Also sicknesses can cause mutant genes to activate. Doesn't have to be stress from life.
@tobiaxI also thought stressors and other experiences triggered it as well. Oh well off to the movies.You are right. See: 90s cartoon Cyclops, maybe other versions. Possibly Havoc.
I love that it looks like most people are gonna be good little schoolkids and go to school after getting sick and finding out they have super-powers.
