Hellion recruits some other disgruntled mutants and outlines his own plan for a more public and more aggressive solution to the mutant problems currently plaguing San Francisco. What made Hellion a good ringleader for this group?
I think it fit his personality and there's the youth-in-revolt factor. He's not really one for strategy. He's okay with getting arrested just as long as a large numbers of people all over the world see it. He's an angry guy and doesn't like being told what to do, especially that he can't go outside because he's a mutant. Imagine being told you can't go out after dark because you've got brown hair.
So he's found that not everybody wants to passively resist wha's going on. He's definitely one of the more headstrong members of the younger X-Men. There's a reason why he's wearing the striped Quentin Quire sweater.
The collection of mutants with Hellion are interesting in that they include more notable mutants like Sunspot and Avalanche as well as characters nobody expected to see again -- like Adam X.
Things are getting F’ING EXTREME! [laughs]. It’s a complicated thing that’s going on. It transcends good, bad, and everything else, so it’s all able bodied hands on deck, whether that’s somebody great like Avalanche or Sunspot, or whether its somebody further down the totem pole like Adam X.
