The X-Men

The X-Men


The X-men. The first mutants who fought against me. They follow and defend the dream of my old friend Charles Xavier. Charles believes that mutants and humans can exist together peacefully. The X-Men work to achieve human-mutant peace and defend humans against mutants who would harm or subjugate them.

The X-Men were formed by Xavier who opened his School for Gifted Youngsters in order to train young mutants in the use of their powers. Professor Xavier's original students included Cyclops, Phoenix (then known as Marvel Girl), Angel, Beast, and Iceman.

I have fought against them more than I would like to have. For a time, I was even their headmaster. Although they are the children of the atom, I would have no difficulty in erasing their existance. Though I hope that never has to happen.


As a result of the Onslaught crisis, the government has officially sanctioned Operation: Zero Tolerance to end the "mutant problem." Its primary mission is to find and capture the X-Men, who have now been branded as outlaws by the American government.

Perhaps this will show to them, as I have known for years, that humanity WILL NOT accept us. Possibly some of them will be prepared to join the fold of my Acolytes.
