New Mutants, current volume

[fajrdrako]

Over lunchtime, among other comics, I read the recent New Mutants #1.

Maybe I'm just feeling sentimental because of my head cold, but it chocked me up twice.

I think it's a great idea to show the New Mutants (and Xavier's school) from the point of view of a new student who has never even heard of them. And to have Danielle Moonstar show up was perfect; I think I have a crush on Dani as much as on Sam Guthrie. I'm thinking of the original New Mutants here, where those two were my favourites - but there were many wonderful characters in that comic. I wonder if I dare hope for the return of Sam.

Dani had a great line, where a nasty bully is threatening the young girl, and she tells him he'd better stop. He says something like: "Oh, yeah? And what's *your* power?"

Dani just says: "I scare people."

Oooh.

What, really?? Sam as he ought to be? I can hardly wait!

I don't know *what* they were thinking for a while there.
