[edit] History

Lifter has been a member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Mutant Force and the Resistants.

His name has been included on a list of Mutants who have been depowered by the events of House of M and "Decimation" that was printed by Wizard Magazine. However the accuracy of the list has been disputed [1] and Lifter has not yet been listed or shown as depowered in any Marvel Comics publications.
