2012: Thirty Years of New Mutants

Next year will mark thirty years since the first appearance of the 3rd generation of X-Men, a.k.a. the New Mutants or "Muties." Thirty. The big 3-0. This year is to the NMs what 1991 was to the FF, or 1992 to Spider-Man. LOL To fans who were kids buying the first New Mutants comics, that's a difficult thing to mentally sort out! By now they should all have been X-Men, right? But whatever, it's 2011 now and I'm looking for fun ways to mark the event. Suggestions are welcome.

Long Silence / Free-for-All 2010

Sorry for the lack of posts. I'm sure cool things are happening with Rahne on Peter David's book; I wouldn't know though, it's been a hefty dose of reality around here this year. Death, cancer, and more death. And it ain't over yet.

Meantime, please send any fan art submissions for the Wolfsbane FanArt Free-For-All 2010! The theme is holidays or anti-holidays (any). If you have a painting or sketch or doodle or whatever that is Rahne-related and not rated "R," please send 'em to: rahnefan@comcast.net

My plan is to edit the slideshow (on your right) to reflect fan art!

X-Factor #210 (October)

Wolfsbane returns to the team traumatized by her time with X-Force only to be slapped in the face by ex-boyfriend Rictor’s new relationship with Shatterstar. Can Rictor repair the damage and ease her mind? And what exactly is the nature of the child growing inside her? Meanwhile, with the rest of the team in Las Vegas, Monet is visited by a war veteran with a terrifying secret...

Happy Rahne

From Emilio way over Spain comes this jazzy fanart of Rahne and friends:


Thanks Emilio!

Speculation Time

The news that Wolfsbane is returning to Peter David's X-Factor is welcome to say the least. The question now is, how to write a mutant that is pregnant? What do you think will happen after the dust clears between her and Ric and (whatever Shatterstar's real name is)? How has Marvel written pregnant characters in the past? Will it carry on for about 3 years? 9 real-time months? What do you think?
