The end is here. "X-Men: Apocalypse" is finally in theaters. The new film pits the X-Men against an ancient would-be God bent on creating a new world order, and the stakes have never been higher for the mutants.
As with every superhero film, longtime fans of the comics were eager to follow casting news to see how the big screen versions would measure up to how they've always seen their favorite heroes. Since "Apocalypse" features a whole new class of fan-favorites (Jubilee, Psylocke, Jean Grey, and Cyclops), audiences are even more excited to see how they measure up.
Read on for a brief glimpse at the characters' comic histories and see how they compare to their on-screen counterparts.
Magneto (Michael Fassbender) returns as one of the Four Horsemen. While he's tried to live a normal life, personal tragedy drove him to join Apocalypse.
Psylocke (Olivia Munn) is another one of the Horsemen. She's a lethal swordswoman, assassin, and powerful telepath.
Ororo, better known as Storm (Alexandra Shipp), sports her punk-inspired '80s era mohawk. In the film, we'll see glimpses of her life in Cairo before she became Storm.
