Who is Mikhail Rasputin?

Bursting onto the scene in Uncanny X-Men #285 in 1992 — the height of the Copper Age's bold, kinetic Marvel storytelling — Mikhail Rasputin is one of the more fascinatingly unconventional figures to emerge from that era's X-Men universe. Created by the legendary artistic duo of Jim Lee and Whilce Portacio, he shares the page with titans like Colossus, Wolverine, and Storm, placing him squarely at the turbulent heart of Marvel's mutant mythology. What makes Mikhail genuinely compelling is the breadth of his affiliations: across more than three decades of appearances stretching into 2026, he's moved through the X-Men, the Morlocks, Generation X, and even the Skrulls — a range that speaks to a character perpetually caught between worlds and allegiances. For collectors who love a figure with real moral complexity and an unpredictable trajectory, Mikhail Rasputin rewards attention.
