So Dani's finally got a home! And it looks like she'll get to kick ass in the next issue, too. Too bad it's not coming out till the middle of the month.
I wish she wasn't still powerless, but maybe there's hope. It looks like Magneto has his powers back thanks to the High Evolutionary. It'd make sense for him to check on his former charges.
It'd be nice if she could get a decent love interest. The FBI guy is boring. I know some people have suggested Sam or 'Berto, but to me they're too much like her brothers. She and James Proudstar flirted a bit in the original series, but I've found him pretty boring since he became Warpath. I had a crazy idea a about her and Shatterstar, but he's taken now.
I'd like to see her with someone like Roarke from the ...in Death books. The only X-character I can think of that's close to him is Shinobi Shaw. I always thought that character had potential. He's caught in his father's shadow the way the New Mutants often seem caught in the X-Men's shadows. I could see him asking the X-men for protection from his father.

I wrote "Midnight Blue." It's part of an ongoing series of alternate-universe Avengers fanfics. Dani will be a constant presence from here on and eventually join the Avengers.

Uncanny X-Men #514 supposedly has some great Dani & Psylocke scenes! I myself haven't gotten it yet, but when I do I'll try and post some scans.

Yeah I went and bought it, slightly disappointed. Definetly a filler issue, here's hoping for Fraction's run to come to an abrupt end!

Given that quote on the wall, there's a real good chance she's going to "Hel".
NW#5 is supposed to deal with the after effects of Utopia, so even if Fraction blows it, maybe Wells can make it work.
And as if thinking she should be fixed up with Shinobi Shaw wasn't bad enough, now I think Dani and Daken would make an interesting couple. Good thing I don't like real life "bad boys".

Dani has sadly not had many appearances in other media but she did have a substantial role in an episode of X-Men Evolution, which you can find here:
Said ep mainly focuses on Kitty but Amara, Berto, and Sam have roles as well. It's too bad they had already dropped Rahne from the cast by the time this ep was aired. Every Dani fan should watch this at least once.
*note to mods this is a perfectly legal streaming video of the ep that was put up by Marvel*

Wow, that Dani-in-Vegas sequence seemed pretty sapphic to me. Did anyone else get that vibe?
Here I was hoping she'd make a more X-centric choice in mating material.
I kind of grudgingly liked the issue and the twists and turns in alliegences, though I think it's sloppy that they didn't return to Vegas for at least a bit of follow-up.

No not really. I think that's just the way they're depicting Hela lately.
A follow-up would have been nice, but I think they want Dani to make a bit of an entrance in part 6. Wouldn't do to show her costume and ride ahead of time.
