Spotlight On...LIAM CONNAUGHTON

[Monolith]

This young man's was initially a very sad tale. As with so many, he was drawn into the sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland and his life was equivocally damaged. Unlike those other unfortunates, he was also a mutant. His uncontrollable destructive abilities would make him a target not just for manipulation by those who oppose peace but at one point they even marked him for death. Luckily his life did ultimately turn around and he became a positive symbol for change in Ireland and the British Isles thanks in part due to the machinations of Charles Xavier's son, Legion during one of his fleeting periods of lucidity. Read the hopeful story of Liam Connaughton.
