20/ The New Mutants take young Illyana home to Russia in New Mutants #77. By the point I've reached, at the end of Muir Island, I've been missing teenage Magik for a while. She had one of my favorite character arcs in everything I've read so far, and I wasn't ready for her time with the team to end. I know there are later stories with her. I don't know how any of that happens, and I want to find out by reading them. She's one of the reasons I want to keep working my way toward the current material. I've got about thirty more years of stories ahead of me, and I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with her. For now, though, I miss Illyana. That sword, that personality, and everything she was trying to work through made her one of the characters I wanted to keep spending time with. [New Mutants #77](https://t.co/rMPI67nZCW)
