Annie The Nymphomaniac Nurse broke up with Havok at the end of Chuck Austen's run on X-Men, and left the mansion with her son shortly after doing so. She hasn't been seen since, and unless Austen makes a dramatic return to the X-Books, she'll never be seen again.

Havok has gotten back together with Polaris. Apparently, being a real bitch for punishment, she has forgiven him his past indescretions, which are legion, and has even forgiven him for abandoning her to Malice.

So Lorna is back with her master, taking it like a good little doggie.

Meanwhile, we should form a pool as to when he starts cheating on her again.

N*urse Ann*e died off-panel as she walked under a floating bus which dropped innocently on her head and smashed her tiny brain to pieces.
Only Northstar shed a single tear but this was then found out to be a piece of wood in his eye.

Havok has gotten back together with Polaris. Apparently, being a real bitch for punishment, she has forgiven him his past indescretions, which are legion, and has even forgiven him for abandoning her to Malice.

And has also apparently decided to let him trying to kill her slide, as well. Because he was just pretending to be bad.

Even in his own thoughts.

When nobody else was around.

I have no problem with nurse annie and let me tell you why. I like the idea of having humans there. I've always defended coexistance and in my point of view, segregation and ghettoification are negative. rarely do we see humans at the school and even more rarely can we see humans as part of the team. that's why i think the mutants that belong to the avengers aren't as feared/hated as the x-men: they work alongside, diminishing the impact of prejudice. remember: it was captain america who vouched for them and that means a lot for the americans of marvel-earth (at THAT time, at least).

nurse annie was an interesting addition when she started because it was a rare moment of this coexistance, but seen from inside the mutant world. annie was a minority within a minority. the different one right there in the center of the mutants' world. she's the fearful stevie-hunter.

as an idea, annie was not bad. she had an issue with mutants, yet had to live with them. AND her son was a mutant. AND there was no idea of who the father was.

I buy the idea that someone would change their life around because of love. this has been a meister-narrative since literature became literature.

so, what went so wrong with annie? the development of the plots and austen's haunting shades of misogyny which pervaded all of his issues.

execution, baby, execution.

see, i don't think all of austen's ideas were terrible per se. i don't think it's farfetched to think that mutants with similar powers could band together as an identification strategy. a community of flyers or of telepaths, lupines and wormies, etc. sounds plausible. the slant he gave, however, was awful...and it was all screwed up.

despite the trainwreck that was the Draco (really, . , everything there was wrong!!!!!), the idea that angels and devils could be myths inspired by those type of mutations is a fun twist which resounds primitive toteism.

and, coming back to annie, the whole carter-controlling idea is not bad, just pedestrian. after all, we've all seen loads of mind-control-obligatory-subplot-claremont in addition to all the kids as master controllers/manipulators of reality.

the final diagnoses are:

a. nurse annie is not so detestable as an idea. the whole soap-opera which it all became is all austen's fault. I'd love to see a decent writer such as PAD writing her in X-factor. first, he'd dismiss all of austen's run in two or three panels, then he'd make her whole story be reduced to one funny/mean recurrant joke or one-liner. at the same time, he'd really turn her into a viable character.
b. the same goes to all the (few) good ideas that austen destroyed while actually materializing them.

(htf did he ever get to exploding communion wafers = the rapture .. a female pope? WTF%$#¨%&#$!!!!!)

Nurse Annie gets a bad wrap. If you saved a hunky looking coma patient and your evil son had brain powers and made you fall in love with said coma patient how do you think you'd handle things.

It's all evil Carter's fault.

..has even forgiven him for abandoning her to Malice.

Easily forgiven, as there wasn't much he could do about the situation. To harm Malice would've meant killing Lorna, which Alex was unwilling to do. Malice taunted the entire "outback" crew many times about how they were essentially powerless to stop her unless they wanted to kill Lorna. Of all of them, only Psylocke could even stifle Malice's presence enough to talk to Lorna, and she didn't get many shots.

Right after Lorna was freed from Malice by Zaladane, Alex went through the Siege Perilous, and Lorna was abducted by the Shadow King...

His desperation over the situation eventually led to him being manipulated by Madelyne, which..well...it seemed more than a little wierd at the time.

Later on, he attempted to sacrifice himself rather than let Malice kill Lorna (Sinister wanted her to take over Lorna again, Malice didn't want to, ultimately Sinister killed Malice..).

You've got no idea...and not just this storyline but all of Austens run stinks. He added exploding communion wafers with his silly church of Humanity. Gave Nightcrawler a retarded origin that I hope is retconned someday, oversexed up the issues for example, Angel and Husk flew up in the air and had sex infront of all the X-Men and even Husks family....yea thats just some of the stupidity and silliness that was Chuck Austens run. It so bad at times its funny and makes the X-Men look like a bad sitcom where continuity is so full of plot holes and ridicilous situations...Hopefully Nurse Annie is sucked in the proverbial limbo, her and her son Carter and they are never brought back by anyone. Atleast they killed off one of Austens more ridicilous creations...Mammomax...

See, I don't think ALL of Austen's run was bad. Yes, there sure were some crappy, crappy, crappy stories, but there were a few highlights in his run. I liked that issue with Northstar at the beginning of his run- and simply using Northstar on an X-Man team was great for me. And I liked the use of Juggernaut too, making him a more human character. The Northstar/Juggernaut banter was always humorous in my opinion. And Austen also is responsible for bringing back Havok and Polaris to the X-Men. When was the last time they were actually X-Men? Too long ago. Sure, I absoultely HATED his characterization of Havok, but I was glad to have him back. And as for Polaris, I actually enjoyed the Magneto/mental breakdown storyline, even if it was really over the top.

The thing with Austen was, I really enjoyed the team he used (Husk and Jubilee were great additions too), so I can give him some credit in that respect. His execution of the stories however, not so much.





.................And Nurse Annnie SUCKS.

gave us weird Werewolves
turned every female character into a ninpho
killed Skin
wrote his name wrong in his frickin' grave
ruined Nightcrawler's origin
made Jubilee completely useless, since she was just standing there
made Iceman an homophobic jerk
created the blind Gambit subplot

I'm currently reading Austen's Uncanny run backwards, making it join up with Casey's run when I go buy comics at the store. I'm only halfway through the Draco backwards now, so I suppose I'm in for a 'treat'. I'll admit that everyone peeing on Austen is what arouses my curiosity.

I liked that issue with Northstar at the beginning of his run- and simply using Northstar on an X-Man team was great for me.

Northstar is another important reason that I nevertheless buy these issues. AND I'm a completist when it comes to Uncanny X-Men.

I think Nurse Annie will go into Limbo, and that Havok will not be reunited with her in a few years, until a writer decides to use her for whatever reason. But perhaps they will simply choose to forget her.

I don't get the Austen bashing really. The man is not doing X-Men anymore, nothing from his run is being utilized in the comics right now, and he wasn't that bad, just didn't have a good editor to rein him down. That's what the X-Men comics need right now is a good editor and Claremont is not a good choice.

Austin's Lorna though... oh man, embarrassingly bad stuff there. Even worse given it was done to mainly trump up his (inserted wife) Annie. Milligan salvaged things somewhat, only for Brubaker to crimianly neglect and now write out the character.

Agreed. As a concept, Nurse Annie was okay. Having a human nurse at the school who had issues with mutants was a great idea - Austen just managed to take that idea and stab it full of holes.

Yeah, I posted Austen's plans for Nurse Annie and her brat a while ago. Not only was Magneto the kids Daddy, but his imaginary friend was going to be Cassandra Nova influencing him.

Yeah. Which was why I was so confused about him introducing that idea just as Creepy Carter and his mother were leaving...

You forgot "had She-Hulk lie on her back for Juggernaut because he said he liked the idea of womens' rights".

As for the Parrot Wolves Of Doom, they made me laugh because they were so stupid.

I don't get how he ruined Havok and Grant Morrison made Lorna crazy in the first place.

He made Havok a cheater, which is something I can't see him ever doing, having witnessed first hand when Scott left Maddie for Jean. Alex HATED Scott for doing that, so I think it was way out of character for him to abandon Lorna like that. 5 minutes after ditching Lorna at the altar, he was in Paris making out with that Nurse woman, and I found that extremely un-Havok like.

As for Polaris, I too liked the Magneto subplot, as well as her insanity that Morrison touched upon. But Austen took that and made Lorna soooo overtop psycho. The woman suffered a mental breakdown, but that doesn't mean she's prone to go on a killing spree. That was just ridiculous.

jmc247
05-09-2007, 02:31 PM

Since the end of House of M Lorna's storyline has been completely disconnected from Magneto's as he has been sidelined probably until Uncanny 500 or somewhere near there. As much as I didn't find Austin's writing all that good I was far far far more interested in Lorna and her storyline a couple years ago then I am now.

The fact you want her shuffled off the scene for a couple years and then try to excuse that with saying well Magneto being her father is worse for the character tells me you are no Polaris fan.

If you agree that shuffling her off is bad for the character which you seem to then it shouldn't be done period. Given the number of ongoing comics, there should always be a place for her somewhere, hell even X-Factor.

rilokyle
05-09-2007, 02:34 PM
All I know is, I want Lorna (and Alex) to continue in some x-book after Uncanny #486 drops. I definitely don't want them off in space where they'll be forgotten about. I actually like Brubaker's characterization of those two, and would gladly appreciate it if he kept them in his book. Because without them in it, there's no way I'm buying that book anymore.

Perhaps, but when she did show up then obviously it would be interesting to see her in her new role. Its not just shuffling her into limbo...its showing in a new role. Its a far better role then being Magnetos' daughter and a bit more interesting. It would give those two characters a new perspective. You obviously are a fan of Lorna which is great, and I am to an extent, and I can see your point of view but, again I think though it might anger some of the fans to see her leave earth, it is far better then the crap that Austen did to her...and yes I know it was Morrisons idea partially, but Austen crapped it out...

I disagree Lorna's relationship with Magneto and the House of M is the most interesting thing she has going for her. What else is engaging fans about the character? A relationship with Havok that was tired and old a decade ago? No, not really.

I see people talking constantly about Lorna and her relationship with Magneto for and against. I hear crickets chirping when people bring up her relationship with Havok or her recient storylines like What Lorna Saw and her space advantures.

LMAO, and then afterwards Mojo and Spiral transform her into an Xbaby and then she is killed is in Mojo world...end of Nurse Annie and bad xstories, hello great x stories...

Mojo would easily tire of Nurse Annie's undying love at some point before he disposes of her....

Spiral would not have to do anyting; Mojo could just point & Nurse Annie could explode into daisies.

I disagree Lorna's relationship with Magneto and the House of M is the most interesting thing she has going for her. What else is engaging fans about the character? A relationship with Havok that was tired and old a decade ago? No, not really.

I see people talking constantly about Lorna and her relationship with Magneto for and against. I hear crickets chirping when people bring up her relationship with Havok or her recient storylines like What Lorna Saw and her space advantures.

Well, I do think the Magneto plot in an interesting twist, but I wish it would be dealt with one way or another. I don't like that it remains unadressed.

I think I may by the only one, but I LIVE for the Lorna/Alex saga. I love them together, and "What Lorna Saw" (part 1 anyways) was my favorite Milligan issue by a landslide.

Annie stank. Her whole "Oooh, I can't love a man I can't kiss...Oh Chamber, I never saw you there! But I'm not sorry! Oh crap, now I'm in love with Havok, whom I've never actually kissed!"

Bah. I defended Chuck a lot at the time, but looking back his run was actually that bad.

She said to Paige to get over Chamber because you can't love someone you can't kiss, while Jono was in the room. She was a f*cking bitch.

I'd partially agree with that issue. There was some nice Lorna/Alex interaction - probably the only good character interaction in the entire of Milligan's run.

It's just a shame that it is somewhat soured by the revelation that what Lorna saw was some weird illogical, and unexplained, lump of space snot - which may or may not have been giving her some new powers - which has never been referred to since, and hopefully never will.

Yeah, I was SO excited to finally find out was Lorna saw. And then it was friggin's Doop. LAME. Did Milligan even both to explain it? No. LAMER.

But it was Daap not Doop... ;)

I'm guessing he was going to do more with that storyline but his run ended too soon for him to get to it.

He made Havok a cheater, which is something I can't see him ever doing, having witnessed first hand when Scott left Maddie for Jean.

Both Scott & Alex suffered thanks to the Morrison/Austen years. Poor guys.

She said to Paige to get over Chamber because you can't love someone you can't kiss, while Jono was in the room. She was a f*cking bitch.

You forgot the part where she said all that while people were bleeding to death around her.

When I get to write my own X-Title, Nurse Annie will return....:evilsmile

It was gonna be Magneto.

I can do without that.

Magneto has too many kids. Its like he trips and falls into fertile vaginas. Thats why i dislike the Polaris stuff.

I refuse to believe that there are six pages of posts about Nurse Annie. Think about how many jigabytes of information are now unavailable to be put towards a cure for cancer. You should all be ashamed.
