Angel

While less known to most folks, Angel (also known as Archangel) first appeared well before Storm in the Marvel comic universe. In fact, he appeared in the very first X-Men comic, in 1963. A skilled combatant, Angel excels at aerial hand-to-hand (or wing-to-wing) combat.

Known as Angel and later as Archangel, is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics and is a founding member of the X-Men. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby, the character first appeared in The X-Men 1. He is the heir to a multibillion-dollar corporation called Worthington Industries. This privileged background results in Warren being stereotyped as a self-absorbed playboy during his early years with the X-Men.

A mutant and original member of the X-Men. Warren received his angelic wings at a tender age, as well as a unique healing factor in his blood. After being twisted into a weapon of Apocalypse, Warren became the cold Archangel. In the years since, he's gone back and forth between the two.

Here are a couple questions and answers from the new X-Men movie Apocalypse. He answers all the questions about how it was to be Angel and Archangel.

In this clip we see Warren breaking free from his father who is trying to "cure" him. This is where you can see how he has grown to love his mutant abilities. Then later he ends up saving his own father. This is the good Angel that was not shown in the new movie Apocalypse.

Warren Worthington III was born into an extremely rich family, but his comfortable life changed in his late teens when his mutant powers developed and he began to grow wings. Warren kept them hidden under his clothes and even wore a special harness that bound them down to his back to make them harder to notice.

Fox has been doing their best to leak tantalizing details into the production of X-Men Apocalypse but perhaps they should have only shown ONE of these images.

Singer confirmed Angels presence in X-Men: Apocalypse in an interview with Empire, adding that, as expected, actor Ben Hardy would be playing the role. Then, he threw in this little nugget of information that sent our minds racing. To back up this change of direction, Bryan Singer shared the following pieces of concept art for the newest version of this iconic X-Men character and yep, he looks a lot more like Archangel than he does the traditional Warren Worthington III.
