Could Blade be classified as a mutant?

I know Blade was born Half-Human/Half-Vampire but since he was born with superpowers and an altered genetic code could he be called a mutant?

i don't think so... mutants generally have whats called the 'x' gene... so no, i dont think so, unless blade has it, which i doubt...

Finnaly a respons.......I guess your right. Any more opinions?

He's not a mutant for a half-vampire. Just another run-of-the-mill half-vampire. He'd be a mutant if vampires gained their powers by evolving from humans, but I'm pretty sure they didn't.

Okay then guess not.

No he is not a Mutant.
