X-Men – First Class – Get It First Here by Tina T Willer
Filming for “X-MEN: First Class” begins this month on Jekyll, an island off the coast in Georgia. An authority of the Island of Jekyll has approved an agreement with Fox of 20th century to film the fifth action movie of X-MEN from the Wonder comics books about super mutant heroes. The Savannah Tomorrow News reported that the producers have agreed to pay the authority of Jekyll island, $16,000 for the use of a 4.5-acre beach to the east of Beachview Handle and the Clam Stream in Georgia. Chris Petrikin, a spokesman for the film said the Island of Jekyll was chosen for its esthetics, and it’s local availability to harbor the team.
X-MEN are super heroes in the Wonder Comedian Universe. They were created by writer Stan Reads and the artist Jack Kirby, and first seen in The X-MAN #1 (September 1963).
The basic premise of X-MEN is that under a cloud of feeling that anti mutant intolerance is growing, Professor Xavier creates a refuge in their Westchester mansion. Here mutant youths are coached to utilize their powers to benefit humanity, and to show the world that mutants are really heroes.
Xavier enlisted these mutants because they possess special powers due having the X-GENE. The X-GENE is a normal gene that humans lack. It gives Mutants their special capacities. The “X” in X-MEN signifies this “extra” power. It was alluded to that the powerful mutations were contracted when the mutants were exposed to radiation.
The first enemy of the arch of the team, the Magneto, fought the X-MEN for decades alone. The Mutant Fraternity enemies were eventually introduced in the book #4.
The universe of X-MEN also includes other heroes such as the Glutton, the Storm, the Colossus, the Scoundrel, Nightcrawler, the Gambit, Shadowcat, Frost of Emma, the Anniversary and Psylocke.
Aside from the Mutant Fraternity, others that X-MEN have fought include Apocalypse, Sinister of Mister, the Destructive Force, Sabretooth, and the Flames of the hell Strike.
