Real Name: Warren Worthington III
Mutant Powers: Birdie wiiiings! ...And hollow bones so that he can fly easier, and really good eyesight.
Voice Actor: Mark Hildreth
Guest Appearances: "On Angel's Wings"; "Under Lock & Key"; "Ascension, Part 1"; and "Ascension, Part 2"
Back Story: Due to his rather obvious
Mutant powers, Warren mostly kept to himself, staying in his rich family's
apartment/home under a big trenchcoat to conceal his wings. He was eventually
inspired to help people after a local news report of a fire, in which he
flew to the scene and helped a disabled woman out of the burning building.
After a rescue gone wrong, though (involving Magneto), and after a following
save by Cyclops and Rogue, who met up with him, they convinced him to lay
low for a while, and keep out of the public eye. He refused to join the
X-Men, however- he wasn't very fond of the idea of living in the same building
as a bunch of other "freaks", heh.
He was thrown back into
the midst of things, though, when Mesmero hypnotized Gambit to steal one
of his family's prized artifacts, which turns out to be half of one of
the keys to the second door to Apocalypse. So he teamed up with the X-Men
for a short while on that adventure, too. Although it would appear in the
show that Warren is a young adult, probably in his 20s, he's referred to
in the X-M:E comics as a senior in high school... hrmm...
Personality: Warren's a pretty big introvert, rarely talking unless he has to. He also is very ashamed of his powers, and keeps himself mostly in isolation because of it. He's also a pretty crummy fighter, but this could just be because his powers are pretty weak when compared to most other Mutants', heheh...
Final Reflections: I really liked the Evo version of Angel, mostly because the writers did something completely new with him and never "rectifying" it to match the classic continuity. Angel never did join up with the X-Men, even though he would fight alongside them occasionally, and most likely he never will. Kudos to the writers for not caving into fanboy demand on that or turning him into Archangel or anything.
