Born to Scott and Madelyne Summers in Anchorage, Alaska. The couple seem perfectly happy and in love until…
Scott's former lover, Jean Grey, reappears after everyone thought she was dead, and Scott abandons his wife and child to be with Jean Grey.
Madelyne and Nathan are attacked by the Marauders. Madelyne is hospitalized and Nathan is kidnapped.
Originally intending to kill Nathan, Sinister decides to raise the baby as his own under the guise of Jack Milbury.
Cyclops, Jean Grey, Angel, Iceman, and the Beast sacrifice themselves to stop the Adversary from remaking the world. They are secretly resurrected by powers unknown.
Meanwhile Madelyne and the remaining X-Men search for Nathan. Madelyne grows close to her husband's brother, Alex.
Madelyne discovers that Scott and Jean are alive. Confronted with evidence of her husband's betrayal she lashes out at a computer screen, electrocuting herself.
While unconscious, Madelyne's mind is contacted by demons from Limbo. They promise her the power to seek revenge against Scott and Jean if she helps them escape to Earth. She agrees.
Madelyne's latent powers are activated and enhanced with demonic magic. She attempts to free the demons from Limbo as she promised but the X-Men stop her. Madelyne forces a mental bond with Jean Grey, attempting to kill Jean by willing herself to die. Jean survives somehow, but Madelyne dies.
Sinister sees an opportunity and reveals to the teenaged Nathan the truth about his parents — at least part of the truth. Nathan is filled with rage and with some mental probing from Sinister, he sets off to confront the X-Men.
Nathan kills Jean Grey but is whisked away by Sinister before the X-Men can retaliate. Sinister blocks the memory of the incident, using it as the foundation of a backdoor into Nathan's psyche. Over time, he uses the back door to build a subconscious trigger in Nathan's mind which would eventually allow him to turn Nathan into a completely obedient weapon.
Before Sinister is able to complete his work with Nathan, the boy vanishes.

God, I don't think I like comics anymore. I went to the store today, all excited about getting some awesome comics, and there was nothing but crap. To make matters worse, they're apparently putting X-23 in Astonishing X-Men; the only X-Men comic I even read anymore. I think I may be sick... yup, just threw up all over the keyboard. Great. Why do they have to add the single worst character in comics?
I used to like the Ultimate comics pretty well, but now they're really getting lazy. They don't even bother to keep the two universes different anymore except for major (often ridiculous) things like the new Colonel Agatha Harkness in the tight titty top and the mini skirt.
Alpha Flight made its appearance in Ultimate X-Men, which I would be happy about, except I hate Aurora, and apparently she can move 'faster than light'. Yeah, nice job remembering physics. Even the regular MU realizes that moving that fast inside an atmosphere would probably destroy it. And to top it off, they completely ignored Jean-Paul's original intro. So much for being the only son of the Canadian Ambassador. Now he 'ran away from Alpha Flight and is the property of the Canadian Government. Oh, and Colossus is a drug addict. Hurrah.

Brad Renfro died 7 days before Heath Ledger, but did anyone even know about it? Everyone's all up in arms over one but apparently don't even give a shit about the other. That really annoys me. It's like you're only worth something if you're famous. That's sort of a 'duh' statement, based on the way this country acts. Maybe it's because we don't have any useless royals to faun over like other countries.

I'm amazed at how much RP bad luck I've managed to cram into the last couple weeks. I joined two RPGs that both turned out to be horrible train wrecks and every game I've looked at recently has inspired fear and loathing.
I've also come across the absolutely worst Fantastic Four origin in all of existence. It goes a something like this: Johnny steals a vial of liquid from a sekrit government lab. This vial of liquid breaks in the company of the four characters. They get powers. I can't put into words how bafflingly horrible this origin is. What could this person have possibly been thinking?
