Apocalypse was first ascertained in the “Tempest” arc written by Brian K. Vaughn and Brandon Peterson. This arc re considered Nathaniel Essex as a successive assassin who targeted mutants. The cognitive insanity surrounding Sinister gave rise to the mysterious Apocalypse that was much dangerous, as his power was apparently linked to the demise of these mutants. 

Essex Captured By S.H.I.E.L.D

Moreover, it wasn’t precisely certain if Apocalypse was actual or simply an illusion formed by Essex’s splintered mind. After he had been captured by S.H.I.E.L.D., Sinister comprehended his dark lord for another time again. Advising the failed Essex to slay himself, Apocalypse appeared in his cell in a shape that resembled a less strong version of his mainstream companion.

Additional growths pertaining to the villain were seeded with the coming of Cable in Robert Kirkman and Ben Oliver’s Ultimate X-Men #75. The time-travelling mutant appeared to the present, striving to kill Professor Xavier. Unfortunately, for the X-Men, he clearly succeeded before returning from where he came. Meanwhile, Sinister somehow returned back after his suicide and begun massacring undercover Morlocks to attain the ritual. Confronting the X-Men in a terrible battle, a mortally injured Sinister eventually attained his desired mutant kill count. Cruising into the New York sun, Sinister ultimately transformed into Apocalypse.

In the Ultimate Universe, Apocalypse has corresponded a heavier version of his Marvel Universe’s self, though with a ruddy armour by replacing the usual blue colour. Despite being an altered Sinister, Apocalypse is an entirely different entity, with greatly different and more devastating strengths. His main proficiencies involve snatching the powers of other mutants and expanding them to his own armoury. This has made him incredibly powerful when he has faced the X-Men and the numerous mutants of the Morlocks. S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Fantastic Four attempt to seize him down, with the outcome being a tougher, even more, strong armoured Apocalypse.

Cable and Xavier have returned from Cable’s forthcoming future by wearing armour approximating Stryfe and Onslaught. This has whirled the tide presently, with Xavier controlling to get inside Apocalypse’s mind and terminate his manipulation of close mutants. Unfortunately, Apocalypse has obstructed Xavier’s telepathy and qualified himself to assassinate the X-Men’s commander. Shunned into an effort by the situation, Jean Grey is surpassed by the Phoenix persona. The somewhat aground Ultimate Universe has dabbled with the notion that the Phoenix, like in the movie X-Men: The Last Stand, is a misanthropic aspect of Jean’s temperament. 

Phoenix commented that Apocalypse’s assertions to be an ancient mutant were fibs. This fits the prophecy that mutants in the Ultimate Universe were the outcome of the 20th-century investigation and not a natural evolution of humanity. 

Given her declaration that he was Sinister’s real form, it is apparent that Apocalypse was an adaptation of Essex. Either way, his enormous power earned him the enormous bodily threat to the Ultimate X-Men team. He was the final villain that they would confront together before the destructive incidents of Ultimatum.
