X-Men | Comics

As an evolved species of Homo Sapiens, Mutants are people with uncanny abilities because of the presence of an extraordinary X-Gene they carry and are feared by humans in general. But there was a man with the dream of a peaceful co-existence between humans and mutants, who wanted to change the misconception that “Mutants are a threat for Humanity”.

So, that man, Professor Charles Xavier gathered a group of young mutants with great potentials to form a team called X-Men to stand for his vision and will try and protect the world from any disasters that comes forth. He also created a safe heaven for the gifted youngsters at his mansion in Westchester County, New York.

The group of X-Men started with Professor XCyclops, Marvel Girl, Angel, Iceman and Beast. Later, as replacement and a rescue unit for his original team, Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Banshee, Storm, Sunfire, Colossus and Thunderbird were recruited in by Xavier.

In the later years, they fought the mutant master of magnetism; Magneto, Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Juggernaut, the mutant-hunting Sentinels, an eternal mutant known as Apocalypse, the psionic being Onslaught, even the Latverian tyrant Doctor Doom and many more.

As they have took part in the events like Deadly Genesis, Phoenix Saga, Days of Future Past, Fall of the Mutants, Muir Island Saga, X-Tinction Agenda, Mutant Genesis, Legion Quest and DecimationXavier's X-Men stands for the symbol of good mutants who fights for the welfare of both humanity and their own kind.
