in a sense, most of the super-heroes are mutants. their dna was mutated by various things. but yeah, when talking marvel characters you can't say "mutant" because it has a much more specific meaning.

the one i always got a kick out of was warlock being a mutant, but his only mutation was that he didn't have the bloodlust (or whatever you wanna call it) that the rest of his kind did.
