Mammomax is a fictional mammoth-shaped human and a supervillain mutant appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
Publication history[edit]
Mammomax first appeared in X-Men vol. 2 #161 (November, 2004), and was created by writer Chuck Austen and artist Salvador Larroca.
Fictional character biography[edit]
When Mammomax first appeared, he was part of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants alongside Avalanche, Sabretooth, Exodus, Juggernaut, Nocturne, and Black Tom Cassidy. He participated in an attack on the X-Mansion, which caused massive property damage and the deaths of at least two of its residents.[volume & issue needed]
Iceman defeated him. The entire Brotherhood ended up sucked into the black hole within Xorn's head,[volume & issue needed] which apparently leads to the Mojoverse. The Brotherhood bargained with Mojo, apparently giving him Juggernaut and Nocturne in price for their freedom.[volume & issue needed]
Mammomax next appears after M-Day, on the run from members of the Sapien League with Erg and Peepers.[1] At the Institute's front gates, the X-Men save him from being burned alive.[volume & issue needed] He took up residence on the Institute's grounds with other members of the 198. During an outing into Salem Center, he attacks a boy for calling him "Elephant Man", but a "tracking chip", implanted in his head by the Office of National Emergency (O*N*E), disables him before he could do any damage.[2] Mammomax has the device removed by Mister M. The other members of the 198 also have their chips neutralized.[3] Mammomax follows Mr. M during his exodus from the Xavier Institute.[3] He eventually rejoins the Brotherhood.[4]
Mammomax was later captured by the Facility, the Weapon Plus offshoot that was responsible for the creation of X-23. He is used as a test subject for a monster created by the Facility staff. Predator X consumes and kills him.[5] A picture of his skeleton is shown to Mercury, who had also been taken by the organization.[4]
Powers and abilities[edit]
Mammomax resembles a bipedal elephant with hands, because of this he is as strong as an elephant and also possess a pair of large ivory tusks which are as durable as an elephant's. Mammomax has invulnerable skin and can also produce a powerful stomach acid, which he can spit out of his mouth and use as a projectile attack.
