Lifeguard

Lifeguard is a mutant hero introduced in the pages of Chris Claremont's X-Treme X-Men. Her mutant ability reactively adapts to save lives — her body automatically manifests whatever power is needed to rescue someone in immediate danger.

A Marvel hero who burst onto the scene in 2002's X-Treme X-Men — Chris Claremont and Salvador Larroca's bold, globe-trotting corner of the X-universe — Lifeguard is a Modern Age discovery whose debut issue carries genuine collector weight. With a handful of appearances spread across X-Treme X-Men, X-Men: Divided We Stand, and the encyclopedic Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: X-Men 2005, she's a compact but intriguing presence in Marvel's mutant tapestry. She shares her pages with the likes of Storm and Slipstream, putting her squarely in exciting company during one of the X-Men line's most adventurous eras. Rare enough to feel like a find, yet documented enough to reward the curious collector who loves diving into the deeper currents of the X-Men world.
