Giant-Size X-Men

51st entry in my Mcu/R-Rated

The first big shake-up for the team came when the original team andHavok were abducted by Arcade. First Professor X sent a brand new team of untried students trained by Moira MacTaggert. This team included Darwin, Sway,and Petra, but they were quickly overtaken by Arcades Traps. Petra and Sway were killed but Vulcan was left in suspended animation (partially due to Darwin's powers). When Krakoa released Cyclops to bring more mutants to feed on, Professor X gathered several young mutants who already had experience in their powers: Storm, Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Thunderbird, Sunfire, and Banshee. Due to Professors X's mental manipulations, Vulcan's team was completely forgotten and Storm's team became known as the X-Men second generation.Arcade is a hitman who is often hired to take out irksome heroes. While he is normally rather successful,[6] Arcade rarely fares well against true superheroes. Despite his prowess in killing people, Arcade refuses to kill them in typical ways, preferring instead to build giant death traps called Murderworlds to kill them, enjoying the game itself more than the actual murder.
