Major Story Arc
Euro-Trash
The Powers That Be in charge of the Kingdom of Europa hired Blue to join a mutant mercenary group called Euro-Trash. They were assigned to target European pop star, Henrietta Hunter, who was being protected by the American mutant group, X-Statix.
Blue and the rest of the team engaged X-Statix in combat in New York City. There, they had backup from Spider-Man. After a brief fight, Miz grabbed Henrietta and brought her into X-Statix's gift shop. Her team joined her there, with The Wall created a rock exterior blocking their rival team.
Henrietta was able to talk the team into rehabbing their public brand in the same way as X-Statix. Unfortunately, Henrietta was not able to explain this to X-Statix before they made their move. Blue was crushed between a wall and Phat's fat.
