In response, he faked his own death and joined Norman Osborn's Thunderbolts for the sole purpose of finding an opponent capable of testing his skills. Mister X was the reigning champion of Madripoor's Annual Bloodsport Fight Tournament, but was bored of his riches and fame. After Wolverine succumbed to another berserker rage, X began losing his fight but was again saved by Blok and escaped. Both Mister X and Wolverine fought their way to the championship bout, during which Wolverine realized that X was a telepath who used his ability to anticipate an opponent's moves. Before his duel with Wolverine, Mister X managed to defeat the Taskmaster, who happened to be one of the most proficient fighters on the planet. X's rematch with Wolverine came weeks later when both entered the annual Bloodsport tournament on the island nation of Madripoor of which X was the reigning champion. Soon after, X secretly aided Wolverine against the clandestine Weapon X program, not wanting them to interfere in their fight. Feeling that the fight ended unfairly, X released the unconscious Wolverine with a note promising a rematch. The fight was interrupted by X's super-strong bodyguard Blok who, much to X's annoyance, knocked Wolverine unconscious. Enraged, Wolverine broke free and engaged X in a savage battle, losing control of himself in a berserker rage.

Subsequently defeating Wolverine himself, X sought his signature in order to achieve the title of 'The Best There Is,' then invited Wolverine to join him in a new murder avant-garde campaign. Wolverine Įventually, X learned of the mutant adventurer Wolverine and sent his operatives to test Wolverine's famed battle prowess. Destroying all records of his life, Mister X then vanished from public view to embark upon his next goal of slaying fighters who professed to being the best to prove himself as the superior fighter. In an effort to become the greatest killing machine in history, X traveled the globe to learn and train with various combat teachers, slaying each after surpassing their skills and scarring himself in a ritual fashion for each life he took. He slew his appalled parents shortly thereafter, beginning a life dedicated to the killing arts. He subsequently spent years attempting to recapture the thrill of that experience through other pursuits but finally sought out death again when he placed his pet dog in an oven. The experience triggered his latent telepathy, forming a bond with the dying woman.

Born into wealth, the man known only as Mister X became fascinated with death as a child when he saw a woman get hit by a car.
