...but in any case, Shaw dismisses the suggestion; there are other mutants to raise in their image.

Returning home, Angelica joins her father for the first time since her earlier rejection, and the man promises to make the effort to love his daughter for who she is: Firestar.

...of Emma's plot. The fatal flaw of nearly all of the Inner Circle members–from Mastermind's loss during the Dark Phoenix Saga to Emma's comeuppance now–is that their arrogance and entitlement prevents them seeing their own defeats on the horizon.

Firestar continues that...

The pieces are all in place for Firestar's final transition, and Shaw and Emma's plot to take Selene off the board ready to go.

But, you'll have to wait until Firestar to see what happens next...

...her plans for Firestar's development into her assassin. But, in her blissful ignorance and naïvety, Angelica is happy to travel nonetheless.

Emma's Hallucinator (trademark revoked) further assists her in conditioning, fomenting Angelica's fear and hatred of the X-Men.

...on the Firestar limited series and have grown to really, really enjoy it.

For me, I think my problems with the first issue of the series stemmed from the feeling that it was disinterested in the continuity built within the X-Universe.

Characterizations felt off, Angelica...

Angelica Jones AKA Miss Angelica Jinx AKA Firestar. Created for a successful cartoon in the ‘80s and should be a mainstay X-Man but was only actually part of the team once and only makes an appearance like once every five years. Cancer survivor. Hero. Heatwave. https://t.co/euWqtAdPH0

...his less openly hateful subordinates, orders the mutants murdered on site. Empath explodes Kurt's simmering anger (at himself, at violence, at hatred) into a berserker rage all his own.

Firestar tries to take on Piotr and Rogue, and while she succeeds in beating the former...

It is long before Charles' rumination is at least answered for us: Angelica is *not* doing too hot.

With use of the Hallucinator (trademark weirdly still pending), Emma and Shaw's vision for Firestar comes to light.

Using visions of wicked versions of the X-Men, the two plan...

...ongoing cartoonish villainy–but I have to be honest in admitting that it's might be because the modern iteration of the character means so much to me.

While her methods are obviously crueler in Firestar Vol. 1, it does feel like we get a glimpse of Emma Frost, teacher...

...caring arms–the closing scene where she expertly manipulates the girl using her telepathy the only material Emma needed–none of the happenstance middle school cruelty required.

To be clear, I *love* Firestar's character, but goddamn does this miniseries do her and Emma...

...that DeFalco's understanding of teenage identity borders on parody.

Over in New Mutants–another book centered on "teen drama", the emotional depths of adolescence are often well captured and scripted– but Firestar strictly goes through the insincere motions of teen sitcom.

...the Firestar limited series read to me like 24-odd pages of emotional torture porn, with Angelica's suffering too contrived (and cruel, frankly) to actually be impactful.

It would be one thing if the book knew not to take itself seriously, but my impression so far is that...

One of these days we'll get to read another issue of the Uncanny X-Men–but until then, it's you, me, and Firestar
