Master Mutant Rankings
These master rankings are the truth, passed down by Chris Claremont himself. There is no room for arguments, no room for disagreement. It is the definitive ranking of the X-Universe. This is not a quantitative measurement, there is no cumulative score, and there never will be. Factors such as uniqueness, historical significance, feats of power, nostalgia, and the ever important how-excited-would-we-be-to-see-them factor are all counted, but the whole is not dependent on the sum of its parts. There are a lot of great characters in X-Men, so just because someone is below the halfway mark doesn’t mean they’re bad; that doesn’t really start until Northstar shows up. So why don’t you sit back and pick a couple of your favorite children of the atom?
