Q. Mimic is the 6th original x-men, to many people try to add danger, sage Moria etc.. to the team but canon is just canon. how do you feel about mimic?

A. I like Mimic, but I have to say that he's a footnote. He wasn't even a mutant when he joined up originally (although I guess somebody retroactively made him one in the years that followed.) So yes, he did join the X-Men and was the legitimate sixth member of the team. But he was only there for about two issues, and then gone again.Cool goggles

Marvel Universe Angel Figure

With a few tweaks, can a Marvel Universe Mimic Figure be far behind?

GAGE'S "X-MEN LEGACY" GOES ON AN EXODUS

It looks like after the Exodus storyline you're writing a tale featuring two former members of Norman Osborn's now defunct Dark X-Men, Mimic and Weapon Omega. What can you tell us about this story, and what was it about these characters that made you want to bring them into the book?

Christos Gage: I've been a Mimic fan for ages. I just think he's an awesome character with a cool look. I'm also a sucker for characters who have failed to live up to their potential, as anyone who read my takes on Johnny Guitar, Constrictor and Taskmaster in "Avengers: The Initiative" knows, and these two fit the bill. They're tremendously powerful, but personal circumstances and aspects of their personalities have made them easily manipulated by others and prone to bad mistakes. Their abilities are also similar to Rogue's, and given that she's our lead character I thought it would be interesting to compare their similarities and differences. At its core, this is a story about two very good friends who have seen some rough times, and how far they'll go to help each other.

Christos Gage is a Mimic fan and gets it!

This can't get here fast enough!

Also, Mimic/Omega's story is part of Avengers vs X-Men! Sweet!

You beat me to this by seconds!

Very glad to hear Mr. Gage's a fan of the character, although I had my suspicions ever since his Magneto House of M mini.

Wait what?

He said that the Legacy parts of AVX are in three parts. She-Hulk and the Avengers coming to the school. A Frenzy story. And he can't say what the last part is without spoiling.
