Gene Nation were the remnants of the Tunnelers, a little splinter group that believed in a more predatory relationship with the upworlders, more likely to steal or rob than scrounge.

Comprised of the remnants of the Morlocks known as the Tunnelers who survived the Morlock Massacre, Gene Nation was a radical group intent on paying back the 'upworlders'. They have largely disbanded, thanks to a leadership challenge won by Ororo Munroe.
Roster
- Berzerker - the leader of the original Tunnelers. Bezerker used them to steal food and supplies, until he finally moved them as a group back into the original tunnels. He is highly militant, and has organized the Morlocks along both aggressive lines and a strict philosophy which believes the upworld is a total pollution, which is why Sarah is now an outcast. Berzerker can create and control bursts of electricity, and is a skilled knife fighter. Berserker was ousted by Ororo and it is not known whether he remains part of the group.
- Erg - Another former Tunneler, a tall lanky man who projects concussive blasts from his eye. One side of his face is covered with scars and he wears an eye patch, presumably from injuries sustained during the Massacre.
- Brute - a hulking man with enhanced strength. He joined Gene Nation after the Massacre.
- miscellaneous unnamed mutants, largely homeless people who were drawn to Gene Nation's offer of safety and acceptance.
