Let’s start with the
Mutant resistance
The guy up top is
Thuderbird so far his mutant powers are he has super strength, he can track
people over a certain distance using the bird tattoo on his arm, and super hearing.
He is basically the tracker for the group. He helps find the runaway mutants
and bring them into the resistance. Next is Polaris one of Magneto children (this
dude got around.) she has all the same powers as him. She shares some of his
disgust for non-mutants as well I’m curious if they will explore her
connection. Fox has stated it shares the same timeline with the movies so it
could happen.
The next is Blink she
is the most current member of the resistance she can create portals. So, she’s
going to be very important to the group.
And, last but not
least is their fearless leader Eclipse he hold the power of the sun in his
body. Think solar flares, he can shoot it out his fingers and is one hell of a
flashlight. His blood is made of light or heat from the sun.
And, now for the
family the father Reed Strucker who is a federal prosecutor for the government.
He puts mutants in jail. has the Stryker like vibe to him. He is the bad guy
turn good because, surprise, surprise his kids are mutants. Well the daughter
always knew of her powers she uses them without the knowledge of her family.
The son whose abilities were dormant until he was bullied one too many times. And
the mom who were thrown into the chaos trying to protect her kids.
Maybe it’s just me
but if both children are mutants then I’m guessing it came from one of the
parents. Meaning we have one more mutant in the family my money is on the dad.
He grew up resenting mutants and suppressed his abilities. One faithful school party the bullies decided
to have fun with Andy Strucker and drag him to the boy’s shower room this is
when his gifts of telekinesis and magnetism woke up. His character in the
comics has a shit load of powers we’ll see which one’s fox displays in the
series.
His sister Lauren
Strucker on the other hand have a Last air bender style of powers that’s right
she can control the elements. Now she has been using her powers for a while now
but for minor stuff, stealing out of vending machines and cheating at bowling
so she doesn’t know the extent of her gifts. After Andy destroys the shower
room and all the lights in the school the same people his father works for.
Sentinel Services (yup their here in small form.) Reed then reaches out to the Mutant
Resistance for safe passage for his family to Canada.
Now for the timeline.
We know it’s before Logan because mutants are still being born and not being
weeded out using chemicals in food and, being killed off. But, the X-Men and Brotherhood
are gone. Maybe most escaped to Eden by now or in hiding. Either way Xavier
vocal voice on behalf of mutants and the academy is gone. Magneto and the
brotherhood violent acts are gone. For now.
With only two shows
in this show is really good. I can’t wait to see where they take it. Will some
X-Men show up to help the resistance? Will the brotherhood show up and the resistance
have to fight them to save a non-mutant. I left a lot out because I want you to
check it out Fox and Marvel has a winner with The Gifted.
