"We can't stop that many!"
―Bishop to Storm[src]

Lucas Bishop, known as Bishop, was a mutant from 2023, who can absorb energy.

Biography[]

X-Men: Days of Future Past[]

In 2023, Bishop was alerted to an oncoming attack by Sentinels on his mutant group's hideout, and quickly absorbed energy from Sunspot, transferring it from himself to his rifle. Bishop then travelled through objects with Kitty Pryde, reaching a bunker in which Kitty sent his mind back in time a few days, where he warned the past versions of the mutants of the impending attack, preventing it from happening.

Meeting up with the rest of the X-Men in a monastery in China, Bishop was present for the briefing on the plan to send Wolverine back in time to prevent Mystique from killing Bolivar Trask, the event which would ultimately, result in the the horrible future they were currently living in. Bishop, alongside the other X-Men guarded Wolverine while he time traveled, until they were confronted by a fleet of sentinels.

Using Storm's lightning to fuel his rifle, Bishop gunned down a few sentinels in an effort to slow them, but the robots still managed to reach the monastery. Bishop was eventually pinned down by sentinels, who continuously blasted him with their energy beams, which he absorbed but was unable to release. He died within seconds as his body was teared apart by the energy build up.
