join with a community of similar beings, but he declines and returns to be with Luna, as well as aid the X-Men in escaping to higher ground. After the series cancellation in issue #35, X-Men was absorbed into the overarching title 2099: World of Tomorrow, however Timothy was not present in this imprint at all, making his fate unknown. Recently, in Civil War 2099 event (in Spider-Man 2099 vol.3), Timothy returns, along with La Lunatica and Bloodhawk. The X-Men 2099 fought many heroes (including Shakti). Powers and abilities Originally, Tim has the ability to absorb all ambient energy particles into his body where he metabolized them in a usable form and then, disperses it as destructive blasts. Skullfire had no control over these powers though and only capable of using it during great stress moments. Cerebra's abilities allowed her to trigger his capabilities at will, but she must make physical contact with him. After La Lunatica made him relive Reiko's death, he can control them now. While helping to free the mutant Book, it is revealed that he could absorb mystical energies. Absorbing the energy from Halo City's nuclear reactors gave Skullfire a permanent power source, but as one side-effect: glowing light-green. When Skullfire's body was destroyed, he existed as a small sphere of energy. Tim managed to take on a form that resembles his human self. Now, he possesses flight, as well as energy manipulation, but with far more ease and control.
