...significant dynamic of the relationship between the two women–and one that only adds to its queerness–is Ororo's first answer of the call to indulge her wilder, less restricted side.

Ororo's entertainment of this aspect of her identity is commonly associated with Yukio...

Most encounters with Ororo are met with awe, but Claremont's willingness to allow this awe to exist beyond the confines of heterosexual attraction is part of what shades the connection between M'Rinn and Ororo even when it's contextualized by maternal connection.

The second...

The nature of their relationships *is* shaded by M'Rinn's yearning for a daughter and Ororo's for her mother–but it is yearning nonetheless, and yearning further established by the male-coded C'Jime (her awesome sky-fox warship) speaking what his lady is unable to say.

...understated part of the character's history.

Ororo awakens in the care of the woman she rescued, an extradimensional warrior queen named M'Rinn, who from the moment she asks the meaning of Ororo's name (@uncannyxcerpts: beauty), seems an object of queer affection for Ororo.

In an almost saccharine moment, Jean admits that she's forgotten the most...

...back to X-Factor headquarters for an attempted escape-by-Artie in progress.

The most moppet of children, Artie is arrestingly adorable in Hank's oversized clothing, but it's sad to think about how a child so young knows he has to cover up and hide to head out into the world.

...know that he'd be around for the long haul (foresight always being the great enemy of the re-read), I'd have expected a heel turn toward "evil mutantdom" by issue's end as the boy finally encounters Frenzy.

With a ker-whap, Frenzy backhands Rusty across the block as we cut...

...and found it unnecessary to spell out Rusty's self-hatred in the plainest of terms.

Brooding around the Lower East Side (as one is wont to do on the Lower East Side) lands Rusty at the wrong end of a knife fight and his mugger at the wrong end of a fire fight.
