Most notably known for her role in “Inferno” (1989), Madelyne Pryor – the Goblin Queen – was first introduced in Uncanny X-Men #168 as a pilot that greatly resembled Jean Grey. She and Scott start dating and, soon, they marry and have a son, Nathan Christopher Charles Summers – aka Cable.
Below you’ll find a brief history of Maddie, or skip ahead to the reading order to experience it all for the first time yourself! [Read more…] about Madelyne Pryor (Goblin Queen) Reading Order!
WARNING: Spoilers abound!
Given everything that had been teased about X Lives and X Deaths of Wolverine, I expected the first issue to open with Logan traveling back in time to some relatively predictable venue—Canada, Madripoor, or Japan, as Mr. Percy directed us to look back to Logan’s opening narration at the start of his Wolverine #1. What a pleasant surprise, then, to find the best there is at what he does doing something wholly unexpected and very good, all things considered, for the fate of mutantkind: rescuing a newly born Charles Xavier and simultaneously slicing baby Chuck’s umbilical cord…! With a bone claw?! While the midwife is possessed by Omega Red and terrorizing the lucky new parents?!?
Well, this is Xavier Mansion in Westchester, and Logan in Wolverine #1 did mention New York as one of his main haunts—just not so far back in time. [Read more…] about X Lives of Wolverine #1: Logan’s Many Lives—X, VI, & VII (Plus: Those Darn Russkies)

These issues actually take place before X-Men #8, since Magik here has just returned from Shi’ar space along with the other OG New Mutants and the King Egg—before the Krakoans knew what they’d stolen!
“Really,” they must’ve come back before X-Force #4 since Doug’s there, unspeaking, at the Quiet Council. This era’s continuity has been very confusing to keep track of! See my provisional DOX continuity order below, after the article.
