Mystique and Destiny have one of the longest-lasting romances in Marvel Comics, and the upcoming Immortal X-Men series will allow fans to learn more about their love story.
The upcoming Immortal X-Men series will explore the histories and political destinies of each member of Krakoa's ruling Quiet Council, including the shape-shifting former villain Mystique and her long-time wife, the recently resurrected Destiny. Raven and Irene have both lived long and mysterious lives, and while their original creator always intended them to explicitly be a lesbian couple, their relationship has only been made canon recently.
Chris Claremont, who many view as the architect behind the X-Men brand, created many queer characters throughout his 16 years of writing X-Men in the 70s and 80s, but editorial decisions by then editor-in-chief of Marvel Jim Shooter led to Claremont being unable to explicitly out any of his LGBTQ+ characters. First introduced in 1978s Ms. Marvel #16, Mystique was created by Claremont and drawn by Dave Cockrum, before Destiny debuted in 1981's Uncanny X-Men #141, drawn by John Bryne.
"Immortal X-Men for me is this love story of two women across time... Saying that Destiny is Mystique's moral compass is too simple, because that implies that morals are important," Gillen says."But she is the object Mystique orients herself around. That's how I see it. She is of fundamental importance to Mystique, and vice versa."
Gillen's emphasis on how Mystique and Destiny are fundamental to each other is powerful considering how hard readers saw Mystique fight for Destiny's resurrection up until Inferno where she just couldn't take the waiting any longer. Destiny has been canonically dead for years, and since the late 80s in publishing history, so Mystique's desperation to be reunited with her lost love is more than reasonable.
Over the years readers have seen small glimpses into their past, like showing how Mystique would shift into a man so they could dance in public together, but hopefully, Immortal X-Men will show a more encompassing history of their time together as partners before Destiny's death at the hands of Legion. They were both born in the 1800s, so their issue of Immortal X-Men has plenty of history to cover.
