Powers & History: Blindside was a teleporter who was infected with a Brood embryo by the Broodqueen Harry Palmer. He defended Palmer against the X-Men in Denver, taking action against Dazzler in a diner. Blindside favored a half-Brood form with Brood head and torso and human legs. His tactic of popping into a victim's blindspot worked for a short time, until he was caught by one of Storm's lightning bolts after a jump and was incinerated.
