The Mutant Liberation Front
The Mutant Liberation Front is a team created
by the time-traveling terrorist Stryfe.
Gathered from all over the world, these young mutants
were coerced, cajoled, and connived into joining the
group and standing for its ideals. Their mission is to lash
out at Homo Sapiens in the name of Homo Superiors
around the globe. Their methods are violent and
extreme. Only the combined might of Xavier’s teams
was able to put a stop to them.
After the defeat of the first group, a mysterious mutant,
Reignfire, freed four former members from captivity.
Reaper, Forearm, Tempo, and Wildside, under the
leadership of Reignfire, mounted new and even more
violent attacks on humanity, most notably, the
kidnapping of Henry Peter Gyrich. The Mutant
Liberation Front held Gyrich as a prisoner of war until
Cable and X-Force, rescued him.
They succeeded in their mission, but it cost them
Roberto DaCosta, their teammate known as Sunspot.
Some months later, Reignfire returned to battle X-Force
and revealed himself to be their missing teammate,
Sunspot. With the intervention of Cable, Roberto’s
Reignfire persona was integrated into his normal psyche,
and Sunspot returned to X-Force.
