X men characters biography

Our Character Spotlights provide an in-depth look at an individual characters comic book appearances. Each entry will always include a Vital Statistics and Biography section. For those characters with a more diverse history, we will also include a costume gallery, alternate versions and issue checklist sections.

In most cases it will be written as a factual entry listing in chronological order the history of the character. However for some characters, this would just result in a "turn up, fights, loses, turns up again several years later for a fight, loses, etc" and for those we have taken a more narrative approach to their history. These were previously known as our Bring on the Bad Guys articles.

If you find any errors that need correcting, or if you would like to contribute to this section get in touch.
