X-Men: Age of Apocalypse 2005
Abyss
His entry lists him as sharing a common mother, Mystique, with Nightcrawler. In fact, they share a common father, Azazel.
Beak
Beak's place of birth is given as Cheverly, Maryland. Though the character's first appearance in Earth-616 does mention him being treated poorly in Rotterdam in the Netherlands after his powers emerged, which led some to conclude he was Dutch, it does not in fact state he was born there. The most obvious biographical difference between the two Beak's is that the Age of Apocalypse Beak was not separated from his parents, and either returned from the Netherlands with them or never went there in the first place. The information given in the Handbook, written by an editor who has worked on both the X-MEN and EXILES titles, is new information, not wrong information.
Beak (Exiles)
One of his children is named Tito…Thanks to Robbert Graner for highlighting this omission.
Colossus & Mikhail
Their parents are Nikolai (father) and Alexandra Natalya (mother).
Dark Beast
Group Affiliations should have included X-Men (as Beast), Morlocks and Gene Nation…Thanks to Hervé Cousin for pointing this out.
Group Affiliations should also have included Brotherhood of Mutants since he was part of Havok’s Brotherhood of Mutants as mentioned in OHotMU TEAMS 2005...Thanks to Robbert Graner for highlighting this omission.
Black Beast should have been listed as an alias…Thanks to Robbert Graner for highlighting this omission.
Dazzler
Her real name is spelt Alison Blaire, not Allison Blair or Alison Blair. Her mother's name was Barbara, and she had a grandmother, Bella.
Jean Grey
Her parents were John (father) and Elaine (mother). She had an older sister, Sara.
Charles Lensherr
He had a half-sister, Anya (deceased).
Magneto
Erik Lensherr is an alias Magneto has used, not his real name (It is unclear whether the spelling is truly different from its Earth-616 spelling, Lehnsherr). He has another daughter, Anya, who is deceased. His first wife, Magda, is only presumed deceased (as correctly stated in Quicksilver's biography)
Quicksilver
He had an older sister, Anya (deceased).
Rogue
Her real name is Anna Marie, not Rogue, making her Anna Marie Lensherr (though that surname was an alias Magneto adopted, so the legal status of that surname is somewhat uncertain).
