History
Mutants or Homo Superior were a breed of humans born with extraordinary powers that generally manifest on puberty or high stress situations. Some believe mutants to be the next stage in the chain of human evolution, while others say they are simply a new branch of humanity. Mutants are the subject of social persecution, but they have defenders such as the X-Men, Magneto and his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Alpha Flight and X-Force.
Vanisher was involved with a drug cartel to produce Designer Genes that was a drug that imparted superpowers for a short time before killing the user. The retrovirus was created by harvesting DNA from Mutants by tapping into the bone marrow. (Uncanny X-Men Annual v1 2001)
In the wake of M-Day, global genetic devastation faced Mutants as a result of the Chaos Wave generated from the Scarlet Witch. Her actions caused many Mutants around the world to be depowered and losing their abilities. It was determined that this was not a case of their powers being inhibited by the existence of the X-Gene being erased with there being no potential for even new Mutants to be born thus creating an endangered species bordering on extinction. (House of M The Day After v1 #1)
Overview
Studies had shown that genetic Mutants had a very specific energy signature that were more powerful than other lifeforms. (X-Men: Deadly Genesis v1 #1)
Certain Mutants were known to succumb to a secondary mutation whereby they gained new abilities. (Uncanny X-Men v1 #412)
There was a classification system that divided Mutants into:
- Omega Level : Xavier believed Omega Level Mutant abilities had unlimited potential. (X-Men Forever v1 #3)
Notes
- Mutants were created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby where they made their first appearance in X-Men v1 #1 (September 1963).
