Notes:

Madelyne briefly became Anodyne in the X-Men/Alpha Flight limited series. She later became the Goblyn Queen in Uncanny X-Men (1st series) #234. Madelyne died in X-Factor (1st series) #37 during Inferno, but was accidentally resurrected when Nate Grey crossed over from the Age of Apocalypse. With his mental powers he tried to reach out to the friendly person he met before (Jean) and subconsciously gave the echo of Madelyne's psyche a new form (X-Man #5).

Madelyne had an unknown but apparently disastrous encounter with Queen Jean Grey of a parallel earth, who "killed" her and replaced her at Nate Grey's side following X-Man #52.

Madelyne reappeared as the Red Queen in Uncanny X-Men (1st series) #499-511, a psychically-powerful spirit without physical substance. She regained a physical form with the Sisterhood in X-Men (4th series) #12. She was killed by greycrow in Hellions #4, but later resurrected on Krakoa in Hellions #18.

As an ally of the X-Men during the Australian era, Madelyne was once rendered invisible to all forms of electronic detection.

Madelyne's middle name Jennifer was revealed during the wedding in Uncanny X-Men #175.
