This page covers the Marvel comicbook hero Synch also known as Ev' . If this is not the page you were looking for check here.

A mutant who is truly in-Synch with other mutants. Synch able to sync up with other mutants and use their powers as they were his own. Synch was a charter member of the junior mutant team, Generation X.

History

Synch was one of the original members of Generation X, headed by Banshee and Emma Frost. He met his untimely demise when the school had a bomb placed in it by Emma Frost's sister, Adrienne. Heroically, Synch search for the bomb using his teammates powers that he sync'd up with. He would find it but be too far from his team to properly use their powers. He would jump on the bomb and take the explosion himself dieing at the same time. His death would ensure the survivor of hundreds others. Following his death, the academy would be shut down and Generation X would disband going their separate ways.

Powers

Synch is a mutant who possesses an aura which allows him to be "in synch" with other mutants in his immediate vicinity, thereby gaining any powers they might possess (though it should be noted that he is unable to be "in synch" with people who have superhuman powers but are not mutants). The powers Synch "synchs" will fade some time after the superhuman with whom he is "in synch" leaves his vicinity. It has been theorized that, with practice, Synch will be able to permanently retain powers he has acquired.

Synch is also able to track other mutants by allowing his aura to lock on to the mutant's bio-signature. The aura will then extend in the general direction of the mutant's location.

When Synch uses his powers, a multi-colored aura of light appears around his body. This aura is caused by the energies he is absorbing splitting the ambient light around him, causing the described effect.

Alternate Realities

Earth #295
Age of Apocalypse

Although Sync does not physically appear in the Age of Apocalypse storyline, he is referred to. Before Jubilee (now known as Wondra) joined Gambit'sX-ternals, she befriended Synch and became good friends with him. Unfortunately like many mutants in this timeline he was killed was in battle with Apocalypse's agents. Its likely that he too would have joined the X-Ternals along with Jubilee had he lived.

By the time the AoA storyline had taken place Jubilee had already mourned his death.

Earth #811
Days of Future Past

Thanks to a mutant power dampening tech device created by Beast along with the mutant powers of Leech, Synch and his lover Jubilee (now known as Wondra) were alive and lived together in the ruins of Hollywood, California. Their living was partially in due to their lack in particiation in the invasion that the X-Men started and subsequently lost against the Sentinels at their base. Jubilee has felt guilt over he lack of participation and her friends deaths or incarcerations. As a result she along with Synch and Leech contacted and found Emma Frost and put together a rebel group including an anesiatic Wolverine, Amiko and Magneto. They planned to attack the sentienal base and save their surviving friends. There attack was never shown but it can assume that it ended badly. This is due to the fact that years later, Wolverine is shown working alone and Magneto was captured and in a wheelchair in the sentinal concentration camp.

Earth #58163
House of M


Synch in the Hellions.

In this re-envisioned/recreated version of Earth-616 world of Scarlet Witch, mutants are the majority and are in power and baseline humans are forced to live in hiding. Here the roles are very much the opposite of the mainstream Earth. Young mutants and their burgeoning mutant powers now have two options for their future schools and futures and mutants in society. They can either pick between the New Mutant Leadership Institute, ran by Xi'an Coy Mahn (Karma), where here they develop the future diplomats and leaders of the world, though they do not get combat training and tend to enroll mutants with passive powers. The other option is to join the SHIELD training program, ran bySebastian Shaw. It is here they have a more military training focusing on warfare and covert operations and enroll mutants with active battle ready powers. The training team is called the Hellions. This group included Scion (Earth-616's Hellion), Magik (Illyana Rasputin), Synch, Quill, Surge, Wind Dancer (now known as Renascence), Anole & Danielle Moonstar. Moonstar is a fully-fledged S.H.I.E.L.D. operative and is assigned to the training of the Hellions. Though she is the trainer she does participate in active battle with them. Her assistant trainers are the twin mutant siblingsAurora and Northstar.

In this reality Synch similarly sacrificed himself as he did in the mainstream reality to save others.

Creators

Synch was created by both Scott Lobdell and Chris Bachalo.
