New Mutants Poster # 1 Bob McLeod Cannonball Uncanny Avengers

Description

Mirage, Cannonball, Karma, Wolfsbane and Sunspot! The New Mutants were teenaged students of Professor Charles Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters, much like the original X-Men, who had since grown into adulthood. These students, however, rather resembled the “All-New, All-Different X-Men” in terms of ethnic diversity. The original team consisted of: Karma (Xi’an Coy Manh), a 19-year-old Vietnamese girl and the team’s original leader, who could mentally possess other people’s bodies. Wolfsbane (Rahne Sinclair), a Scot who could transform into a wolf-like creature. Mirage (Danielle Moonstar, originally codenamed Psyche), a Cheyenne and eventual co-leader after Karma’s “death,” who could create visual empathic three-dimensional illusions. Sunspot (Roberto da Costa), a Brazilian who gained superhuman strength fueled by sunlight and could store solar energy in his body to use his super strength during the night. Cannonball (Samuel Guthrie), a mild-mannered Kentuckian and eventual co-leader, who became nigh-invulnerable when rocketing through the air.
