With the founding of the mutant nation of Krakoa, Alex joined his brother Scott in living at the Summer House in the Blue Area of the moon alongside the rest of the Summer's family, including his revived brother Vulcan. However, the traumas of the past several years have left Alex mentally unstable and a danger to others, resulting in him being placed on Mr. Sinister's ComicBook/Hellions, a team of mutants whose destructive or anti-social tendencies are being channeled for the good of Krakoa.

* AllThereInTheManual: His real name went unrevealed for over three ''decades'' before finally being revealed in the 2004 Official Marvel handbook, 36 years after the original Changeling died in ''X-Men'' #68.



* BequeathedPower: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] -- he got his PsychicPowers from Professor X in order to successfully impersonate him in his last days, but as it turned out Xavier was only ''pretending'' to be dying of cancer. See {{Retcon}} below.
* CameBackWrong: He was briefly resurrected by the voodoo villain Black Talon, but turned out to be a MinionWithAnFinEvil for him and was quickly returned to the grave.



* FlatCharacter: The original Changeling was just a groveling suckup villain ala Toad who was chosen to help Charles fake his death because it would be such an unexpected twist. Averted with the animated series Morph, whose characterization is explored after his return from death and in the third season which devoted a whole episode to him.



* HeelFaceTurn

to:

* HeelFaceTurnHeelFaceTurn: Turned on the Mutant Master after discovering it was actually an alien bent on worldwide genocide.
* HelmetsAreHardlyHeroic: In keeping with the spirit of golden age X-Men villains (see Magneto, Juggernaut, Avalanche, etc.) Changeling wore a truly wince-inducing helmet, seemingly molded in the image of his favorite seashell.
* HeroicSacrifice: While disguised as Professor



* PsychicPowers

to:

* PsychicPowersPsychicPowers: One of the main differences between Changeling and his counterparts (aside from atrocious fashion sense): Changeling has minor psychic powers, something no version of Morph has.
* {{Retcon}}: His HeroicSacrifice was implemented to facilitate one of these, bringing back Professor X after an earlier "reveal" that he was dying of cancer.



* SycophanticServant
* TricksterArchetype
* VoluntaryShapeshifting
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Both in the 616 universe and the '90s X-Men cartoon

to:

* SycophanticServant
SycophanticServant: He sucked up pretty hard to the Mutant Master before TheReveal that the Master was actually an alien. For a while there Changeling and Toad were in a kind of dead heat run for the most Renfield-like mutant in the Marvel U.
* TricksterArchetype
TricksterArchetype: The later versions of him as Morph tend to fall under this trope, the original Changeling himself not so
* VoluntaryShapeshifting
VoluntaryShapeshifting: A mainstay of all versions of this character. Interestingly, its efficacy has a clear progression: the original Changeling has the most basic form of this power, being only able to assume different human forms, while the animated Morph has a more functional version, being able to use it for {{Animorphism}} as well as some limited DittoFighter shenanigans via shapeshifting into mutants with physical mutations. Finally, the Exiles Morph has by far the most powerful version of this ability, being a RubberMan who can shape himself into inanimate objects and regenerate his own muscle mass at will.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Both In both in the 616 universe and the '90s X-Men cartooncartoon he was KilledOffForReal before his character could properly be explored at all. His adaptational counterpart got to come back, but he didn't and, shockingly in a medium that has completely embraced DeathIsCheap, he remained dead until the mutant nation Krakoa made [[DeathIsCheap death a non-issue for mutants]].

* CharacterDevelopment: Originally Mimic was a stock JerkJock who was only in the superhero game for his own self-interest and self-aggrandizement. As time went on, his self-aggrandizing was subjected to {{Flanderization}} and he became a pathetic AttentionWhore kind of figure, with his incredible powers completely overshadowed by his need for adulation. Then he got hit with a HumiliationConga that ended with him a prisoner of the Thunderbolts, and after a brief relapse in ''Dark X-Men'' he '''finally''' matured for real, and his tragic friendship with the tortured Michael Pointer a.k.a. Omega. His StoryBreakerPower and lack of popularity kept him a second-string character, though, and while he managed to narrowly dodge being KiledOffForReal, he's since been PutOnABus.

The leader of Factor 3 was revealed to be an alien and his organization turned on him and was disbanded. He secretly joined the X-Men and was killed shortly after his covert membership was revealed. Morph from the animated series was based on him.

The main universe version of Changeling had shapeshifting, and minor psychic powers. The Exiles version has more powerful shapeshifting powers.

copy the knowledge, physical attributes, skills, and superpowers of anyone near him for a short amount of time. He grew more and more conceited as he grew up and desired the ability to absorb power and knowledge personally. He sought out the X-Men to copy their powers so he could use them to activate a machine his father told him would make his powers permanent, when actually it was supposed to cure him of them. He returned to antagonize the X-Men, either fighting against them or temporarily joining them to show off. Because he was exposed to them for so long, he retains the powers of the original five X-Men permanently. Mimic is of note for being the X-Men's first new member as well as its first non-mutant (DependingOnTheWriter, they go back and forth on this). Unfortunately, he wasn't with the team for long due to his brash nature.

He appears as a
main character in ''ComicBook/{{Exiles}}'' in a somewhat reimagined form, being from a universe version of Changeling had shapeshifting, where he is without question a mutant and minor psychic powers. The Exiles joins the X-Men with good intentions (eventually becoming their leader). This version has more powerful shapeshifting powers.the ability to permanently absorb the powers of up to five people at a time, but has to "delete" old ones from his body to add new ones, and is usually used as TheLeader within the team's dynamic.

See ''Characters/{{Exiles}}'' for tropes specifically relating to Mimic in his ''Exiles'' incarnation.



* BackFromTheDead: After being dead for decades, he was one of the many mutants resurrected by the Five, a group of mutants that lived on the mutant island of Krakoa and that specialized in bring fallen mutants from the dead. He reappeared in issue #2 of [[ComicBook/XForce2019 X-Force]] as part of the [[ComicBook/DawnOfX Dawn Of X]] era.
* FaceHeelTurn: '90s Animated Series
* FunPersonified: Exiles and '90s Animated Series version

* MoreThanMindControl: How Morph was compelled to make the FaceHeelTurn in the '90s animated series

to:

* BackFromTheDead: TheAce: In the school, Calvin soon became the best at any sport, mimicking abilities of the best players and without anyone knowing.
* AllYourPowersCombined: He can copy anyone's powers as long as they're within a certain radius, but maintains the powers of the five founding X-Men (the ones he faced at the time) as a default.
** The Mimic from Exiles had slightly different abilities, able to duplicate indefinitely the powers of any superhuman he encountered, but [[DiscardAndDraw could only hold 5 power sets at a time]], and only at half-strength. When he was [[spoiler: turned into a Brood queen]], his powers increased to the extent that he could duplicate the powers of all nearby superhumans.
** Another reality's version of Mimic, with the same ability as the Exiles' version, had copied the abilities of Magneto, Professor X, Blink and Cannonball- the guy had definitely won the [[SuperpowerLottery superpower lottery]].[[note]]For those not familiar with Marvel Comics: this Mimic had Magneto's vast magnetic power, Professor X's telepathic abilities, Blink's teleportation powers, and Cannonball's FlyingBrick forcefield.[[/note]]
* AmbiguousDisorder: ''Dark X-Men'' retroactively gave him one, as it was established in that series that he had been suffering from UsefulNotes/BipolarDisorder for the past fifty years.
* AmbitionIsEvil: Portrayed this way in early appearances.
* AttentionWhore: Pre-CharacterDevelopment.
* BadassInDistress: In the lead-up to ''Extermination'' he was captured while shopping for groceries by a time-traveling younger version of Cable.
* CharacterDevelopment: Originally Mimic was a stock JerkJock who was only in the superhero game for his own self-interest and self-aggrandizement. As time went on, his self-aggrandizing was subjected to {{Flanderization}} and he became a pathetic AttentionWhore kind of figure, with his incredible powers completely overshadowed by his need for adulation. Then he got hit with a HumiliationConga that ended with him a prisoner of the Thunderbolts, and after a brief relapse in ''Dark X-Men'' he '''finally''' matured for real, and his tragic friendship with the tortured Michael Pointer a.k.a. Omega. His StoryBreakerPower and lack of popularity kept him a second-string character, though, and while he managed to narrowly dodge being KiledOffForReal, he's since been PutOnABus.
* ColdBloodedTorture: During the ''Operation: Zero Tolerance'' event he and Risque were captured and tortured by soldiers of OZT BigBad Bastion.
* ContinuitySnarl: Is Mimic a mutant or isn't he? It all depends on who you ask and when you ask it.[[note]]As of 2019 he's a mutant according to ''House of X''.[[/note]]
* DeathIsCheap: Back in the 70's he was KilledOffForReal in a HeroicSacrifice while fighting the Comicbook/IncredibleHulk. A decade later it was revealed that he had simply fallen into a coma, and when ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} came near him he subconsciously absorbed Wolvie's HealingFactor and revived. As of 2019 he's dead again, but considering his previous method of revival bringing him back should be easy when the writer comes along who wants to. And indeed, as of ComicBook/JonathanHickmansXMen (not even a year later!) Mimic is alive again.
* DePower: During the 90's Mimic was depowered along with all of Earth's mutants by a device built by the High Evolutionary, a strong piece of evidence for those fans in the "Mimic is a mutant" camp.
* HeCleansUpNicely: It took the intervention of Norman Osborn of all people, but after a decade of rocking the hobo look Mimic finally cleaned himself up in ''Dark X-Men'', and wouldn't you know, he pulled off squeaky-clean all-American just as well as his ''Exiles'' counterpart.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Over his long history he has battled the X-Men, the Hulk, Super-Adaptoid, Puppet Master and Factor Three, as well as serving ComicBook/{{Onslaught}} and briefly joining ComicBook/{{Excalibur}}. He was held prisoner by the ComicBook/{{Thunderbolts}} for his past crimes until being offered a place on ComicBook/NormanOsborn's Dark X-Men, in the genuine belief that he was becoming a Face. After receiving help from the Jean Grey's School X-Men, Calvin was offered a spot on their team which he accepted. He remained Face after, and ultimately sacrificed himself to protect Teen Cyclops.
* HeroicSacrifice: Once in the 70's and again in 2018's ''Extermination'' story.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: He continued working for Norman Osborn as a member of the Dark X-Men even after most of the other members of the team defected. Being a former villain himself, he desperately wanted to believe the best of Norman.
* HumiliationConga: These happen to him fairly regularly:
** After his first defeat at the hands of the X-Men, Professor X wiped his memories and sent him off to live what Chuck deemed to be an ordinary life.
** His capture and torture at the hands of ''Operation: Zero Tolerance'' agents also falls under this.
** As previously mentioned, he was captured and imprisoned for a time by the Thunderbolts.
**
After being dead for decades, captured by a deranged young incarnation of ComicBook/{{Cable}} he was one of the many mutants resurrected by the Five, a group of mutants chained up and his wings amputated so that lived on they could be grafted onto the mutant island young incarnation of Krakoa and that specialized in bring fallen mutants Angel (who acquired Celestial armor wings from the dead. Black Vortex that Young Cable also amputated, being on a ''Literature/{{Frankenstein}}'' kick). And then he gets a bridge dropped on him.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Ignobly killed with a harpoon to the heart by D-list 90's villain Ahab in the ''Extermination'' story.
* JerkJock: Particularly in his origin story and early on. Over time he gradually grew out of this attitude.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold:
He reappeared in issue #2 wasn't a very nice person early on and Professor X even denounced him as unworthy of [[ComicBook/XForce2019 X-Force]] being an X-Man due to his arrogance and recklessness, but as he matured Cal grew past his character flaws, becoming a devoted friend to Michael Pointer a.k.a. Omega, and after Professor X was deposed as leader of the X-Men he was even welcomed back to the team by Wolverine's X-Men faction. Ultimately he sacrificed himself to protect Professor X's first pupil, proving that Chuck couldn't have been more wrong about him.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: As
part of his rampant {{Superdickery}} through the [[ComicBook/DawnOfX Dawn Of X]] era.
Silver Age, Professor X wiped Cal's memory of being with the X-Men after he decided that Mimic wasn't working out. Unlike some of the Professor's other mental victims (hi Vanisher!), Mimic was able to eventually recover his memories thanks to an, uh, convenient explosion.
* FaceHeelTurn: '90s Animated Series
* FunPersonified: Exiles
MadOracle: While around Nate Grey the ComicBook/XMan he absorbed the power to see into the future. Specifically, he saw a BadFuture where he was married with a wife and '90s Animated Series version
child only to murder that child in a fit of PowerIncontinence.
* HeelFaceTurn
MoodSwinger: Justified, since he has bipolar disorder.
* KilledOffForReal: And aside OddFriendship: With Michael Pointer, which doubles as HeterosexualLifePartners. Also, more recently with Rogue.
** In the ComicBook/HouseOfM reality he has one with Bucky Barnes; the two work together on a black-ops squad and are on first name terms with each other, with Mimic even referring to Barnes by his "Buck" nickname.
* PhlebotinumOverload: He can absorb the powers of multiple mutants, but there is a limit to the number of powers he can absorb. During his stint as a Dark Avenger the X-Men were able to beat him by having a large number of students ZergRush him. He was also unable to fully mimic the power of the god-tier mutant Nate Grey, and much like Rogue's attempt to steal the power of Exodus, had to content himself with just one dollar
from one instance as an undead, the SuperpowerLottery winner's account instead.
* PowerCopying: Mimic can take on the powers of any mutant
he's never come back from around and his body altering itself to match (such as gaining Beast's physique and Angel's wings). Thanks to his time spent with the dead.
* MoreThanMindControl: How Morph was compelled to make the FaceHeelTurn
O5 X-Men, he's permanently copied their powers and, in the '90s animated series
case of Angel and Beast, physical attributes.
* PsychicPowers
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: He was already dying anyway, but
ProgressivelyPrettier: His attractiveness seems proportionately scaled to how villainous he died thwarting a subterranean king is in any particular storyline, going from destroying a bearded hobo-lookalike while with the world pretending Brotherhood to be Professor X.
looking like Warren's long lost twin brother in ''X-Men: Legacy''. And then there's the heroic ''Exiles'' Mimic who has a very clean-cut all-American look to him.
* RivalTurnedEvil: '90s Animated Series
PutOnABus: One of Marvel's many mutant bus passengers who have to hop aboard because their powers are too great to have around all the time. He's been in comas, prisons, you name it, and as of 2019 is MIA yet again after appearing to have made a HeroicSacrifice... until ''ComicBook/HouseOfX'' resurrects him, along with more or less every other mutant.
* SycophanticServant
* TricksterArchetype
* VoluntaryShapeshifting
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Both
SixthRanger: In another attempt to gain the X-Men's abilities, Mimic set his sights on joining their ranks, becoming deputy leader in the 616 universe process when he blackmailed his way into joining the X-Men.
* SmarterThanYouLook: He doesn't act like a very educated person and dresses like he's blind, but he's a college graduate
and the '90s X-Men cartoonson of a scientist.
* StoryBreakerPower: He's basically what Rogue would be if she didn't have to touch anyone to absorb their powers.
* TheAtoner: Often the result of his arrogant behavior and his feelings of remorse in the aftermath.
* ThoseTwoGuys: From ''Dark X-Men'' through ''X-Men Legacy'' he and Michael Pointer were inseparable. XML finally broke them up by way of putting the PowerIncontinence-suffering Pointer on ice.
* UnskilledButStrong: Often portrayed this way, as he missed out on the bulk of Charles Xavier's education but has an extraordinarily powerful and versatile mutation. In more recent years this has tapered off as he's acquired competence simply by virtue of being around as long as he has.
* UnwittingPawn: Of both Onslaught and Norman Osborn.

* AbortedArc: His romance with Janet van Dyne and his kidnapping of her after his inversion is never brought up after ''AXIS''.

After his personality was inverted he resigned from the Avengers and joined Cyclops' mutant faction.
* PowerIncontinence: The most obvious point of similarity with [[ComicBook/{{Cyclops}} his brother]].
* PragmaticHero: Is far more likely to kill than most of his teammates, particularly after he suffers a DespairEventHorizon.
* ReplacementGoldfish: For his adoptive parents' recently-dead son.
* TangledFamilyTree
* TwoFaced: While stopping Kang the Conqueror from absorbing the power of a Celestial, the left side of Alex's face was badly burned and left scarred. It remained that way for several years until Elixir healed him after his inversion to an evil personality was done in hopes of a fresh start.

With the founding of the mutant nation of Krakoa, Alex joined his brother Scott in living at the Summer House in the Blue Area of the moon alongside the rest of the Summer's family, including his revived brother Vulcan.
