As I recall, Archangel completely snapped and is possessing the soul of Apocalypse.

[shadowpsykie]

yeah THAT i understand... it's his.... attitude now taht confuses me....

[icon_uk]

IIRC Holocaust was Apocalypse son in the AoA timeline.

[icon_uk]

At a guess, Apocalypse has a personality over-ride built into the components he implanted into Warren, and can take control of him when he's in Archangel form.

[shadowpsykie]

again, i get that... but THAT is not Apocalypse's personality... he's... eerily benevolent....

[biod]

Paternal Apocalypse FTW!
"France flambe!? My dearest son, I have never been prouder!"

[shadowpsykie]

its not even that! he calls henry McCoy his BROTHER.... i am thouroughly thrown by this....

[biod]

Patriarchal Apocalypse FTW then!

[sherkahn]

It's not Apocalypse himself living within Warren. Whatever alterations that Apocalypse made to Warren have come alive themselves as a separate individual entity, using Angel as a host.

Think Onslaught.

[shadowpsykie]

its creepy!

[drmcninja]

Its awesome! Death!Warren has a personality! And a damn good one too! Actually, normal Warren has personality beyond "There's a monster inside me!" Huzzah!

[sherkahn]

Beat me to it. I was just posting this.

[shadowpsykie]

heh yeah i noticed :D

[biod]

Never thought I'd say this, but Holocaust is ADORABLE in that page! He must be the cutest seven year old engine of destruction!

[shadowpsykie]

HE'S SEVEN?!?!?!

[biod]

That's the age I have in my mind.
He's probably older, though I doubt it's that much.

Marvel's sliding timeline. Autumn Rolfson became Famine in the original X-Factor series.

Recently in the latest volume of New Mutants they said that the Inferno (which happened around the same time as the first Apocalypse story in X-Factor) was about 4 years ago. So if we're going by that, then if Apocalypse had impregnated Autumn back then, Holocaust would only be about 4 years old.

[icon_uk]

Creepier yet was that Autumn was a very young teenager when she debuted. As a severe anorexic, she was perhaps smaller than her age should imply, but even so she was a very young girl.

Never mind the stress that a severe anorexic might well go through gaining weight thought pregnancy. That and the fact her power was to turn any organic matter she didn't want to deal with into dust leads to some fairly disturbing mental images.

Thanks for the Nightmare Fuel!

[stubbleupdate]

Didn't they rename this one to not be... Holocaust?

[biod]

The other alias I remember was Nemesis, but I always thought that was rather generic.

[stubbleupdate]

I think that people felt that the specificity of the name Holocaust was a problem.

[shadowpsykie]

Didn't magneto kill him? I'm pretty sure he did saying something along the lines of (and i am REALLY paraphrasing) "You have no idea what a Holocaust is...."

[salinea]

Really? That almost makes it worth the stupid name.

almost.

[biod]

No, Evil!Hyperion killed him in Exiles. Though Magneto may have kicked his ass at some point.

[biod]

And that was the Age of Apocalypse version we all know and. . . know.

[shadowpsykie]

my bad... maybe that's just what i wanted in my head....

[long_silence]

I don't think so. Holocaust killed a bunch of Acolytes including Rusty Collins, then he worked for Onslaught for a bit. And then he was sent back to the Age of Apocalypse. Eventually he joined the Exiles, and Hyperion killed him by inhaling him.

[long_silence]

I think this one is named Genocide.

[salinea]

That is so much better!

not.

[proteus_lives]

Famine,

Nice character callback.

[eyz]

He's...huh...Apocalypse??
tell me if I'm wrong!
