live with fruit posted:Does he look like Chameleon in the comics as well? Kind of? Morph in the comics was pretty much a non-character in the 60's OG X-Men run named "Changeling." He wore a weird purple Galactus hat, had a couple of villainous outings against the X-Men, then had a face-turn where he impersonated Professor X and died while Prof was out in space or some other bs. When the 92 show started, he was put in the team as a red shirt to die in the first ep and establish there were stakes (which were of course undone not long after). Back in the comics, "Changeling" was long forgotten (and his name's copyright was taken up by DC Comics for a brief rename of Beast Boy in the 80s), but was brought back as "Morph" in the Age of Apocalypse crossover. This is where the "Chameleon" look comes from, and a few years later they brought the character back, albeit from another dimension and with a personality more in-line with the 92 show, for the Exiles run of comics. This Morph is a beloved C-lister who has bopped around in various Exiles-related runs, though they have yet to return to any sort of main-line run of X-Men books. Here's a primer on Exiles Morph. There's also a "new/young Morph" that was introduced in the last decade or so, but this version is a big ol' nothing who mostly looks like his 92 counterpart. 97 Morph is like a mishmash of the Exiles Morph in their appearance and powerset (waiting for Morph to get blasted into goo and reform; Exiles Morph was pretty much made of invincible playdoh), but with added PTSD from his heel run in Sinister's crew. edit: Just watched this week's ep, Morph got blasted into goo and will probably be OK, so I guess I don't have to wait anymore!
