Maybe it was an under-aged Wolverine and she was taking advantage of him.

Kitty always had stuffed animals in her room in the early Claremont stuff, most notably BAMF!, the little Nightcrawler plushie. Gurewitch seems to play on this with a similar looking cat Beast plushie.
My moment was from Incognitio #6, in The Zeppelin Pulps-- Jess Nivens' backmatter essay that this issue was about pre-Hindenberg pulp heroes who rolled in pimped-out blimps.
In May, 1937, the zeppelin genre of pulps seemed poised to become as significant and established a pulp genre as sports, romance, and detective pulps were. Hollywood was preparing to capitalize on the genre's popularity. Several zeppelin films were in pre-production, including the Willis O'Brien-directed War Eagles (in which Lost Race Vikings, riding pterodactyls, battle German zeppelins in the skies over New York) ... But on May 6th the Hindenberg burned.
I'm sorry but I think zeppelins would be the least practical weapons or vehicles on the battlefield. Something that slow and big, plus highly flammable?
I have to admit, I kind of wish the next iteration of Exiles starred the villainous Exiles briefly glimpsed in this issue. The team that had MODOK as a member, and Mojo as the Time Broker.
So, when we last left off, the Exiles have to return to the first reality they had visited. A place where Magneto had united the Brotherhood and X-Men as one after Charles Xavier died. The Exiles needed to split up this alliance, and exposed Magneto being an evil dick, but it didn't quite do the trick. So, they have Exiles-Wanda tell Jean that Scott's a jerk instead!
That's right. Scott is a cheating dick in every reality. WHY IS JEAN NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU SCOTT?
Anyways, this ends up pitting the two telepaths against one another, and it manages to split up the Alliance completely. In an angry fervor, Emma kills that reality's Wanda because she thought that she was the one who told about the affair.
So, the Exiles get called to a different reality, one that's totally at peace. They get to relax before their next mission. It's pretty uneventful, until Morph appears to take them somewhere else. The other Exiles had begun to suspect Blink of her slowly prodding them along (Backseat leading, if you will) so they interfere with the teleport and head to the source, the Crystal Palace. They start to explore and find a few different Exiles teams being introduced to their missions, like this team that Munch mentioned.
So anyways, the team goes further and meets the embodiment of the Palace, Kang. To cut matters short, the team learns a lot about the Crystal Palace and underlying motivations. You can buy it if you want to read it, because explaining it would only make it sound less interesting. Even though it was pretty awesome. Burned through a lot of plot Jeff Parker had planned to reveal, I'm sure.
I digress, the team gets to take a gander at their old realities and to see the affects of their deaths/disappearances on them.
Obviously, the original Exiles decide to continue on and train many Exile teams to keep time safe.
They also talk about what they learned won't always be true, due to the wonky nature of time.
And, PSYCHE! The Wanda that Emma killed was the Exiles-Wanda. Evil Wanda has infiltrated the team, as it were.
Too bad we'll never know what happens because you people suck!
Exiles was way too exposition heavy, because it was a mad dash to resolve 5 plotlines at once. But, it was also good and funny and made me really annoyed that it's canceled.
Edit: Oh, yeah, I'm really happy they just completed all the threads they could manage. It did drive home how annoying it was to not see those play out in full, though.

Not to mention that by the look of her room, an underage Kitty.

Best idea ever.
But more importantly that's still a totally awesome idea.
I just now "got" the last page hint about Scarlet Witch in the final Exiles issue
fuck
Prepare to wallow in despair.
Except for Munch. I think he bought it. H5, buddy!

Was that bit about the elderly couple a reference to Claremont's run?

It's Black Panther's son, T'chaka. He has Peter's wisecracking sense of humor, but he's not a carbon copy or anything.
Yes. There was an older couple (though they weren't really elderly. Just middle-aged or so) involved in the last New Exiles arc.
