Inferno (Comic Book)/Nightmare Fuel

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • This was filled with minor moments of mass murder/maimings as the city warps into living objects of death, gouging out peoples' eyes and trapping them for eternity in postage stamps. But worse is the murderous elevators: one elevator murders a tourist family (complete with the son screaming for his daddy to save the family as they are killed behind the doors of the elevator). Even WORSE, was a page cut from all printings of the Inferno in collected format from New Mutants #71: right after a scene where the villainous Hellfire Club members are forced to go out to save people from the attack of the demomic objects, we see people banging on an elevator door trying to flee the building. In the page that is cut, a still at this time COMPLETELY 100% EVIL Emma Frost is in telepathic linkage with the people as they flood into the now opening elevator, as she screams at them to not go into the elevator. Cut to the screaming sounds of the dying and the elevator reaching the first floor as Emma (in telepathic contact with the civilians as they are being murdered) screams in utter and complete horror as the elevator opens up and a tidal wave of blood pours out of it, with the skulls and corpses of the dead piled up inside the elevator as the blood pours out.
    • Also, the key plot point is that thirteen infants were supposed to be sacrificed. Thankfully this was averted... and then the US government raised those infants as child soldiers. Brrr...
