Article Summary
- Madelyne Pryor has been largely absent from X-Men since Fall of Krakoa, aside from recent Marvel magical crossover ties.
- X-Men #33’s letters page teases a new Madelyne Pryor project arriving before the end of 2026 from Marvel Comics.

- With San Diego Comic-Con next week, Marvel may be ready to announce Madelyne Pryor’s long-awaited X-Men return.
There are few comic book characters with continuity as complex as that of Madelyne Pryor. Okay, certainly at Marvel. Okay, certainly within the X-Men. Okay, amongst red-haired telepaths not called Jean Grey. Madelyne Pryor, clone of Jean Grey, wife of Cyclops, mother of Cable, Goblin Queen hereafter, and not been seen in X-Men books since a certain Fall Of Krakoa
Carol Danvers invited her to ally with the Avengers and the Masters of Evil against One World Under Doom, then going up against the new Sorceror Supreme Scarlet Witch, but remaining Queen Of Limbo. But that’s been about it
Today’s Inglorious X-Force #7 byTim SeeleyandMichael Sta. Mariasees a reunion of Cable and his father Cyclops. Yes, I know. Time travel. While over in X-Men #33 byJed MacKayandTony Daniel, Kid Omega also talks about a major X-figure and his children
But what about mothers? What about the woman who gave birth to Cable, and who Cyclops then left? Well, in the letters page of X-Men #33, we get an answer. An apology. And a promise
A Madelyne Pryor “project” before the end of the year. Wouldn’t San Diego Comic-Con next week be a perfect place to announce it?
