Any issues packed with Spiral? I'd like to read her origins in the comics too if anyone knows what series and issue is it

    Tbh I have never come across a comic that focuses on her, she's just referenced every so often in the xmen comics from what I've seen, so I can't help there

    Thinking about this some, this could be a fun idea to do with new champs, like a little bookclub where we read an issue or two between when they're announced and when they're available. Gives me a good reason to use my Marvel Unlimited subscription more haha.

    May require some deep pulls though like in this instance haha

    You know what can be cool?
    You guys showing the very comics panels you use for the attack animations you give champions, or panels that reflect the reasoning for them having certain abilities

    So we see how you literally bring comics to life

    But yeah I'm reading the Longshot series now like @EdisonLaw recommended and I'm getting to Spiral's part

    She has some good moments away from Mojo, on the Sisterhood. Uncanny X-Men #508

    I also volunteer to help in any way as a deep, deep Marvel comics fan (been reading X-Men since I was a kid in the early 90's).

    And to OP, for Spiral, if you can stand the many, many tangents (they're actually pretty fun and offer a lot comparisons, literary and pop culture references), you should listen to the Cerebro Podcast episode about Spiral.

    It's episode 80 and it's titled Rita Hayward (her real name). And if you want to listen to *just* the character file (that explains the characters linear history from their first appearance till now), that begins at 1:07:20.

    Let's go! Do the Spiral dance!!!


    But I don't wanna hear about her, I wanna read it

    Fo sure. Sometimes these characters are so convoluted from their very long history that some people like hearing a condensed version of her character history *alongside* reading some of her appearances.

    Great idea Pinwheel, because sometimes the community may not know who the character may be before they get introduced into the contest.

    The original Longshot limited series is excellent.

    Noticed that they provided a little *note* in EQ story for Dazzler.

    The one he gets teleported to earth and has no idea who he is, and meets Rita?
