[edit] Not all male

Despite the claims of the first paragraph, NOT all of Mystique's Brotherhood of Evil Mutants were male. Rogue, who first appeared in Avengers Annual #10, their daughter, was female. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.91.38.200 (talk) 02:14, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Other Irene Adlers

Irene Adler is also the name of the antagonist of the Sherlock Holmes story "A Scandal in Bohemia." Does anyone know if there's a connection? Sgt.widget 06:20, 22 March 2007 (UTC)Sgt.Widget

[edit] Destiny's Death

Someone had asked in what issue showed her death. I don't recall the issue number, but I think it had something to do with Freedom Force going to Muir Island to liberate it from the Reavers? Would have been early 90s, circa #255...? In reality, the Shadow King was taking over the Island, and I think he just wanted more and more people to turn into slaves. Destiny reminded Mystique that her death was inevitable, and was killed shortly thereafter. 204.153.84.10 19:13, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, yes, I was mostly right. From this page [1]:

"During this stint her team was sent to Muir Island and were confronted by the Reavers, who killed her teammates Stonewall. During the battle she charged Forge with the duty of protecting Destiny. Forge managed to protect her until she convinced him that Mystique needed more help. After Forge left to help Mystique, Destiny was slain by a mind controlled Legion. After the battle with the Reavers Mystique discovered Destiny dead and swore vengeance on Forge for her death." 204.153.84.10 19:16, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Man, I'm good! It was exactly #255, which came out in 1989. See List of dead comic book characters#Marvel Comics

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Destiny1.jpg

Image:Destiny1.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Bisexual?

Is there any compelling source stating that Destiny is bisexual? Her only lover in the comics, as far as I know, is Mystique. Twin Bird (talk) 03:06, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
