After the movie Doctor Strange: In the Multiverse of Madness, finally, we are shown an important character in the MCU, namely Professor X. But unfortunately, the character of Professor X has to be killed by Wanda / Scarlet Witch in this film.

Professor X is a character who has an important role, he is the leader of the Mutant nation and has the power of Telepathy. After he died in Doctor Strange: In the Multiverse of Madness, attention now turns to his son and successor, Legion.

Regarding this, Wowkia will discuss a little about the Legion Marvel characters starting from their origins, powers, and weaknesses.

Legion Origins

Legion is a character created by writer Chris Claremont and artist Bill Sienkiewicz. Legion first appeared in Marvel Comic New Mutants #25 (March 1985). His real name is David Haller, and he’s the son of Charles Xavier and Gabrielle Haller.

Unlike his parents, David prefers to take on the role of an antihero because he has the same mental illness like Marc Spector (Moon Knight). That is one form of dissociative identity disorder, better known as dissociative identity disorder (DID).

As a child, David lived in Paris with his mother, a member of the Israeli diplomatic service. But tragedy struck, a group robbed his house of terrorists who killed Israeli citizens.

The robbers killed every Israeli they met there. Before their very eyes, they even killed David’s stepfather (Daniel Shomron) and David’s mother. Instantly David’s latent telepathic power was activated. He could feel the horror that the slain people felt around him. After the incident, David was hospitalized, and his mental condition began to become unstable.

David’s mother initially hid the fact that she was the son of Professor X. However, David was able to find out for himself that he was Professor X’s son. Knowing this fact, David began to learn about his potential strength which turned out to be superhuman strength.

Power and Abilities

Legion is an Omega Grade mutant with the ability to create spontaneous mutations with various attributes. Because of his extraordinary strength but because he suffers from dissociative identity disorder (DID). David has various strengths for each of his personalities.

David says that he has “200” Omega Grade mutant multiple personalities in his mind. Each alter ego in him has its own strengths and differences. Simply put, David Haller’s power as Legion is everything. It all depends on which personality is controlling his body.

Weakness

She suffers from dissociative identity disorder, also known as multiple personality disorder, which was triggered after the death of her stepfather. His power allows him to hear and feel the thoughts of all those killed in the vicinity. This led to the creation of the first three alters with different psychic powers. One telekinetic, one telepathic, one pyrokinetic. Then it begins to expand to an unknown number of alters, perhaps thousands, all with unique powers.

Kill Him Self

In the Marvel Comic final issue of the X-Men Legacy, David was able to reach the full magnitude of his powers and he decided to erase himself from existence by never being born. Because he tired of being the very superpower mutant with so many alter egos. Sometimes he becomes a normal mutant, sometimes becomes a hero, and sometimes also become a villain.
