X-MEN: THE WEDDING SPECIAL #1

WEDDING EXTRAVAGANZA! Mystique and Destiny are one of the most beloved — and longest running — gay couples in history. Somewhere in their 100+ years together, the pair married, but we’ve never seen the event on the page. This year MARVEL’S VOICES: PRIDE makes history with Marvel’s first woman-to-woman wedding in a story by superstar X-Men scribe Kieron Gillen! And with a couple as complex as these two, you know there’s a lot more to the story. We promise party crashing! Villainy! Romance! In the classic tradition of FANTASTIC FOUR ANNUAL #3 and X-MEN #30, this anthology will be a must-read for every comics fan. Featuring the Marvel debuts of award-winning writers Yoon Ha Lee (Ninefox Gambit, Machineries of Empire) and M. Louis (Agents of the Realm), and much more talent to be announced!

X-Men: The Wedding Special #1 - "Get Mystique… A Gift!" (2024)

written by Tate Brombal art by Emilio Pilliu & Irma Kniivila

[heckcareoxytwit]

Laura Kinney and her friends are going to the Dazzler concert when the former (Laura) sees someone familiar. It's Local, the mutant technopath minion of Mojo. Local wants Laura/"Scratch" to follow him (though he doesn't know that "Scratch" is actually Laura Kinney doing her undercover work) into the room while her friends must stay outside and mind their own business. As Laura's friends insist on following them, Local (under Mojo's control) is working on another scheme - Local using his technopath abilities to insert subliminal frequencies in all of the Dazzler concert recordings. Laura Kinney, Kamala Khan and Prodigy follow Local to the recording room while Anole and Sophie Cuckoo stay behind to watch over the concert for any sign of danger.

Laura, Kamala and Prodigy find Local in the recording room where they try talking him out from disrupting the concert. However, Mojo has taken in full control of Local that he zaps Laura while the tentacles snare Kamala and Prodigy. Meanwhile at the concert, Sophie and Anole are trying to tell the concertgoers not to look at Mojo on the screen but it doesn't work as the crowd are too hypnotized to listen to them. Everyone seems to be doomed until a mysterious girl arrives to save the day with her time manipulation powers. Laura Kinney looks up and recognizes the girl as Kiden Nixon, the old friend from a run-down neighborhood at New York City. Seriously, there are way many freaking superpowered people in New York! Anyway, Laura cries in tears of joy as she hugs Kiden in a reunion. Then, Laura and Kiden depart the place, leaving Prodigy and Kamala confused. Also, Local had fled the scene. In the end, the Dazzler Show eventually goes on as well as Anole, Kamala, Sophie and Prodigy watch the concert.

Personal thoughts:

I gotta say, I'm still feeling incredibly ambivalent about this book.

I mean, a Mystique/Destiny wedding is great! Ya love to see it and its long overdue, but I think this would've been better served as a one-shot alongside the main pride story this rather, rather than in place of it.

Most of these stories sound really fun, like for example: a Rogue/Gambit side story involving a wedding band mishap! That sounds hilarious!

But, for a Pride-centric issue, its really lacking in the Pride department. No one outside of the x-books this year, and even the x-couples are lacking!

I mean, to name a few: Northstar and Kyle, Rictor and Shatterstar, Iceman and whoever he's dating right now (lol), Cerebella and Escapade, Akihiro and Aurora (he's still bi, straight-passing relationship or not), the list goes on!

I don't know, I'm just frustrated. The stories themselves seem fine, its just the branding/packaging that's rubbing me the wrong way, if that makes sense.

Except the Wolverine story. We literally have a confirmed/canon queer member of the snikt fam (who, at bare minimum, has had a flirtation with Mystique as well), and he's still ded :(

Like, if they wanted a Wolverine-centric story, why not have Gabby finally explore her sapphic feelings for that girl on the bus? Let her have a little heart-to-heart with Akihiro, drag Logan to a Pride parade (then, he accidently gets roped into a side quest involving a group of short trans-mascs, ending with Logan buying them a round of beers). My point is, there are ways to add your money-maker character into stories while still respecting your target audience.

I don't know. My feelings are complicated.
