Control Freak | |
| Emma Frost (Comic Book) / int_11ad560b | comment |
Winston Frost is an abusive Control Freak to his children, especially Emma and Christian. He sets high expectations for his children yet never gives them any positive reinforcement, always criticizing their every decision. When Emma expresses a desire to become a teacher, Winston views this as beneath the family name and threatens to destroy her crush Ian Kendall's teaching career by revealing the camera footage of him and Emma kissing. When he learns Christian is gay, Winston has him evicted from the townhouse he is living in to make him come home. He has No Sympathy for Christian when he attempts suicide and has him committed to a mental asylum after learning of his drug addiction. | |

Big, Screwed-Up Family | |
| Emma Frost (Comic Book) / int_154aa477 | comment |
Big, Screwed-Up Family: The Frosts. Winston is an abusive control freak who also cheats on his wife and pits his children against each other to win his approval. His wife Hazel is implied to resort to drugs and alcohol to deal with the chaos of her family. The eldest daughter Adrienne is a manipulative sociopath who thinks little to nothing of hurting her siblings to get her father's approval. The second eldest daughter Cordelia is a teenage Goth rebel who frequently acts out to get her parents' attention. Christian is a closeted homosexual who turns to drugs after his boyfriend is deported. And of course, we have Emma who starts out as a decent person but will become the White Queen in the future. | |

Sexy Packaging: The first few covers are pin-up shots of the adult Emma wearing a very revealing costume. The comic features Emma as a teenager, who usually dresses modestly and has a flat chest. Later covers are more in line with the actual content of the issue. | |

RetCon | |
| Emma Frost (Comic Book) / int_b2279346 | comment |
Retcon: In Generation X, Emma said she was sent to a mental institution by her parents when her powers first manifested when she was a girl. In this series, Emma's older brother Christian is the one who is institutionalized and Emma leaves home after graduation in protest of this, with no mention of her ever being sent to a mental hospital. The canonicity of this is seemingly later retconned when Emma is shown in a later title in an institution. There it was because her telepathy drove her out of her mind, but being under the mental control of entities called the Evolutionaries appeared to have stabilized her. | |
