The Hero We Need

Gavok posted:

I'm currently writing a history article on Agent X, which means rereading the series, and the end of #7 is inadvertently sad in a hilarious way.

Simone does a six-issue intro arc built on her brief Deadpool run. In Agent X, she introduces Mary Zero, a mutant teen girl whose power is being unnoticed by everyone no matter what she does. She has a huge crush on Alex, mainly because he's the only person who can perceive her. She ends up helping him out to tie up a loose end, but otherwise doesn't really do much. Then in #7, with Taskmaster refusing to join Agency X and Outlaw having to leave town for a bit, Mary pops in to grab Alex by the arm and go, "You'll never be rid of me!"

And that's her last comic appearance ever.

Wonder if she's related to that "everyone forgets about me" mutant from the 2014-15 X-Force run? IIRC he shows up in another X-book, probably Wolverine and the X-Men because it happened at the school.
