365 Marvel Comics Paper Cut-Out SuperHeroes – One Hero, Every Day, All Year…
Supporting Character Supplemental – Callisto
The founder and frequently leader of The Morlocks. Possessing greatly enhanced physical senses and abilities as well as a rapid healing factor that has greatly elongated her lifespan. Callisto once lived a life of beauty, privilege and luxury but that all ended when her Mutant powers manifested and she was attacked by bigots who left her disfigured and blinded in one eye. Turning her back on human society, Callisto went on to found Morllock society.
Callisto discovered a vast network of abandoned tunnels running throughout the underground of New York City. She claimed these tunnels as a refuge for those Mutants who powers, appearances or other factors made it impossible for them to exist in human society. The community they created together came to be known as The Morlocks (based upon the subterranean race form H. G. Wells’ novel, The Time Machine).
As the leader of these Morlocks, Callisto has been a recurring alley and (at times) adversary of The X-Men. After abducting The Angel (whom Callisto saw as emblematic of those ‘beautiful Mutants’ who are able to assimilate into human society), Callisto ended up battling the X-Man, Storm, in one-on-one combat for leadership over the Morlocks. Storm triumphed yet allowed Callisto to stay on as the community’s leader. Oddly enough, this incident would prove to be the beginning of a very close friendship between Callisto and Storm.
Actress Dania Ramirez portrayed a version of Callisto in the Fox Films movie, X-3: X-Men United. The heroine first appeared in Uncanny X-Men Vol. 1 #169 (1983).
I thought Komaeda’s costume resembles serial killer more than a reaper haha.
+art from 2021 DR Halloween! Komaeda’s robe is big enough for two of them. And it is too long so it got stepped on a lot.. (intentionally or unintentionally)
