Exodus didn't know he had powers until he met Apocalypse, who either forced his powers to awaken (Bennet Du Paris was a late bloomer like Magneto) or gave him the Moses Magnum/Nathaniel Essex/Caliban...etc., treatment, enhancing him...

Afterwards Exodus was just another brainwashed servant of Apocalypse, but the latter made the mistake of ordering him to kill his best friend, the Black Knight, soon after his transformation, and Exodus managed to break free from Apocalypse's mind control (like Archangel did when he thought he had killed Iceman) and turned against Apocalypse, who defeated him and put him in stasis in a tomb until Magneto found him and awakened him.

Mmm. Sexodus!
With the Crusader armour and Sol, I'm half expecting him to raise his hands and shout, "Praise the sun!"
Exodus is the kind of fanatic I'm interested in Gillen exploring. And someone enhanced by faith in him who has faith in those 'above' him? Fascinating.
...and here's a bit of Exodus vs Holocaust.

Although I'm just speculating, seeing how this is part of Judgement Day, it wouldn't surprise me if we got a retcon that the Eternals and Sersi entombed Exodus, not Apoc , because they feared his powers would grow among humanity during the crusades(as it was an age of great religious fervour), something they couldn't allow.It will be interesting to get a deeper understanding of the man,regardless.Cant wait

I always thought he was a mutant with some or all of his abilities, but Big A enhanced him.

I do wonder though if A did/does have the power to 'make' mutants a century or two before Nathan Essex is born... BUT his Essex enhancement didn't make him a mutant?

Even if he couldn't give x-genes to humans, he could for sure enhance both mutants and humans with Celestial tech and Celestial seeds. He enhanced Ozymandias and Essex without Essex's help.

Don't you love it when Marvel writers and artists fail to do any kind of bullpen fact-checking before they agree to publish a story or worse develop a contagious case of selective amnesia and pen a story differently than one that was already written?

Bennet du Paris' origin story was written in "Black Knight: Exodus #1" -- Immortal X-Men #5 must be an in-story flashback because in "Black Knight: Exodus #1", Apocalypse only spoke to Paris telepathically and told him to feel the power within himself -- Apocalypse never reveled himself to Paris -- much less physically touch his face...
