Spotlight On...

A mutant whose visions of mutant futures made him fearful of mutants, Larry was born into the infamous Trask family and inspired his father Bolivar to create the legendary Sentinels. Making his own contributions to the mutant-hunting robots, it's fair to assume there will never be a Krakoan holiday named after... TRASK, LARRY!
A man with diamond hands and an ominous, psychic brain, Jack Winters was the first mutant to offer Scott Summers brotherhood. However, he was only interested in his own goals of power. Today we Spotlight the short-lived but (sorta) memorable... LIVING DIAMOND!
The Mad Merlin, the Warlock, the Demonspawn... this mentat has used many names throughout the centuries. The source of his power is questionable, but not his willingness to use it. He seeks the secrets of eternal youth and the opportunity to fulfill his every fantasy of power. Today we look closely at the man sometimes known as... MAHA YOGI!

Spotlight On... LARRY TRASK!

Ever make a joke and then immediately get humbled by the universe? Our Monolith confidently announced Larry Trask as the LEAST likely mutant to ever get resurrected on Krakoa... mere days before the Sentinels limited was announced. Charles Xavier's record of good decisions led to a new Sentinel program in the aftermath of Krakoa's fall. Bolivar Trask's mutant son may have grown from "destroy all mutants" to "detain only dangerous mutants" but that only means he now struggles to make allies among humans and mutants alike. Back in action after 50+ years, Larry Trask wraps up this week of lame villains as a reminder than ANYTHING is possible on a long enough timeline...

Spotlight On... the LIVING DIAMOND!

Because the X-Men were introduced as an already-formed team, their individual origins came out later in a series of back-up stories showing how Xavier recruited them. Jack O'Diamonds was a criminal who tried recruiting the runaway Scott Summers as a partner-in-crime. Jack's madness soon became apparent, though, and the young Cyclops instead helped Charles Xavier fight against the Living Diamond. Jack seemingly died, but he reappeared in the Krakoan Era in a flashback story set shortly before Giant-Size X-Men #1, where... he died again. Okay. Cool.

Profile On... MAHA YOGI!

One of Marvel's oldest mutants, this villain debuted in Thor's feature the same month as X-Men #1 in 1963. However, he has struggled desperately to find a place ever since. The idea that Merlin was the first evil mutant didn't last, so he was renamed the Warlock and confirmed as an imposter of the real Merlin. He next used a stage name as the Maha Yogi...which somehow became his latest codename as well. Then his mutant powers weren't as important as his ties to the Caretaker of Arcturus (Remember them? Don't lie!) or his fragment of the Bloodgem, or Peter David losing a bet and having to write a story with Red Raven. Nearly 25 years later, "Merlin II" has yet to return from his last evil scheme.

Profile On... LOCUST!

APRIL FOOLS! Just kidding...these guys are idiots. This week is a highlight reel of some of the X-Men's oldest (but lamest) villains. Arguably the X-Men's first real "miss" of a villain, Dr. August Hopper was an insect-obsessed scientist with no mutant abilities or ties to the X-Men's growing lore. The Locust could just as easily have popped up in Tales to Astonish or Amazing Spider-Man, but instead he got used here. Last seen over 20 years ago, the biggest challenge the Locust offered the original X-Factor was remembering who he was!

GREATEST VILLAINS WEEK

This week! On UncannyXmen.net! A celebration! A rogues gallery of fearsome foes who have gone unheralded for years, but have stymied the X-Men since the earliest days. Tremble before their might! Witness their power! And ready yourselves for a week of terrifying villains the likes of which this world have never seen!

Update On... STRYFE!

"Stryfe is dead!!" ...boy, if I only had a nickel for each time we've heard that. As a follow-up to Cable's Update, today we focus on his twisted twin, the Chaos-Bringer. Stryfe has returned from certain death multiple times now, through new bodies or time loops or both. He is anarchy incarnate and the very concept of Stryfe seems enmeshed into the timeline, a bad penny that will always turn up from one history or another to threaten Cable in the past, present, and future.
