Born with Autism (formerly classified as Asperger syndrome), Tyler B. Searle has been obsessed with storytelling since he was old enough to speak. He gravitated towards fairy tales, mythology, the fantasy genre, and animated movies and shows aimed at family audiences.
Within the Marvel universe, humans born with the X-Gene become mutants and develop an expansive range of superpowers when they hit puberty. Thus, mutants are feared and hated by humanity, with many becoming radical criminals to strike back at a world that openly rejects them. However, some mutants choose to use their powers to protect both their fellow mutants and humanity, such as the X-Men.
Waiting until X-Men: The Last Stand to make Kitty a team member was a good choice, as it allowed audiences to see her grow from a student to a superhero. Kitty adds youthful energy to the dynamic, and her unique powers lead to creative action scenes. She's at her best in The Last Stand, especially during the climax when she interacts with Jimmy , a young mutant being used to synthesize a mutant cure. In fact, she's among the few good things in what is probably the worst X-Men movie.
Beast's story is a strong tale of self-acceptance and using one's talent for the betterment of others. Despite his impressive strength, Hank prefers to solve problems diplomatically and approaches others with kindness and understanding. Both of his primary actors bring phenomenal performances: Hoult does a great job playing Beast in his younger, less confident years, while Emmy-winner Kelsey Grammer captures the self-confidence and wisdom that come with age.
6 Deadpool Played by Ryan Reynolds Following a dishonorable discharge from the Special Forces, Wade Wilson becomes a mercenary for hire, doing everything from assassinations to threatening stalkers. When he is diagnosed with terminal cancer, Wade partakes in an experimental treatment, which triggers his X-gene and grants him a healing factor but also disfigures his body.
4 Quicksilver Played by Evan Peters The illegitimate son of Magneto, Peter Maximoff , lives with his mother and two siblings in America. His mutant powers allow him to move and think at supersonic speeds, but he often uses them for juvenile pranks and thievery. In 1973, he is recruited to help break Magneto out of prison and later joins the X-Men in their battle against the ancient mutant, En Sabah Nur .
Magneto is one of the greatest comic-book villains for a reason, and the film version does a phenomenal job of capturing the complexity of the character. He's a fantastic antagonist because, while his actions are wrong, his logic is not, as humanity has a terrible history of demonizing and attacking that which doesn't fit the norm.
