The OP Goblyn Queen is the one from the X-World story arc, the same with Iceman: The Ice-Man, Beast: The Brute, Angel: The Fallen, and Storm: Bloodstorm.  Based on what I recall of the X-World arc, it is a parallel timeline where certain events happened differently, such as Storm's run-in with Dracula ended in Storm becoming a vampire herself, and the experiment that turned Hank McCoy into a blue fur-ball in the normal continuity, transformed him into the Brute in the X-World continuity, which is the green, gilled, cloven-hooved, significantly less intelligent Beast.  Prior to his transformation, he attempted to help Bobby Drake with his mutation, and wound up making things worse for Iceman, forcing him to wear a containment type suit, so-as not to make physical contact with others, which would freeze them instantly.  This parallel's Goblyn Queen is also Madeline Pryor, but in this universe she is in love with and married to Havok, not Cyclops.  They have a child together, Scotty, named after Havok's brother...  I forget what happened to him in this alternate universe...  I also forget what the deal with Angel was, I just remember that he had large, leathery bat wings and fangs...  I have the full collection of all the books, but they were released back in '97-'98.  I have to re-read them.

thanks for the kind words (even though half the posts are mine ;))

couple hints

acolytes
brood
hulk
mysterio

hint 1: this has nothing to do with overpower or comics (or even the characters listed!)
hint 2: this theme is circa the same time as overpower was around (and similarly niche, so if it doens't jump at you, don't wrack your brain ;))

I thought about wrestling, but I couldn't figure out acolytes or brood.  I know you said use the net, but I only go to 2 sites on this computer... palatinus forums, and yahoo mail.  It dumps on every other website.
