History
Hand-Gun was a member of the Y-Men a gang of criminals operating out of the closed La Jolla Paintball Arena in California. When mutant tattoo artist Leon Nunez came into debt to them for $18,000, he offered to give them superpowers to pay it off.[1]
Despite posing a large challenge, they were defeated by the Young X-Men and de-powered by Ink's new Phoenix force-like power.[1]Attributes
Powers
- Leon Nunez's Tatoo: has no powers of his own. Instead, he had access to a mutant tattoo artist, Leon Nunez, with the power of granting superpowers to other beings by tattooing iconic power symbols on them, evocative of the power he wants to bestow. The downside to this is that it takes away a little bit of his will every time he does it.
- Bullet Discharge - Tattoo of a 9mm on his right hand let him shoot actual bullets from his pointer and index fingers of both hands.[2]
