Description
As Judge Chalmers frees the other mutant captives, the X-Men and Lorna Dane race the injured Havok to Dr. Karl Lykos, a former colleague of Prof. Xavier, for treatment. Unknown to them, however, Lykos as a boy had been bitten by pterosaurs from the Savage Land while on an expedition to Tierra del Fuego, and as a result has become a kind of energy-vampire who must periodically drain others of their life-energy to survive. Now, as he leeches extraordinary energies from the mutant Alex, Lykos is transformed into an anthropomorphic pterosaur who christens himself Sauron and flies into the sky. Back at Xavier's school, the Angel, hearing a report referring to the winged marauder as a mutant, is incensed, dons his original Avenging Angel costume, and flies off alone. When he confronts Sauron high over the city, though, he is transfixed by the creature's hypnotic powers.
