Is her last name Darkholme or Darkhölme? I'm imagining I've seen it with an umlaut. Ventifax
Limitations
Just human shape? In the movie, she assumed the shape of a minature Statue of Liberty. --Menchi 07:43, 22 Nov 2003 (UTC)
- It wasn't a miniature, it was a human sized statue. On the X-Men 1.5 DVD, Bryan Singer says he doesn't know if her becoming a statue was allowed in the comics. --Sketchee 23:32, May 22, 2005 (UTC)
Essentially. They've stretched things a few times - having her take on Angel's (feathered) wings and imitating Mojo, but she's always been humanoid or near enough - SoM 00:50, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
Grammar
The grammar in this article needs to be combed through and cleaned up. Also, at one point, we have a reference to Graydon Creed being a homo spaien as opposed to homo superor, or mutant. However, has it not been revealed that mutants are actually homo sapien superior and humans are homo sapien sapiens? Zephyrprince 20:42, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- Did some of this today, but only by sections. Probably missed some, since I'm not a Mystique-expert (actually came here reading, not editing). -- nae'blis (talk) 16:52, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
Sexuality?
Why was the tag for "Category:Fictional gays and lesbians" taken off?Zephyrprince 16:03, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
- It seems to have been restored by now... I've also added a trivia bit on her being the only character in the Marvel Universe openly depicted as bisexual... I'm guessing this can be taken as fact...?Zeppocity 03:40, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
- Do you mean the LGBT category? I think someone might have removed it because they didn't know what it meant when they saw "LGBT"; when I first saw it I didn't know what it meant either. -- VederJuda 13:40, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
- No, it was removed when it was under the category Category:Fictional gays and lesbians. It was done by the user Merman, who also removed the gay content from the Alan Cumming article. --DrBat 14:31, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

I'm thinking that Mystique may be the most well-known bisexual character in the Marvel Universe. There has not been a great negative reaction to this, due to the lesser stigma being attached to bisexual (especially female) characters than the few of those who are male homosexual, as shown notably by the popularity of lesbian pornography among young celibate men, composing the core audience of comic readers. can be trimmed down to remove the theorizing.
