It's the holidays, so we thought we'd have some silly, pun-fueled fun here at ComicBook.com. As an alternative to "The 12 Days of Christmas," here's a countdown of 12 things related to Marvel's Merry Mutants for "The 12 Days of X(-Men)-Mas."
Yeah, we know it's silly, but cut us some slack. It's X-Mas.
Here's the countdown, beginning with "On the twelfth day of X-Mas, Professor Charles Xavier gave to me…"
12 Mutants To Destroy The World
Anyone else remember "The Twelve" storyline? With X-Men: Apocalypse coming up soon, we should probably reread that.
11 Madri Mutliplying
The abilities to duplicate yourself is always a handy skill during the holidays. Makes the cooking, cleaning, shopping, wrapping, and decorating all go by much more smoothly.
10 Guthrie Sibling
They're not all pictured here, but trust us, they exist, and half of them are mutants!
9 Dystopian Timelines
Cable and Bishop's respective futures, Days of Future Past, 2099, Age of Apocalypse, Here Comes Tomorrow, House of M, Old Man Logan, Age of X…the X-Men have ties to a lot of unpleasant timelines, none of which you really want to visit over holiday break.
8 Mutant-hunting Sentinels
Who invited these guys again?
And five of them are even watchable!
6 Teen Girl Sidekicks
Wolverine seems to get one for Christmas nearly every year, and none of them want to have to sit at the kids table.
5 Time-Displaced Originals
They won't be going home for Christmas, thanks to Beast. Worst. Gift. Ever.
4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse
The worst kind of Christmas party crashers.
3 Adamantium Claws
Great for carving a ham, or whatever other dead animal your eating. If you've got these claws, you've probably hunted and killed it yourself.
2 Identical Wives
And you think your family dinner conversation is awkward.
And a cosmic Phoenix Force entity to restart the species.
It doesn't fit it any kind of tree, but that's okay. #CyclopsWasRight.
Merry X-Mas.
