Wildchild in Year of the X-Men promo

[suzene]

Looks like the AOA version of Kyle, along with Sabretooth from that same era.

[Flightpath07]

yay!

[-K-M-]

Yeah it's the AoA characters battling X-Force. So definetly AoA Wild Child.

[rplass]

Unpossible! Wild Child is dead! I saw him die myself with my own four eyes!

Oh wait it's AoA Kyle. Neato!

[Tiberius Bane]

The last I remember Kyle was doing a Nosferatu impression and working for Weapon X. I know that all fell apart at the end of the series. I heard that he appeared again in Wolverine as a bad guy and looking mostly like he used to and was killed off. Was it ever explained why he went bad again? I liked Kyle as a good guy. I even liked him when he was in X-Factor.

[rplass]

He went bad when the whole improbable Romulus thing started. He resurfaced in Wolverine #53-55 with a new look and repowered (he lost his powers on M-Day) but no backstory was ever given, but you can assume Romulus was behind his evilness.

[Le Messor]

And like a bunch of other mutants with similar powers, he was revealed to be part of a half-dog race.
Like Feral, Sasquatch... ...

Also, isn't he dead at the moment?

[Flightpath07]

When he reappeared thanks to Romulus, he seemed to be more powerful than ever. He also was coating his claws with a nasty poison, capable of taking down Wolverine quite quickly with it.

It was SWEEEET!

Confirmation that he'll actually be in the storyline

The supporting cast of "The Dark Angel" saga will include the AoA incarnations of Sabretooth, Wild Child, Nightcrawler, Jean Grey, Magneto, Gambit and Rogue.

I wonder if it'll acknowledge Wildchild's time in the Exiles...

[mos_def]

wasnt Wildchild one of the four AoA XMen that went missing with the AoA Exodus? Ill have to search this. I know I have the AoA bio handbook somewhere

[Phil]

Yeah, that was the reason given for him not being in the 2005 miniseries.
It was explained in Exiles: Days Of Then & Now that he was taken away to join a new team of Exiles.

[Le Messor]

He also was coating his claws with a nasty poison...
It was SWEEEET!

You really shouldn't taste poison.
Mostly they're bitter anyway... was it digitalis?

Yeah, that was the reason given for him not being in the 2005 miniseries.
It was explained in Exiles: Days Of Then & Now that he was taken away to join a new team of Exiles.

Is that part of the main Exiles series? Or a side-mini-?
(Stops being lazy and checks his Exiles trades...)
Nope, not seeing it.

Willow: I mean, why else would she be acting like such a b-i-t-c-h?
Giles: Willow, I think we're a little too old to be spelling things out.
Xander: A "bitca"?

[Phil]

It was the oneshot used to end the first series.

I think it *may* be in the first trade of New Exiles.

[Le Messor]

I think it *may* be in the first trade of New Exiles.

But it's not yet April...

I only go as high as original Exiles myself, but I've been thinking of looking up the New.

[Phil]

To be fair as soon as Claremont came on to Vol.1 my enjoyment dramatically dropped and by #100 I loathed the title so didn't pick up New.
