Who is the X-traitor?
It’s a question we’re seemingly meant to ask at least once a decade since the 1990s.
Back then, there was only the one X-traitor, the great mystery teased by Bishop shortly after his arrival in the present. Early signs pointed to Gambit, but it wound up being Professor X, possessed by Onslaught.
Not that Charles cornered the market on betraying the team. Damn near every X-man has made a heel turn at some point. Jean Grey went Dark Phoenix. Cyclops … also went Dark Phoenix. Angel became Archangel. Colossus peaced out to join the Acolytes. Wolverine, Gambit, Sunfire and Polaris have all been Horsemen of Apocalypse. Bishop tried to kill a baby. Havok and Emma Frost both got AXIS-ed. Beast did so many war crimes he had to be reset like the Sega Genesis game. The list goes on.
But we’re in the era of everything old is new again, so why not tease a new X-traitor mystery? X-Force style!
Who do you think assassinated Kamala Khan in the future? Archangel? Hellverine? Boom-Boom? Paul from Amazing Spider-Man? Let us know in the comments!
