Christopher Bradley, formerly known as Bolt and Maverick, is a fictional character, a young mutant in the Marvel Universe, who first appeared in X-Men Unlimited #8.
[edit] Fictional character biography
Chris Bradley was revealed to have contracted the Legacy Virus after he began training in the use of his powers at the Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters.
He soon found a mentor in Maverick and stayed with him for a while before joining the New Warriors. After the break-up of his New Warriors team, he teamed up again with Maverick.
When Maverick disappeared and was believed dead, Bolt took the Maverick alias for himself and joined the Underground, a group founded by Cable to battle Weapon X and expose its existence. Following the group's defeat, Chris remained in the Underground, though it was taken over by Marrow and remade into a new incarnation of the extremist mutant supremacist group Gene Nation. Chris did not leave as he wanted to undermine Gene Nation from within and preventing its terrorist attacks, though he was ultimately killed by his former mentor himself, now bearing the codename Agent Zero, who did not find out Chris had been the new Maverick until it was too late.
