Kurt’s ability to humiliate Arcade and “get the girl” legitimates his Errol Flynn-inspired masculine fantasies. More generally, it legitimates his theatrical approach to life; in the gamified reality of Murderworld, Kurt’s heroic performance is satisfying and successful.

From the balcony, Kurt spies an abduction by the villain Arcade. He busts into Arcade’s Murderworld, where he has an adventure perfectly suited to his skills and fantasies; it features guiltless violence and revolves around saving a beautiful (albeit decidedly modern) princess.

Operating for nearly 5 years, the website combines archival information, issue summaries/reviews, a podcast, essays, interviews, opinion pieces, and even an X-Men issue ranking system (with Claremont stories occupying 5 of the top 10, including 1 & 2, just FYI). 2/3

In all of this stumbling, Havok parallels Dazzler, and with her helps to signal the devastation of the team at the time. In many ways, this increases the dramatic tension, by reducing the capability of the team and thus increasing their sense of overall vulnerability. 8/8

Then, while trailing Magneto, Havok continues to bumble, endangering himself and others. He nearly falls to his death in the sewers before accidentally blasting (and potentially killing) both Rogue and Dazzler. 4/8

He takes her child as well. “He should be raised by his own kind. See how happy he looks.” Then he tears away Maddy’s face, piece by piece, and gives them to Jean, foreshadowing the clone relationship and the sense that the world can't sustain both of them. 9/11

We then transition to their state of bliss, enhanced with the arrival of baby Nathan. Then the enigmatic Gateway arrives (in both reality and in Madelyne’s dream). She screams at him to leave her perfect family alone. 5/11

The opening is a reminder of the sacrifices that Madelyne has continually made for Scott, for his life, and of the implied obligation of loyalty that should accompany that, thus presenting us with a sense of her betrayal. 4/11
