UNCANNY X-MEN #11
CULLEN BUNN (W) • GREG LAND (A/C)
NEW STORY ARC STARTS NOW!
• Someone is weaponizing mutants and turning them loose on the enemies of mutantkind…

…which happens to coincide with the X-Men’s discovery that MAGNETO
has not been altogether forthcoming about the means he’s been employing
to protect the mutant race.
• Eager to know exactly what Magneto’s
been up to, the X-Men investigate…starting with the all-new,
all-different HELLFIRE CLUB!
32 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99 

I’m really hoping this new Hellfire Club includes Lorna. I think some people out there would have a kneejerk reaction against it, but Lorna’s character and history both make her an excellent fit for the club if she’s included.

The most obvious evidence to point out is the Austen run, but there were bits before and after where Lorna was completely acting in her own free will and showed a bit of her dark and devious side. When she was part of X-Factor in the 90s, she changed to her gold and red costume both to fight her body image issues and to savor a sexy taboo angle. While out in space, she used cunning to position Crystal as “The People’s Princess.”

Lorna also most definitely has a thing for the BDSM aspects of the Hellfire Club. There’s the costume I mentioned before, but also the Magnetrix codename she briefly had – likely a play on dominatrix. She also didn’t mind Wolverine seeing her naked when her costume got shredded up during the Austen run.

This version of the Hellfire Club might not be what you’re expecting at all!


won’t reveal too much moire about Lorna’s involvement, but you’ll be
seeing her in the book. Probably not until the third arc or so. 

is third arc and maybe Lorna

I remember that, I just didn’t want to repeat it for various reasons. 😛 I hope it happens, but I also won’t assume it’s guaranteed or take it badly if she’s not included. I know plans could have changed since Bunn made those statements, and more importantly, I’ve come to expect Marvel/Disney corporate to get in Lorna’s way if they think she’s bad for whatever agenda they have going on that month.
