The Paragons are one of the teams of mutants in the comic book series New X-Men: Academy X, in the Marvel Universe. They are students of the Xavier Institute and are instructed by members of the X-Men. The squad’s colors are green, pink, and black.
All teams of the Xavier Institute disbanded after M-Day and have been formed into one group.
