Erg

Erg is a mutant who dwells in the Morlock tunnels beneath New York City, first encountered when the young heroes of Power Pack ventured into the underground community of outcast mutants known as the Morlocks.

Born in the fertile creative partnership of Louise Simonson and June Brigman, Erg made his Marvel debut in Power Pack #12 in 1985 — a Bronze Age arrival who carved out a quiet but persistent niche in the mutant corners of the Marvel Universe. Over nearly four decades, he's kept genuinely distinguished company, sharing pages with the likes of Cyclops, Beast, and Leech, and turning up most prominently in X-Men: The 198 and Civil War: X-Men — titles that placed him squarely at the heart of some of Marvel's most politically charged mutant storytelling. With 22 catalog appearances and a key issue to his name, Erg is exactly the kind of figure that rewards the dedicated reader: not a headliner, but a recurring, lived-in presence who helps give the margins of the X-Men's world their texture and depth.
