Alternate-X Versions: None
Codename Etymology: Pronounced fl&#xxx;b'r [From Disney's 1961 movie The Absent-Minded Professor]; "Flying Rubber"
Powers & History: Flubber’s bizarre physiology gives him abnormally large hands with heightened agility, and a rubbery body that allows him to spring great heights and distances. He also seems to have a mask or helmet, but the reasons for that are unknown.

Not much is known about Flubber before he came to the Xavier Institute and was placed on Gambit’s training squad. There, he became the slight jokester member of the team, but also very loyal to the other kids who became his friend, even joining Onyxx and Rain Boy in a possibly coup against their mentor, Gambit, during a camping trip when they felt he might have been taking advantage of the affections of fellow teammate Foxx, but they were soon put in their place. Later, when Foxx turned out to be the villain Mytique in one of her guises, Flubber tried to restrain and calm Onyxx, who refused to believe that Foxx wasn’t a real girl that he had a big crush on.

After, not much was seen of Flubber, but he is believed to be depowered after M-Day along with most of the students at the school.
