Armaan Babu: It’s the end of the world as we don’t know it. The Rani has swept in, and wasted little time in making and unmaking reality, ready to tear the world apart just to find whoever she’s looking for. It’s a hell of an episode, and the most I’ve enjoyed the series in a…

Do you think Dani Moonstar ever gets tired of being the sensible, level-headed New Mutant? Like, remember when she yelled at Professor Xavier about her belt? That was her first appearance, and it’s the only act of teenage rebellion of hers that I can immediately recall. Cyclops has rebelled more than her. And why is…
First, the silly bit: This preview contains a panel in which two shirtless men put a blanket on a fully clothed woman. Granted, that woman was attacked by an ice dragon in the previous issue, but still, there’s an irony there. Now that that’s out of the way, if you like the panel on the…
