Go To

  • Awesome Moments: After 33 years in comics, and more than 25 years of having her "true potential" discussed, in issue #5 Jubilee finally gets to cut loose and show what she's really capable of, completely destroying the Collector's city-sized spaceship in a self-generated nuclear explosion.
    Jubilee: I've always wanted to try this, but never had an arena large enough to practice in! Until now! Eat my atom bomb, Eternal dork!
  • Funny Moments: The whole damned series, but particular mention must go to:
    • Jubilee's insult-compliments towards Boom-Boom when she turns up dressed to party in issue #1:
    Boom-Boom: You dumb bitches. You should have told me the dress code was "depression".
    Jubilee: You look like if Barbie was a sex addict
    Boom-Boom: Awww, thank you.
    Jubilee: Boom-Boom, you look like the final stop on a bimboification spectrum.
    Boom-Boom: Ooh, even better.
    Dazzler: I'll be honest — I'm going to drink until you have to carry me home tonight.
    Jubilee: I'm in!
    Boom-Boom: I'm already drunk.
    Jubilee: And you look like Glinda the Good Witch's porn parody. Cheers, ladies!
    • And Tabby's response in kind in issue #5, after Jubes has burned off all her own clothes and hair:
    Boom-Boom: Yeah, well. You look like a naked mole rat who was given Super-Soldier Serum, Jubilee.
    Jubilee: Sick.
    Boom-Boom: You look like a cursed doll that an evil wizard animated and then irradiated.
    Jubilee: Badass.
    Boom-Boom: You look like my big toe.
    Jubilee: Ha ha ha!
    • The resolution of issue #1's cliffhanger. Dazzler, Boom-Boom and Jubilee find themselves face to face with a snarling Wolverine, claws out and blood up. Things look grim... and then the next issue starts with a beat panel with narration building Laura up as the final boss, asking "will they survive... or will she shred them into pieces?", followed by Laura immediately putting her claws away with a cheery "Oh, hey. What're you guys doing here?"
    • Issue #3 has the Quiet Council of Krakoa, the supreme rulers of mutantkind and one of the most powerful bodies on the planet, drawn into a discussion of how great Dazzler's ass is.
    Professor X: I'm certain that level of detail isn't necessary.
    Dazzler: And why were you guys talking about my ass anyway?
    Boom-Boom: Because you should be proud. Really, you should.
