It'd be nice to see what he's been up to, along with the other younger mutants.

An Atlantean mutant secreted away by his mother after the abandonment of Atlantis, his father eventually brought him to the attention of Namor in a paternity suit. Ordered to attend a mutant school in San Francisco (Graymalkin Industries, current home of the X-Men), rather than remain with his mother or join his father in Latveria with the Atlantean military, he violently rejected the idea, attacking Namor. Reined in by Namor, he was presumably sent to the X-Men.

Powers and Abilities

Crosta can generate shockwaves when distressed which can shatter solid matter.

We already went through this on facebook.

Mike Carey doesn't know who Crosta is, nor, (I believe) does he care.

Indeed, it was a particularly embarrasing moment, Mike Carey got a bit angry after 2 CBR posters started swearing at each other.

Needless to say, Crosta will not be appearing.

It was deleted. In any case, Crosta got eaten by a shark on his way from Atlantis to San Francisco. He's gone.

I figured. I wouldn't mind befriending that dude anyway. I did a search for it a while back and dredged up all kinds of garbage I wasn't looking for.

EDIT: I'm guessing you meant the argument was deleted and not his page.

Mike Carey deleted his facebook because fans kept asking questions about if their favourite character would appear in X-Men Legacy?

So he leaves for Greymalkin... yet he doesn't show up.

Hmm... I smell plot hole.

Namor would be pretty pissed, wouldn't he?

That was very embarassing!

Crosta will appear alongside Esomian (??).

That's not plot hole you're smelling, it's bad thread.

Too Painful. They couldn't bring themselves to do it.

"Bad thread" how? :rolleyes:

It was actually pretty good. The book didn't from the complaints the Fraction-written stories do.

Crosta is dead. When Namor brought Crosta to Emma, Emma had Crosta in the danger room and put it on it's highest level and killed him then had Pixie dump his body in hell

BTW, are there any non human-looking New X-Men still alive/powered? This could be used as an opportunity to explore that dynamic within the cast.

Anole, Mercury, Rockslide, Onyxx, Bling, Indra, Pixie, and sort of Blindfold. Also, Irina may still be among the living and powered.

Crosta should be served as seafood dinner and his blood and guts should be used to sabotage Pixie on prom night like in Stephen King's Carrie.



He is like Squid Boy meets Daisy Johnson and forces his mini tentacle all up in her daisy and BAM out erupts Crosta looking like a retarded salt water bass.

Someone likes fish people too much and cant understand why so many don't.

A Z list mutant doesn't need to appear again and if it does...well, it can be hte new cameo king

Also if it isn't listed under mutants powered after M-Day I assume he underwent a full atlantean homecoming and was "normal" or...was buried at sea goldfish style.

I just went to Pixie's page on comicvine. Someone uploaded it there and it was the first time I had seen the image full-size.
