Though I didn't like it as much as X-Men/X-Men 97, X-Men: Evolution was a fun animated series and reimagining of the franchise. One of my favorite characters was Spyke. Spyke, born Evan Daniels, was Storm's nephew and a native of NYC. He originally had the ability to fire spikes from his body (much like Marrow). He was recruited by his aunt when his powers manifested and was a X-Men until he lost the ability to control is powers. Soon after he joined the Morlocks. In his last appearance he had a permanent exoskeleton on his upper body and could ignite his spikes.
Spyke was a fun character. He was originally reluctant to be a hero, but grew as the series went on. He was also a skateboarder, which in 2000 meant he was the coolest. Strangely the only comic Spyke appeared in outside X-Men: Evolution was X-Babies Stars Reborn. In the main 616 continuity Storm has a cousin named David Munroe, that is loosely based on Spyke.
