Apocalypse


APOCALYPSE

ApocalypseAn immortal mutant born into slavery in ancient Egypt, Apocalypse has lived for centuries by the motto ‘Survival of the Fittest’. Time and again, he has implored his Celestial technology and henchmen called the Four Horsemen to carry out his twisted plots. Apocalypse’s mutation gives him complete mastery over the molecular structure of his body, in turn endowing him with a myriad of abilities that make him nearly invincible.

 


DARK RIDERS

Dark RidersA more recent addition to Apocalypse’s arsenal, the original Dark Riders awakened their master when the madman Stryfe resurfaced and tried to assassinate Charles Xavier. The Riders ended up betraying their master and siding with Stryfe, then struck out on their own after their third leader, Genesis, was killed. The new Dark Riders are small but effective, consisting of Dani Moonstar, Tusk, and Trial.

 


FOUR HORSEMEN

Four HorsemenThroughout time, the Four Horsemen have been the heralds of Apocalypse, settingPestilence, Famine, War, and Death upon the world and culling the weak from the strong. Their roster is ever-changing, having once included the X-Man Archangel and the Morlock Caliban. The four mutants currently serving in these roles are Omega Red,Black Tom, Sabretooth, and Threnody.
