ZEITGEIST
Real Name: Axel Cluney
First Appearance: X-Force (Vol. 1) #116, July 2001
Powers: Zeitgeist was born with the mutant ability to generate large amounts of gelatinous, energized bio-plasma from within his throat cavity and expel it through his mouth.
This "gunk" is as corrosive as acid and highly volatile, capable of dissolving and eating through solid matter. It can also cause explosive releases of force if even slightly stimulated. He had difficulty controlling the release of his mutant power and constantly wore a face-mask over his mouth.

Most mutants remember when their powers first manifested, but Axel Cluney manifested his when he was at a beach getting drunk with a girl and hurled his corrosive vomit all over her face. He wore a specially-designed mouthpiece to control his power from then on. He was the leader of the media-skewering incarnation of X-Force and enjoyed the fame and female groupies that came with it. He got so used to the good life that he forgot the name of the girl he first vomited on. It took being killed (literally shot in half) for him to finally remember.
But corrosive vomit? I’d like to see whose was more acidic, his or Jeff Goldblum’s from The Fly (1986)?
