I’m not enjoying the lack of Illyana in this promotional illustration. @the-daily-illyana mentioned that Tom Brevoort dislikes Magik, so I’m hoping this isn’t a bad sign. Beautiful artwork, though.

I read the bit that people dug up where Brevoort talked about what he’d do with the X-Men. And yeah, he singled out Illyana as the character he couldn’t stand. Doesn’t exactly inspire hope.

Though I will say that 1) that was from ages ago, 2) I think maybe he was even talking about old X-Men and 80s Illyana, no idea how he feels about her current incarnation, and 3) I’m not always Brevoort’s biggest fan, but I think he’s an editor who gives his creators room to do their own thing and use characters they have a passion for, in which case all we need is a writer/artist/both who really really loves Illyana.

(I’m available.)

in your opinion, would illyana love or hate boney m's rasputin?

folansstuff:

the war raged by the rasputin siblings about whether or not that song is good has lasted for decades, and will last for centuries more

(illyana makes the demons of limbo listen to it on loop as a reminder for who rules the place)

Also, it’s definitely the ringtone on her phone.

(Not by choice, but Kate keeps hacking her phone–or rather, first-try guessing her password–and changing it.)
