AKA Remy LeBeau
1. First appearance: Ultimate X-Men#13 (December 2001) by Chuck Austen and Esad Ribić Ultimate X-Men gave the classic mutant Gambit a terrific modern update, presenting him as a mighty blockbuster hero. He can turn any object of his choice into energized projectiles, which result in deadly explosions. Remy's weapon of choice is his throwable playing cards, which leave a trail of devastation in his wake. Gambit is a capable fighter and possesses phenomenal acrobatic skills. In Remy's two-part...
AKA Luke and Matthew
1. First appearance: Ultimate X-Men#58 (April 2005) by Brian K. Vaughan and Steve Dillon Going under the codename Syndicate, conjoined twins Luke and Matthew had a heart that could generate an electromagnetic pulse. This is impressive power, as the longer their pulse was stored within their bodies, the more powerful it was when it was released. Because of their interlinked grey matter, Syndicate also had immunity to telepathic control. Luke and Matthew also had an enhanced sense of smell, not...
AKA Warren Worthington III
1. First Appearance: Ultimate X-Men#40 (December 2003) by Brian Michael Bendis and David Finch Warren Worthington III wasn't a founding team member, unlike the mainstream version of the X-Men. Instead, the high-flying Angel joined the second class of the Ultimate X-Men alongside members like Rogue and Dazzler. Worthington had little combat training, but his love of flying made his skills in the air unparalleled. Angel received no physical upgrades or wing enhancements like his 616 version. Hi...
AKA Hank McCoy
1. First Appearance: Ultimate X-Men #1 (December 2000) by Mark Millar and Adam Kubert The Ultimate version of Beast strongly reflects his mainstream counterpart. While he may not boast powerful omega-level abilitieslike Iceman or Jean Grey, Hank McCoy was the brains behind the X-Man's operation. He was born with incredibly dextrous feet and eventually gained agility and superhuman strength alongside his incredible intellect. Weapon X further transformed Beast into his more familiar blue-furre...
AKA Unknown
1. First Appearance: Ultimate X-Men#80 (March 2007) by Robert Kirkman and Yanick Paquette The Ultimate X-Men'sversion of Pyro proved different from the one introduced to readers in the early 1980s. His real name was never revealed in the comics, but it's possible he was still St. John Allerdyce, like the Earth-616 version. Pyro was covered in third-degree burns since he wasn't immune to his own abilities. However, Ultimate Pyro could generate flames without the means of apparatus built into h...
AKA Betsy Braddock
1. First Appearance: Ultimate X-Men#17 (June 2002) by Mark Millar and Adam Kubert The 1610 version of Psylocke was a force to be reckoned with, something she repeatedly demonstrated. Betsy Braddock established herself as England’s most powerful telepath. She could read minds, create psychic grenades, and brandish a psychic blade. David Haller/Legion once possessed Psylocke, but she was strong enough to overpower him momentarily. When Colossus dropped a car on her, Betsy's consciousness proved...
AKA Alison Blaire
1. First Appearance: Ultimate X-Men#42 (February 2004) by Brian Michael Bendis and David Finch Like her 616 counterpart, Alison Blaire was a musician whose mutant ability allowed her to convert sound into light. However, as the Ultimate universe took place in a modernized continuity, she was no longer a disco queen but a pop/punk princess, giving the character an extra edge. However, it also made Ultimate Dazzler a bit of a counter-culture-loving loner. She rarely trained her abilities alongs...
AKA Derek Morgan
1. First Appearance: Ultimate X#3 (June 2010) by Jeph Loeb and Arthur Adams Derek Morgan discovered he could transform into a powerful avian form that featured a set of retractable wings and other bird of prey features like razor-sharp talons. He operated secretly due to the public phobia of mutants in the Ultimate universe, though he still earned a reputation around his neighborhood as a guardian angel. Derek Morgan joined Jean Grey/Karen Grant's secret mutant strike team after his brother d...
AKA Lucas Bishop
1. First Appearance: Ultimate X-Men#43 (March 2004) by Brian Michael Bendis and David Finch Much like his 616 counterpart, the mutant Bishop came back from the future to help the X-Men. In the Ultimate universe, he was one of Cable's soldiersfrom the X-Men's future who joined the mutant after he got stranded in the past. Ultimate Bishop's mutant abilities differ from the mainstream version of the character. While the 616 Bishop can absorb and re-channel energy, 1610 Bishop is a density manipu...
AKA Liz Allan
1. First Appearance: Ultimate Spider-Man#1 (September 2000) by Brian Michael Bendis, Bill Jemas, and Mark Bagley The Ultimate universe featured a unique take on the classic Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends animated series. Liz Allen was Peter Parker's friend, and her mutant abilities manifested when she got too close to a bonfire. Spider-Man and Iceman helped Liz deal with her new abilities before she officially joined the X-Men. Ultimate Firestar's powers had a different angle than Earth-6...

- Jean Grey (Dark Phoenix) There is no denying the fact that Jean Grey is easily the most powerful X-Men character out there. The extent of her powers is still unknown and no one knows how far it can go.
- Magneto. One of the few mutants who can evade Professor X’s telepathy is Magneto. One of the best hero-villain dynamics that I have ever witnessed on screen is that of Professor X and Magneto.
- Professor X. Professor X or Professor Charles Xavier is the man behind the concept of X-Men. Charles Xavier is a powerful telepath whose full extent of powers is not incorporated in the mutant universe yet.
- Wolverine. We know that the most loved mutant in the whole X-Men franchise is none other than Wolverine. Hugh Jackman’s adaptation of X-Men became a living legend dubbing Jackman to be born to play Wolverine.
