Mr. Sinister can, and does, in Exceptional X-Men #9, written by Eve Ewing, drawn by Carmen Carnero, colored by Nolan Woodard and lettered by Travis Lanham. Now…
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…
