History
Special Operation 16 - Apocalypse[]
Apocalypse uses Mr. Sinister, Sugar Man, and allies in the Hellfire club/Brotherhood of Evil Mutants to capture four of the X-Men to make into his Horsemen. He starts by sending Avalanche, Toad, and Living Pharoah to capture Beast and Rogue in New York. He then used Sinister to transport Beast to London and Rogue to San Francisco. In London, Selene, Avalanche, and Dragoness helped capture Iceman, while Living Monolith, Blob, and Toad ambushed X-23 in San Francisco. Apocalypse then sent his new Horsemen to test the populations of New York (Iceman/Death), London (Beast/Pestilence), Wakanda (X-23/War), and San Francisco (Rogue/Famine) to see if they were fit to survive. After the combined forces of the Avengers, SHIELD, and X-Men managed to defeat the Horsemen, the Horsemen withdrew to New York where the final confrontation with Apocalypse himself took place.Attributes
