Ape-X (Xina) is a fictional character, owned by Marvel Comics, who exists in the universe of the Squadron Supreme.

Publication history

Ape-X first appeared in "Squadron Supreme" #5 (January 1986), and was created Mark Gruenwald.

The character subsequently appears in "Squadron Supreme" #6-12 (February-August 1986).

Ape-X appeared as part of the "Squadron Supreme" entry in the "Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Deluxe Edition" #12.

Fictional character biography

The ape originally known as Xina was the product of an enhancement of simian intelligence. When her trainer was slain, she turned to crime and eventually joined the Institute of Evil, becoming known as Ape-X.

When the Institute was defeated by the Squadron Supreme, Ape-X was behavior-modified and elected to full membership in the Squadron and fell in love with Tom Thumb. She later suffered from a psychotic withdrawal from reality, due to the behavior modification process. During a battle alongside the Squadron, Ape-X's mind was destroyed ["Squadron Supreme" #11] because of two conflicting behaviour orders, where Ape-X lapsed into a coma ["Squadron Supreme" #12]

Powers and abilities

Ape-X has human genius-level intelligence, and great mechanical aptitude. Ape-X’s legs and lower torso have been amputated, necessitating the use of her mobile platform for vehicular transportation.

Notes

Ape-X is analogous to the DC comics character Gorilla Grodd and/or The Ultra-Humanite.Fact|date=September 2007
