In 2022, the Askani’son was killed by the Progenitors and also by Uranos… twice! Thankfully his daughter heads up The Five and the Resurrection Protocols.
Against Uranos, he brought out his biggest gun and made him bleed, in a solid showing. In the case of the Progentiors… well, he uncovered the treachery of Abigail Brand and her role in that attack, among many other machinations, and formed his own X-men Red squad to go after her. Currently on the World Farm about to do battle with some powerful aliens and Orbis Stellaris…

Stats and power ratings are from the Marvel cards, so they vary over the years…

I keep forgetting he's bonded with the homey Xilo. I hope they at least mention how that happened. Originally Posted by Jackraow21

I really hope he(Josh Brolin) appears in Deadpool. It would be the most badass team up(X-Force) for comic book films
Happy New Year!

Any chance you all want to see a conversation Maddie and Nathan? It seems like they might have a lot to talk about.
