Meanstreak

Meanstreak is a member of the X-Men in Marvel's 2099 universe, a mutant speedster operating in a grim future America alongside teammates like Skullfire and Bloodhawk in a world where the X-Men's dream has been all but forgotten.

Born in the forward-thinking pages of Hero Premiere Edition #7 in 1993, Meanstreak is a Marvel creation of the Copper/Modern Age who found their true home in the bold, dystopian future of X-Men 2099. Ron Lim brought this character to life at a moment when Marvel was pushing its universe into thrilling new territory, and Meanstreak has kept remarkable company ever since — sharing adventures with the likes of Skullfire, Bloodhawk, and Timothy Fitzgerald across titles including Ravage 2099 and even the present-day X-Men: Blue. It's a testament to the character's staying power that a 1993 debut is still turning up in Marvel's catalog as recently as 2024 — proof that the future, it turns out, has a long memory.
