wow never heard of them lol
Externals
Team » Externals appears in 83 issues.
All members of the Externals were shown to be immortal and important to Apocalypse's rise of power, now only three of them remain...though even those seem to have lost all connection to one another.
The Team That Nobody Knows Exists
I know Gideon was on the team and actually had an action figure. He showed up in alot of the early X-Force books of the late 90's.

"Yep. Selene is the only Xternal still alive. "
Apocalypse and Cannonball are also alive, it's just debated by Selene whether they are Externals or not
fesak says:
"So why does all dead Externals have Immortal as a power?"
cause there immortals...but what would be the definition of immortal, most immortals can be or have been killed (Vandal Savage (DC), Angela (Image), Externals (Marvel).
fesak says:
"No, if someone is immortal they can't be killed. That's what immortal means."
what my main question was, then is there any immortals in comics?
Whats funny is Cannonball wasn't called an External until after he was "killed" by Sauron, as far as I know no other explanation on that was given other than he is an External. So maybe they can die and come back again? Not really an attribute that distinguishes them from any other Marvel character now is it? I liked Gideon and Crule, the others were background decoration.
fesak says:
"fesak says:"No, if someone is immortal they can't be killed. That's what immortal means."I have to disagree with that. Mr. Immortal dies all the time, and he's still immortal."
You're disagreeing with yourself?

yeah Gideon, Crule and Absalom were my favorites...that's why Crule is my avatar
and it should mentioned that the ways in which they died were not ordinary...two died of the Legacy Virus, which would have been unaffected by their immortality since its that which makes them victim to it...and the others were drained of their life force, no one can survive that
