was Logan’s most hypocritical moment ever. All the low level henchmen he’s just butchered and suddenly it’s too much to whack somebody really awful who can’t help but be a killer.

    It wasn't about Selene, it was about Rachel.

    Logan feared another Dark Phoenix incident. Claremont clarified this later at some point, even though it was pretty clear from the issue itself too.
