365 Marvel Comics Paper Cut-Out SuperHeroes - One Hero, Every Day, All Year…

Supporting Character Supplemental - The Stepford Cuckoos

After the confrontation with Trevor Fitzroy, Emma Frost was plunged into a coma for a year. During her unconscious state, Dr. John Sublime harvested over a thousand embryonic eggs from her ovaries for him to experiment upon.

The Weapon Plus program then used these eggs to create dozens of identical Mutant girls in the hope of developing a powerful weapon capable of killing every Mutant on Earth by combining their telepathic abilities. The project was designated Weapon XIV and the girls were incubated and artificially aged inside the subterranean level of The World. While most of these girls remained dormant, five were sent to infiltrate the Xavier Institute as student sisters to hone their talents for Sublime’s purpose. 

After the Xavier Institute went public, the quintuplet sisters (Sophie, Phoebe, Mindee, Celeste, and Esme) were enrolled. So to protect their secret origins, the girls unconsciously placed mental blocks in the minds of the faculty, preventing them from investigating their background.  The sisters themselves were largely unaware of their background nor ulterior  The quintette came to be known as the ‘Stepford Cuckoos’ (a play on the two science fiction novels, The Stepford Wives by Ira Levin and The Midwich Cuckoos by John Wyndham).   

With their significant telepathic powers, The Cuckoos quickly became prized pupils of Emma Frost (who was entirely unaware of their connections to one another).  The sister would go on to become an important part of the student body.  Sophie sacrificed herself to end the threat posed by The Omega Gang and Esme was later killed by Xorn.  The Five-in-One became the Three-in-One and it was not until the Warsong event that the Cuckoos ulterior programming became activated.  

The Phoenix Force had returned to earth, searching for a host as suitable as Jean Grey had once been.  The cosmic entity happened upon the psychic abilities of the Cuckoos and reached out to touch their minds.  This had the effect of activating the Weapons Plus nano-bots that had laid dormant within the girls’ psychology.  They traveled back to The World so to activate the Thousand-Who-Are-One protocol which would create a telepathic surge that kill every Mutant on earth.  With he aide of The X-Men, the Cuckoos were able to resist both Sublime and The Phoenix Force and they destroyed the hive mind, killing the remanning clones.   

Phoebe, Mindee and Celeste returned to the Xavier Institute and now began to show greater independence from one another and more distinct individual personalities.  

Sophie and Esme were resurrected by The Five following the establishment of Krakoa and the sisters were reunited.  They continue to serve the X-Men and Krakoa.  They additionally maintain a sometimes tumultuous mother/daughter relationship with Emma Frost.    

A version of The Stepford Cuckoos featured in the Fox television series, The Gifted, portrayed by actress Skyler Samuels.  The sister first appeared in the pages of New X-Men Vol. 1 #118 (2001).
