This picture speaks for itself! I feel like this is going to either be really good or really bad. Maybe another AOA type story? Who knows but this picture below is leaning towards Hellion having a TK hand! Who might all the shadowed characters be? I know Hope will be one for sure. I want the one with wings to be Dragoness, she is one crazy person!
Who do you want to see in the AGE OF X?
Hellion
Character » Hellion appears in 1276 issues.
Hellion is a powerful mutant telekinetic. He was a student at the Xavier Institute, leader of the Hellions squad and Emma Frost's prize pupil. Hellion lost his hands during Second Coming, received cybernetic replacements, and is currently enrolled at the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning.
Age of X!
i just saw this! I am so stoked by the redesigns! Gambits got that Solid Snake going on and Hellion looks like hes ready to mess Sh!@ up! My guesses as to who are blacked out are Pixie, Aurora, Northstar, danger, bishop?(I mean who else currently uses guns other than Cable: Dead r.i.p., and Hope), Cannonball, and Exodus?(He's got that thingy going on with his costume but i cant think as to a good reason he would be working with the x men, maybe to be closer too Magneto? I think some personal favorites I would like too see but know they are probably a longshot are Sunfire, Warpath, Omega Sentinel, regardless I gonna get this,
Young man, there's no need to feel down.
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.
I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy.
Young man, there's a place you can go.
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough.
You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time.
It's fun to stay at the Y X-M C A...!

SO the new ones are "Berserker" and "Nightmare" (assuming the winged lady is Nightmare). Looks like warpath will be Berserker and is Gambit holding a rifle in his right hand?
Hellion does need a shirt, however.

No, he has not, but he's only been featured in House of M and the other one in Academy X, I believe.
He had his hands in Wolverine and the X-Men.

I thought hellion lost his hands, from this pick it looks like he's cut off at the bicep... and it's still bandaged up. I wouldnt be surprised if this an alternate universe but I would be disappointed
" I thought hellion lost his hands, from this pick it looks like he's cut off at the bicep... and it's still bandaged up."Correct. He ONLY lost his hands, yet in this promo the stump is just short of his shoulder. There's a massive gap between his stumpy-upper arm & the TK floating hand. We also can't see if he has a left arm at all. And Earth-616 Hellion had problems controlling objects smaller than a refrigerator with his powers...
If he's only got one arm, then it's gonna be seriously hard for him to dance along to the Village People...
I think that Berzerker is supposed to be the winged girl, but she was once known as Scaleface, both brought back during Necrosha. As for Nightmare I am guessing that is Thunderbird from the same series.
my second guess is that Age of X is about mutants that have all been to HELL and back. Not died, but have been all going through some hellish times. Hellion gets the short end of the stick in every story, Thunderbird, Scaleface and Berzerker all died, and Gambit is Death. I wouldnt be shocked if pixie, or one of the dead cuckoos shows up. I like how this is shaping up to be a good story!
these are just my thoughts and ideas of what Age Of X could amount to.
" I think that Berzerker is supposed to be the winged girl, but she was once known as Scaleface, both brought back during Necrosha."I really like that theory, but Berzerker was Scaleface's boyfriend. She could transform into a dragon-esque croc-agator. So becoming a pink bat-winged cutie seems a little far-fetched for the dead morlock :(
oh and its ok for hank pym to take the name of his dead lover, The Wasp, but not ok for Scaleface to? I also think her power is much like Dragonwing or Evangeline Whedon. Maybe she only gave herself the wings and a pinkish makeover. That would be pretty awesome if you ask me. We lack any Morlocks on Utpoia except Litterbug, and he was part of the Chicago Morlocks.
Who is to say that the ping-dragon winged girl/woman isn't Pixie? She did have demonic wings in that mirror that showed her what she'd look like without her soul.
Just throwing it out there.
WOOOO! HELLION RULES! It's a shame I'm now boycotting Marvel as of about 30 minutes ago, because I love Hellion and really wanted to read this.
Actually judging by the metal in the background I think it's safe to say either Lorna or Magneto is involved.
That Nightmare chick kinda of reminds me of Dragoness
Looks like its: Hellion, Gambit, Rogue, Magneto, Cannonball, Frenzy, Warpath or Thunderbird, Demonized Pixie, and Hope/Jean/Rachel
There are 2 or 3 other Age of X threads. Please keep this one to talk about Hellion only (since this is in the Hellion forum).
Mike gave an interview over on CBR about Age of X and how its a world were and i quote: " in a world that has never known the X-Men, in which the X-Men never came together as a team".
So we as members of the Hellion Nation( a term i have coined over on CBR, come join us to spread the awesomeness that is Hellion) should start wondering how does our boy Hellion fit into this world/story? How big of an effect will he have? Who will he be spending most of his screen time with?
Hellion Nation... Love the sound of that! lol
As far as Age of X is concerned looks like all we know about Hellion is going to be thrown out the window. This will be a world where "mutants came into their own without other mutants." So I can't wait to see how this will work for Hellion. No Frost, No Hellions, No New X-Men?
Of course this may scare the few die hard Helix fans: "Both also hinted that this leads to "all bets [being] off" when it comes to personal relationships. Since this will be the first time many of these characters meet within an entirely new context, it allows for different types of friendships and relationships forming."
Sooo since I havent seen X-23 in any cover art, maybe she won't exist in Age of X? Can't say I'm too sad though. I've often felt that X-23 held back Hellion's development in some ways (keep in mind that I am a fan of the pairing) but I'm hoping we get to see a cool alternate version of Hellion here. And hey, if he does have ties with other female characters here... It isn't exactly cheating seeing as how its an alternaverse Hellion not the main man of the 616! ;D
Indeed. I'm also interested to see how AoX ties in with 616 and what AoX Hellion means for his 616 counterpart.
Next question points out that Hellion is missing limbs in the Age of X teaser as well. Carey says there was a similar event that happened to him in this reality, but he's been used to his situation for longer than his 616 counterpart. Ketchum adds that it's "more important to what it means for his future in the Marvel Universe."
As we can see from this interview snippet that AoX might have a major impact on 616.
As for X-23, it hard to say if she'll appear or not. We don't even know if Wolverine will be in it, let alone her. Its going to be interesting to see him forge new relationships with the other characters.
Well I think this version of hellion looks cool using his tk to manipulate his artifical hands.Lets just hope that the 616 version learns to do that.
"Well I think this version of hellion looks cool using his tk to manipulate his artifical hands.Lets just hope that the 616 version learns to do that. "
Yeah, hopefully Carey is planning something that will give him some finer control in regular continuity as well. Still... I can't help but wonder what happened to AoX Hellion to lose his whole arms... the poor love :(
" Personally I'm hoping for some broody back-story about being tortured when he was younger. Making him what he is now, a TOTAL BAD ASS survivor. >:) "Like.
" @Alaric said:Ditto! Only thing I don't like about this universe is...no X-23! Blah! But I know not everyone wants that ;-) so it's still looking pretty good!" Personally I'm hoping for some broody back-story about being tortured when he was younger. Making him what he is now, a TOTAL BAD ASS survivor. >:) "Like. "
"I'm fairly sure the shirtless look is a form of fan service. lol"
Yes, but not for the girls...
Interesting thought. I'd wanna bring in Rogue, Magik, Anole, Forge, Empath, Darwin, and maybe Random. Is he still alive? I'd throw in Emma Frost, but she's probably too busy as it is. Wouldn't mind seeing Husk again, but every time she's even mentioned I'm filled with dread at the inevitable reunion of her and Decibel. Uuugh.
While I'm super excited to see Hellion in AoX I'm also not a fan of the shirtless look
Although...if the X-Men didn't exist he technically shouldn't be named Hellion since he got it from Emma and they were her former students...
@Squares:
Aw, why filled with dread?
I like Chamber (since Chamber's cooler than Decible) and Husk

No-one really seems to have picked up on the little info we have on AoX Hellion so far:
Hellion has had longer to work with his artificial arms in "Age of X," but Ketchum said that this is less important in the crossover than what this means for the regular X-Men universe.
Marvel's Next Big Thing: "Age Of X"
So... when & how did he lose his arms in this slightly different universe?

So excited for it! I hated them at first but the TK/armor arms are starting to grow on me. Slowly
