Throughout comics, bloodlines have been lied about, confusing, and unreliable, but over the next couple of pages, you will find definitive family trees of some of Marvel comics longtime characters.
The phrase 'Father of all Mutants' is often used to describe the X-Men's founder, Charles Xavier. However, having fathered only one child throughout his life, the
honour might better suit the father of his first student, Scott Summers.
Major Christopher Summers' genetics have been spread throughout time and space, over three generations of the Summers clan. There had been no mutants in the Summers family before, and so it was surprising that Christopher's two sons were both mutants. Even more surprising is the fact that Christopher and Katherine would be the last humans in the Summers' line, as every child Scott and Alex would have, would be a mutant, and so it would follow down the line.
A mutant's genetic make-up is unique. The mutant gene doesn't seem to appear solely in the child of mutant parents. As said above, a mutant can be born to 'normal' parents, and vice-versa, a human child to mutant parents.
