In 1964 Quicksilver debuted on the issue of The X-Men #4. Quicksilver (Pietro Maximoff) is a mutant with superhuman speed. His father is Magneto and has a twin sister Wanda Maximoff, the Scarlet Witch. Quicksilver has been part of a few affiliations, the Botherhood of Evil Mutants, Inhumans, X-Factor and now with the Avengers.
If you're not a comic book reader but a fan of the movies you may recognize Quicksilver in this years X-Men: Days of Future Past. Where he is portrayed as a juvenile delinquent that helps Xavier and Logan breakout Magneto from the Pentagon. He also appeared on the end credits along with his sister on Captain America: The Winter Soldier and will be coming out on next years Avengers: Age of Ultron. Since 20th Century Fox owns X-Men and Marvel Studios has the rights to Avengers, due to contract agreement Quicksilver isn't referred to as the son of Magneto. Although 20th Century Fox found a funny way of sneaking that into Days of Future Past.
Uncanny Avengers by Rick Remender and Daniel Acuna will be hitting comic shops January 28,2015!
