Thread: Persuasion appearance

  1. #1

    Default Persuasion appearance

    Persuasion has a cameo in the Marvel Holiday Special!

    http://www.marvel.com/digitalcomics/...SPECIAL.0000.1

    She is in San Fran with the mutants...Northstar is also there.

    If anyone knows how to update her wikipedia page, that would be awesome. I don't know how, lol.

    That's great that they make appearances, but I really don't get Marvel's idea that all of the Earth's mutants have to be in the States and they all have to be in one area...It's kind of absurd.

    Anyway...It was a nice little story.

    Which page is she on? She is not jumping out at me. Maybe it is my computer's issue with resolution but I don't see her?

    Same page as Northstar, just to the left. There's a girl with purple skin... Dunno if it's Persuasion or not... It's definitely Northstar, but I'm not convinced it's Kara shown there. I'm not 100% up to date on all the mutants in San Francisco, but it could be someone else. Hope I'm wrong.

    She's just under the arm of Dani Moonstar, wearing a scarf. Could be her.

    To be fair, there's probably mutants present for this story who normally aren't part of the San Francisco community, but have come along because they are visiting their friends for Christmas.

    Yeah, she could be there to visit Northstar... in San Francisco... Is that a stereotype?

    OTOH, that character's hair is black, and Purple Girl's is, well, purple. But she could've dyed. Of course, characters in the MU dye all the time, but they get better.

    Kara's hair has mostly been shown to be black since her first appearance.

    However...her original Handbook entry stated it to be purple.

    The Marvel website states it's black...

    Her father's hair is purple...And even Kara's has been shown to be sometimes looking purple, but it could just be black with purple highlights or she may have colored it.

    Yes, and so far, none of them paralyzed from the waist down, killed, or killed multiple times in the same month! It's a miracle!

    Two (JP and Kara) in the Holiday Special (can't call it a Christmas special, because that might offend one religion or another. Hey, isn't Thor back now? And Kenneth Brannagh will be directing the movie.)

    One in X-Men 505... What's the third?

    Third is X-Men: Infernus Guest-starring Witchfire.

    Thus officially ending the debate of whether Kira died at Neverland...
    it's nice to see that they all survived it.

    No point in speculating much about all the appearances, Kara and Northstar are just appearances while Box and Witchfire have actual roles, though neither story idea holds much promise as a lead-in to AF..... yet.
    Keep your stick on the ice.

    Live it.
