Didn't Joss reactive her Shadowcat codename? I am pretty sure she didn't use it for a while and just went by Kitty Pryde.

Oh I know its very common to refer to her by her real name - much like Emma or especially Jean - I just was wondering if it was officially retired.

What the hell is a "Shadowcat" anyway? All of Kitty's codenames suck, but I guess that one sucks the least.

I dunno, maybe it comes from the same place as a Seahawk?

I've always really liked the codename myself, I'd probably even call it a favorite. (Of course it also has associations for me with the Mechwarrior verse).
