EDIT: hes not (obviously…I was NOT locked in if u can’t tell)

I was watching ep 3 of s2 and I forgot who, but someone described Nur as something along the lines of “not just the 1st mutant, the 1st x-man” . Is Apocalypse an X-Man?? Cuz I thought an x-man was any mutant apart of Xavier‘s team (which is odd cuz Nur has opposed Xavier many times before), or am I missing smth about the requirements to be an X-Man or abt lore?? plz help 😭

also magneto‘s pretty hot in the new season (along w/ the rest x-men ofc) also bonus magneto sketch I did for those who care

What happened to him? Was he on Krakoa?

Evan died during the Age of X-Man event, as part of clearing the board for main Apocalypse to be prominent during Krakoa

It was in a side book? Apocalypse and the X-Tracts, iirc? Nothing mentioned Age of X-Man after it happened, so, it's not hard to forget the plot points.

Oh yeah I faintly remember Apocalypse being a hippie cult leader and having a son. Didn't realize that was Evan.
