<img src="http://x-mencomics.com/xfan/images/headshots/amalgam/apollo.jpg" align=left alt="Apollo">Real Name: Ray Summers
First Supposed Appearance: <i>JLA: The New Blood #1</i>
First Actual Appearance: <i>JLX #1</i>
Group Affiliation: JLX, formerly JLA
Known Relatives: Joshua Summers (Chaos, brother)
Major Enemies: Fin Fang Flame, Judgement League Avengers, Will Magnus
Amalgam of: Ray and Cyclops
Because his parents were mutant-fearing souls who thought their son's light powers were evil, they kept young Ray Summers home until he was a teen, telling him that sunlight would kill him. Instead, Summers discovered that it made him stronger, and that he could direct the internalized sunlight through his eyes as powerful optic blasts.
Apollo followed Mr X when he formed the JLX from the ranks of the Judgement League Avengers, and aided him on his quest to find Mariner's lost home of Atlantis, a long-lost mutant safe-haven.
Apollo was romantically involved with fellow teammate Firebird. During the time that Firebird had slipped into a coma, Apollo met a woman who could have been her twin, falling briefly in love with Madelyne Pryor, a.k.a. the Red Queen. The affair ended in tragecy when the Red and White Queens destroyed each other in Alice Arcade's giant chess tournament.
During the JLX's encounter with Fin Fang Flame, Apollo absorbed the energies of the mystical creature and mutated further into a being of pure solar energy.
