The Nasty Boys

Details

---

The Nasty Boys are a group of mutant mercs-for-hire that Rory Campbell has been using to find and collect his subjects for testing in the Hounds process. They are well paid, amoral, and in one case, downright sociopathic.

The Nasty Boys consist of:

• "Gorgeous George" Blair, a mutant whose body is composed of an unspecified semi-solid, tar-like substance, possessing limited shape-shifting powers enabling him to elongate, inflate, or open holes into his body at will. He is Australian, and is the only one of his team with anything coming close to morals or a conscience.

• Michael "Hairbag" Suggs, who possesses superhuman strength, speed, agility, and resistance to injury, his body is covered in fur and sports several animalistic features.

• Patrick "Ramrod" Mahony, who can psionically control wood and plants. Irish. Frequently incomprehensible.

• Clement "Ruckus" Wilson, the field leader, possesses the mutant power to absorb ambient sounds, amplify them in his body and scream them back with great force.

• Christopher "Slab" Anderson, the team's resident powerhouse, able to increase his size and thereby boost his strength and durability. British and well-educated.

• Wipeout, a mutant with the ability to negate other mutants' abilities. Chubby and a complete sociopath.

Following the X-Men's intervention during Ahab, many of the Nasty Boys were apprehended. 'Gorgeous George' appeared to be blown up by Nathan Dayspring and quietly slipped away to pursue a slightly less amoral career in obscurity.
