heres the thing I'm starting to dislike about Marvel, they have soo many different X-men titles that confuse the bejsus outta me. Back in the day when I collected comics as a kid, only Wolverine was a true product of Weapon X. In the new Ultimate Series, it's like everyone and anyone was part of the Weapon X project. IMO their killing the entire X-men series with all these off shoots, and altering of x-men history.
This is my impression of things:
📖 originally there was weapon x with wolvie, sabertooth, maverick, wraith silver fox, and wildchild I think.
📖 Then somewhere there was deadpool and kane.
📖 During morrisons run on x-men he sorta retconned it and called it weapon plus (wolvie was weapon 10, 10 in roman letters is X) where fantomex (weapon XIII), (probably) stepford cuckoos (weapon XIV), people named weapon XII (Huntsman), weapon XV (ultimaton).
📖There's also a new weapon x wichmainly consisted of criminals (others coersted) with power-boosts. The line-up included agent x (maverick), sauron, mesmero, marrow, kane, aurora, sabretooth, wildchild, madison jeffries, washout.
Phuh! Now I'm sleepy... 😖leep:

Yep well, Morrisons entire run was a bit... interesting, one sometimes wonders what he was on when he made certain things up. smoke The man reduced Hellfire club to a strip joint for gods sake disgust . It was cool and wow most of the time though (like emma and scott, talk about mixing it up)... eek2 😄
And his weapon plus consisted of making the ultimate soldier by mixing man and machine (see wolvie has a metal skeleton, clever of Morrison to think of that eh?) and the later versions had like I dunno evolved artificcially with sentinels in their blood or something so they're mutant/sentinels evolved into one being. ermm Well originally maybe that wasnt the idea and weapon 1 was cap america, 2 was like a fox or something, 3 like a special bear or whateva... weirdo... eer
FYI The cuckoo-thing was revealed in his last story "Here comes tomorrow".
It's all very confusing. A good read. But confusing. 🙂
