Ah, Whitewash Jones, a character from an age where racial sensitivity was associated with communism. Good thing we had Roger Stern set us straight in Young Allies rather than flush him down the memory hole.

There's also the bit in New Frontier where Cooke points out how racist it was to call Hal's old sidekick Tom Kalmaku "Pieface."

That actually explains a lot about why the people who can fly at super speeds/open magic portals to where they want to go even bother with the teleporter.

redbackground posted:Today, I learned something special about the JLA Watchtower transporter: I love this. Wonder Woman has suggestive dialogue/jokes about whether the male Justice Leaguers get aroused from going through the teleporter. Jade runs with the joke suggestion that they just stare at their crotches to try and judge, at which point Wonder Woman chides her FOR GOING TOO FAR! I guess she's Hippolyta's little Hypocrit.

Really all of them - it's the Trenchcoat Brigade except, for a reason that I guess is a better name-determined superpower riff, Morrison has substituted Doctor Thirteen for Doctor Occult (13 wears glasses but otherwise dresses the same)

Unless I'm mixing up issues where Kitty tells stories, that child was Illyana Rasputin. A lot of things happened since then.

Modern Magik is so different than old school Magik it's crazy but then again I guess what being lost in time in hell for a decade will do to you. Is Illyana actually a mutant and if so what would her powers be if she never went to Limbo.

You can tell that she's a mutant because after she was reverted back to little-child-age she died of the legacy virus I think.

I don't know man I didn't really read all of the return comics. But I think it's possible in some sense she didn't. The Illyana that came back was the soulless husk that was left after she sacrificed herself in Inferno so that her child-version could live, and was kind of extra-evil, but then it went on an adventure to find the appropriate soul and get it back, so it all kind of worked out? Except I'm pretty sure before Inferno Illyana only had 3/5ths of her soul left, so I don't know if she now has all of it. This fraction was a result of losing two bloodstones or something from the pentagram because of demonic stuff, not a slavery allusion.
