For me, Grant Morrison did the Superhero with a family thing so well, and took it to places that you couldn't with any other character. It's hard to see any other writer being able to top the challenges that Buddy and his wife and kids went through in his ongoing series.
Valeria is the daughter of Sue and Reed, and the number of ret-cons and time-travel/alternate universe summersaults we are forced to go through to comprehend her existance makes Cable and Rachel Summers heads explode. The short cut would be to say that she is the baby that was conceived in the negative zone and whom Sue later miscarried during John Byrne's run on the title.
Whatever happened to Johnny Storm's Skrull wife and kid BTW? Given what happened to Elektra in the latest New Avengers, everyone should be looking back to that one for answers.
