Publication history

[edit]

Synch first appeared in X-Men (vol. 2) #36 (September 1994), part of the "Phalanx Covenant" event, and was created by writer Fabian Nicieza and artist Andy Kubert.[2]

At the start of the Krakoan Age, as part of the Dawn of X relaunch of all X-Men related titles, Synch was brought back via the mutant resurrection protocols in House of X (2019) #6.[3][4][5] During Jonathan Hickman's X-Men (vol. 5) run in 2021, Synch goes on a mission into The Vault.[6][7] Synch then appeared, debuting in the Hellfire Gala (2021) during the Reign of X relaunch, on the first team roster for Gerry Duggan's X-Men (vol. 6) run.[8][9][10] He remained on the X-Men team through the rest of Duggan's run during the Destiny of X and Fall of X phases.[11][12][13]

Fictional character biography

[edit]

Generation X

[edit]
X-Men #36. Art by Andy Kubert.

Everett Thomas was born in St. Louis, Missouri. He was first introduced when the mechanical collective race known as the Phalanx had assimilated the X-Men and attempted to wipe out what was to be the next generation of mutant heroes: Husk, Jubilee, Monet, Skin, and Blink, all of whom, with the exception of Blink, would eventually become members of Generation X.[14] Synch synced with Banshee, who was in the area, to defend himself from the Phalanx. However, as a side effect, he shattered all the windows nearby, which drew the attention of the local police. Even as they surrounded him, a few officers had already been infected by the Phalanx and again tried to capture Everett. He was saved by Banshee and Sabretooth, and then quickly helped them prevent yet another Phalanx attack on the White Queen and Jubilee, who had helped locate Everett. The White Queen linked her mind with Everett's and Jubilee's, which allowed Everett to synch with Jubilee and use her powers to a degree she had been afraid to, defeating the Phalanx for the moment.[15]

This misfit band of heroes ended up saving the other kids who were captured by the Phalanx, and with the sacrifice of Blink, they escaped the menace.[16] Following this, the kids were all relocated to the Massachusetts Academy where they would train to use their powers, receive a formal education, and act as Generation X, the next generation of X-Men, on the side. They were soon joined by new recruits Chamber, who had been invited by Charles Xavier, and Penance, a former prisoner of the mutant Emplate who had been liberated by Gateway.[17]

Synch played a major role in many of Generation X's adventures, and was known for being both even-tempered and very resourceful in the growing use of his (and by extension, his teammates') powers. During one of Emplate's attacks, Synch fell under his thrall and became one of his vampire-like minions. This rendered most battle strategies against Synch useless, as he could use his teammates' powers against them without restraint, forcing them to employ more unconventional means.[18]

Unbeknownst to Synch, his interactions with his female teammates created a romantic undertone. His strong bond with Jubilee, in particular, eventually led to her developing deep feelings for him. Synch never seemed aware of this and apparently did not feel the same way, due largely to a crush on Monet.[19] For a time Synch was fixated on Gaia, who did initially seem just as interested in him.[20] Shortly before a battle where the team could have died, Synch admitted to Monet he regretted never having a first kiss. Monet (who was being impersonated by her sisters Nicole and Claudette, unknown to Synch at the time) agreed to share one with him, which clearly left quite an impression on him,[21] even once Nicole admitted the deception and the true Monet returned.[22] Synch later began dating the true Monet after she admitted her feelings for him, but their relationship would be cut short by tragedy.[23]

When Emma Frost's sister Adrienne Frost comes to America, she forces Emma to re-admit her back into the school. If not, Adrienne would release information to the parents of the normal students that the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters was a secret training ground for mutants. Later, Adrienne created mutant hatred amongst the human students in the school. When the parents of the non-mutant students heard that their children were going to school with mutants, they all rushed to take their children away from the academy, causing a riot. However, Adrienne had planted bombs all around the school. Banshee and Synch set out to deactivate all the bombs, while Emma and Adrienne brutally fought. Eventually, Emma pulled out a gun and shot Adrienne. Meanwhile, Banshee and Synch separated. Synch found a bomb and there were human students nearby. He synced with the nearest mutant, Monet. However, she was too far away, so he only received a portion of her powers, which was her super strength. Using all his might, he threw the human kids out of the room, saving them from the explosion. Unfortunately, he was not able to save himself, dying to save his human peers.[24]

Necrosha

Synch is later temporarily resurrected by means of the Transmode Virus to serve as part of Selene's army of deceased mutants. Under the control of Selene and Eli Bard, he takes part in the assault on the mutant nation of Utopia.[25]

Krakoan Age

[edit]

Synch on the textless variant cover of X-Men (Vol. 6) #7 by artists Russell Dauterman and Matt Wilson

During the Dawn of X phase, Synch was among the many mutants gathered on the island of Krakoa, after it was established as the new sovereign nation for mutants.[3][4] He was one of the earliest mutants brought back following the implementation of the mutant resurrection protocols because it was believed his power set could allow him to stand-in for any of The Five if needed. While physically he was fine, he struggled psychologically with reintegrating into a vastly changed world with peers who have moved on in life. Skin was brought back ahead of schedule to act as a companion for Synch and test if mutants from similar time periods should be brought back in clusters.[5][4][26]

Synch, along with Wolverine (Laura Kinney) and Darwin, were tasked by the X-Men to infiltrate a Children of the Vault base inside a Master Mold as only they have the powers to adapt to the changes needed to infiltrate the base security. The X-Men created a diversion to ensure that the three would be able to enter undetected, to which they succeeded. As soon as the three entered the Vault, they lost contact with the X-Men, and because time moved much quicker inside the Vault, the trio were stuck within for centuries.[6] Unbeknownst to those who were left outside the Vault, the three were immediately classified as unidentified subjects. During their first day, while engaging the Children of the Vault in battle, Wolverine and Synch killed most of their foes while Darwin's head got caught in a water bubble from Sangre. After seeing her teammates killed, Aguja angrily killed herself by projecting a force field that destroyed everything around her in an attempt to kill her foes.[27]

However, due to their unique powers, the three recovered and went on to survive as centuries went on, fighting different iterations of the Children of the Vault; Synch and Laura became close before developing a romantic relationship. Eventually, Darwin was captured and experimented upon by the Vault's artificial intelligence to create an evolved batch of the Children, forcing Laura to sacrifice herself to give Synch enough time to escape and reach Xavier. Outside of the Vault, Synch telepathically contacts Xavier and pass on all intelligence before he is killed; he is then resurrected with his memories intact. With her status in doubt, Laura was also revived by The Five but without her memories of her time inside the Vault or the relationship developed between herself and Synch.[6]

During the Reign of X phase, at the inaugural Hellfire Gala X-Men elections, both Synch and Laura are selected to join the team.[28][8] There are some awkward encounters between the two because Laura is aware of the missing memories and relationship Synch had with the original version of her; Synch decides to not use Jean Grey's abilities to share his Vault memories with Laura.[29][30] At the next Hellfire Gala, Synch decides to stay on the X-Men team while Laura decides to leave the team.[31] Meanwhile, Forge initiated a rescue mission to retrieve Darwin from the Vault.[32] During the rescue mission, Forge and a cloned copy of Caliban discover that Laura had survived the mission and was kept alive by the Children of the Vault. Forge takes the original Laura back to Krakoa, where she was reunited with Synch. Afterwards, the two move into the X-Men's Treehouse in New York City and resume their relationship.[6] This Laura, now going by Talon, also joined the main X-Men team. During the Destiny of X phase, Synch was forced to take Hope's place in The Five to resurrect her; while not as capable as Hope and done with great strain, Synch was able to get the vital job done.[33]

During the Fall of X phase, Synch and Talon would go on to lead the X-Men[34][35] while they were part of the mutant resistance following the attack on Krakoa by Orchis. Together they successfully steal technology to nullify Orchis' poisoned medicine from the High Evolutionary, however, he retaliates and disintegrates Talon's body. Synch then initially houses a psychic imprint of Talon's mind that he can communicate with but without a way to download it into a new body, there is no way to bring Talon back to life. The Talon in Synch's mind convinces him to let her go so that he has the power to fight Nimrod.[36][37][38][39] When Synch later teams up with Wolverine, they take a moment to grieve the loss of Talon.[40][41]

Powers and abilities

[edit]

Synch's mutant power equips him with a bio-energetic aura that allows him to duplicate the effect of the powers of any superpowered being in or out of his vicinity and sometimes the power itself, essentially becoming "in synch" with that person (or more specifically, their bio-energetic aura). When Synch uses his powers, a multicolored aura appears around his body, created by the energies he is absorbing splitting the ambient light around him. Synch seemingly had greater mastery of his mutant abilities than his peers, often displaying more control over whatever powers he copied than that person. For example, he was also able to utilize Chamber's powers to fly, something Chamber was never able to do. It had been theorized that in time, Synch would have been able to permanently retain any powers he acquired. However, he is not always able to synch with purely physical abilities or abilities that exceed his physical makeup. In House of M, he was able to retain powers permanently as a junior member of S.H.I.E.L.D. If Synch had not died, he could have become one of the most powerful mutants in the Marvel Universe.

After Synch's resurrection in Dawn of X, Cecilia Reyes noted that Synch's power no longer has a dormant and active state but that his Synchronistic field constantly seeks live connection to other power sets. Also, while before he seemed limited to mimicking only other mutants, he was found to now be able to copy powers from non-mutant sources as well.[42][43][44][39]

Relationships

[edit]

Laura Kinney

[edit]

During the Krakoan Age, Synch along with Laura and Darwin spent centuries in The Vault where Laura and Synch eventually developed a romantic relationship. Laura presumably dies after sacrificing herself to give Synch enough time to escape The Vault and reach Xavier. Laura was then revived by The Five without her memories of her time spent in The Vault with Synch.[45][7][46] It is later revealed that the original Laura was kept alive by the Children of the Vault when Forge goes to rescue Darwin. Synch and Laura are reunited and move into the X-Men's Treehouse in New York City together.[47][48] They join the X-Men roster with Laura now going by the codename Talon while Laura's younger duplicate, keeping the Wolverine codename, shifts to X-Force.[36][49] When the High Evolutionary disintegrates Talon's body, Synch is initially able to support and communicate with a psychic imprint of Talon's mind. However, this occurs after the fall of Krakoa, so there is no way to physically resurrect this version of Laura. Laura convinces Synch to relinquish the strain on his powers and let her imprint go so that he can fight Nimrod.[38][50][51][37] The characters were together for over 1000 years.[52]

Alex Schlesinger, for Screen Rant in 2022, called their reunion "a truly heartwarming one, with the intense and ancient love between Everett and Laura on full display, but because this is happening in an X-Men comic fans of the couple shouldn't get too hopeful, as the future of this tragic romance is still yet to be revealed".[48] Following the death of Talon's body in X-Men #30 (January 2024), Robert Wood of Screen Rant commented that "Synch and Laura's relationship has been filled with heartache and tragedy, and this final twist of the knife confirms things will get worse before they get better – if they ever do".[48] Jonathan Jones of AIPT highlighted the "ominous" use of The Lovers tarot card in the issue as Laura only remains alive as an imprint within Synch's mind – "The Lovers is a card of choice, sacrifices made for or at the cost of relationships; a test that impacts the partners' ability to remain in sync".[53] Jones, in his review of X-Men #31 for AIPT, felt the "emotional beats" of Laura and Synch's final conversation was a bit empty and that the creative team's focus was on addressing the problem of Talon's existence as a character.[13] Jones opined that the arc of their relationship "has ended for the time being, and in the end, it served no one, developed no one, and has not left a lasting impact on the story moving forward. On top of that, the majority of their romance before and after the Vault took place off-panel, making it even harder for readers to find a reason to care"; however, Jones was more positive about artist Phil Noto's portrayal of the characters in the issue as "even if readers don't especially care about Talon and Synch's relationship, the emotional subtleties in their faces are worth a look through. Everett's heartbreak hits even harder as he rises stone-faced against Nimrod while syncing Storm's powers".[13]

Reception

[edit]

In 2022, Entertainment Weekly ranked Synch 53rd in their "Let's rank every X-Man ever" list.[54]

Charles Pulliam-Moore, for Gizmodo in 2020, highlighted the spotlight on Synch's emotional state following his resurrection as unlike characters such as Jean Grey, "Synch hasn't spent most of his life living and dying and living again. Thus [Cecilia Reyes] believes what is hitting him hardest is to see the ways in which his contemporaries left him behind and have often gone on to deal with their own brushes with death that they've been able to overcome. [...] Coming back this way has to feel bittersweet—not just because it's taken his friends this long to even try a resurrection, but because making up for all that lost time is the sort of feat that not even he could manage".[5] He thought the "seemingly small details like this" are what makes "Dawn of X feel distinctly refreshing and fascinating".[5] Screen Rant, CBR and ComicBook.com noted that Synch's resurrection and time spent replicating the powers of Omega-level mutants would lead to the character having a huge power jump in the Krakoan Age.[55][56][57] Screen Rant highlighted that in Venom #14, Madelyne Pryor admits Synch "is the X-Men's 'most powerful member'".[55] CBR commented that changes in Synch's replication powers along with focused training have "taken Synch to the next level when it comes to his powers, allowing him to reach Omega-level powers as long as he's used an Omega-level mutant's power".[56] ComicBook.com commented that "evolving into an omega-level mutant would be a huge character development for Synch" and that "if Synch can truly master retaining different abilities he comes into close proximity with, then he has the potential to be one of the strongest mutants in the Marvel Universe".[57]

Brandon Zachary, for CBR in 2021, commented that the Krakoan Age has "has been a good one for plenty of underutilized mutant characters – but perhaps none more so than the roster of Generation X, who've increasingly been given bigger places within the mutant nation" such as Synch who has "been formally elected to the X-Men – where he's repeatedly proven his sheer potential".[10] Rob Bricken of Gizmodo called Synch one of the "more unexpected members" to join the main X-Men team and wondered if Synch "has ever been an 'official' X-Man before".[58] Jones, in his review of X-Men #34 for AIPT, opined that the penultimate issue reiterates how "this book remains the franchise's flagship title in name only, a feeling to which Synch ought to be able to sympathize with by now" and that while Synch is "the ostensible leader of the X-Men", his team is "either cleaning up loose ends or exiting the narrative altogether".[40] He highlighted "a nice moment grieving" between Synch and Wolverine who "have their first proper team-up since the loss of Talon [in X-Men #31], and Everett and Laura remain very respectful about the wild circumstances around their relationship".[40] Jamie Lovett of ComicBook.com similarly commented that "the issue does bring some closure to the Synch/Talon/Wolverine situation that has been at the heart of the book, but with even the considerable artistic talent involved struggling to make something out of what little the script has to offer, X-Men #34 feels like the tail-end of a story stretched too thin".[41]

Other versions

[edit]

Age of Apocalypse

[edit]

In the Age of Apocalypse, Synch was one of the many mutants killed in the war with Apocalypse. His death motivated Jubilee to join Gambit's band of mutant thieves, the X-Ternals.[59]

Days of Future Past

[edit]

In the Days of Future Past timeline, Everett became Jubilee's lover, and aided her along with the X-Men of that time to rebel against their oppressors.[volume & issue needed][60]

House of M

[edit]

In the House of M timeline, Synch was alive and a member of the junior S.H.I.E.L.D. division called "The Hellions", but was later killed during a battle with an alternate version of the Hellions, the New Mutants, and a Japan-based human resistance group founded by an alternate version of Laurie Garrison (Wallflower).[61]

Rise of the Powers of X

[edit]

A future version of Synch appears in Rise of the Powers of X (January 2024), by writer Kieron Gillen and artist R.B. Silva. Set ten years into an alternate future where Orchis is victorious against mutantkind, Synch leads a small group of survivors and is now known as the Professor. Synch has prematurely aged due to the strain of replicating powers by memory instead of limiting himself to replicating powers in his proximity.[62][51][63] Tristan Benns of Screen Rant commented that "weakened by the containment of his tremendous powers, this timeline's variant Everett Thomas is confined to a hoverchair resembling Xavier's iconic chair from the Mutant Genesis era. Although this timeline is ultimately averted as part of Xavier's experiments with the Moira Engine, Synch's potential as Charles' replacement remains undeniable".[63] Benns called him "a rising star" of the Krakoan Age "with his inclusion in the lineup for the flagship X-Team raising his profile to incredible new heights. As such, seeing Synch finally replace Professor X as leader of the X-Men would ultimately be the culmination of this tumultuous character arc".[63]
