Tike was one of the first members to join the new version of X-Force, a radically different brand of mutant super-heroes. Instead of hiding away in fear of humans, they were treated as celebrities. Sadly, the survival rate for the missions they took on is very low, and he was one of three that actually survived the first mission. Tike was good friends with [[Guy Smith (Earth-616)|Orphan]], and eventually began dating [[Dead Girl (Moonbeam) (Earth-616)|Dead Girl]].
 
   
 
The team was not prepared when the Orphan forced the team to accept Lunt, as Fanboy, as a new member.

Believing Bad Guy to be the Orphan, unhinged, X-Statix publicly denounced Bad Guy, named the Anarchist as X-Statix' leader, and devoted their activities to defeating the villain. In fact, Bad Guy was a creature from a pocket dimension visited by X-Statix' Venus Dee Milo, taking the form of Dee Milo's fears. The Orphan reappeared to help X-Statix defeat Bad Guy, and he rejoined the team while accepting the Alicar as the new leader.{{Citation}}

History

Tike Alicar was raised by Caucasian foster parents in the northern Midwest, but eventually he started to wonder why his skin was darker then theirs, so he began compulsively washing his hands to clean the "dirt" off. In this way he discovered his Mutant ability. His sweat is acidic, and allows him to generate energy of an unknown type. By the time he was an adult, he had created a fiercely African-American militant persona. He used this persona when applying for a position in the pop-culture mutant team X-Statix (then called X-Force.) He joined the team when one of its founding members was replaced after being killed in action. Alicar used his race and genetic edge to play his teammates against each other to help get the headlines and camera turned in his direction, becoming one of the more argumentative and divisive members of the team. At the same time, Alicar took care to keep the secret of the origins of his family and his obsessive-compulsive disorder, fearing that his standing on the highly-publicized team would be compromised.[citation needed]

During his time with X-Statix, Alicar had formed a relationship with Dead Girl after she saved his life on a mission. When yet another dispute over leadership and membership elections arose between Alicar and his teammate Orphan, Alicar left X-Statix with Dead Girl. Together, the two gathered more headlines touring as the Death & Anarchy Roadshow. However, Orphan later embarked on a highly dangerous mission by himself, and Alicar and Dead Girl rejoined the team to help him defeat the powerful mutant Arnie Lunt.[citation needed]

The team was not prepared when the Orphan forced the team to accept Lunt, as Fanboy, as a new member. In reality, the Orphan arranged events so that Lunt's weak heart would give out during a mission, surreptitiously planning his murder. Frustrated with himself and with the team, the Orphan quit X-Statix. Shortly afterward, a criminal calling himself Bad Guy began terrorizing America. Believing Bad Guy to be the Orphan, unhinged, X-Statix publicly denounced Bad Guy, named the Anarchist as X-Statix' leader, and devoted their activities to defeating the villain. In fact, Bad Guy was a creature from a pocket dimension visited by X-Statix' Venus Dee Milo, taking the form of Dee Milo's fears. The Orphan reappeared to help X-Statix defeat Bad Guy, and he rejoined the team while accepting the Alicar as the new leader.[citation needed]

When X-Statix was forced to accept the pop sensation Henrietta Hunter into their ranks, Alicar was among those who were incensed with the situation. He was especially upset with the public pressure to make Henrietta the team’s leader. With the Orphan’s suggestion, he allowed Henrietta to be named leader, knowing that she would grow disgusted with X-Statix’ milieu or die in the battlefield.[citation needed]

Henrietta’s European enemies decided to launch their next attack against X-Statix as a whole: leaking information that detailed how X-Statix’ owner, Spike Freeman, and U-Go Girl sold weapons of mass destruction to Saddam Hussein. X-Statix's public image was destroyed. The only way to repair their image was to take down Mister Code once and for all, and Alicar helped in defeating the villain.[citation needed]

Although X-Statix remained in the public eye for several months, things were never the same, especially since their prime source of financial backing, Spike Freeman, was dead. During the night of their farewell party, X-Statix agreed to take on one more mission, as it promised to be high-paying and low-risk. Alicar fought against going, because he noticed a change in Dead Girl’s condition. However, he agreed with the majority. When the mission turned sour, the ranks of X-Statix were decimated. Alicar was presumably killed alongside the Orphan, making a final stand against the villains.[citation needed]

Tike was recently resurrected to serve Pitiful One.[2] He later became a citizen of the mutant-only nation of Krakoa.[3]
