Otto Strucker, Reed and others in “Unfinished Business”

There's something you need to see. It's better you know everything. [takes out photos from a box] This is my father, Andreas von Strucker. My father and his sister Andrea did unspeakable things, they were terrorists. They were also mutants.

Reed

[looking at newspaper clippings from the box] This was all them?

All of it, and more.

Reed

What could they do?

Apart, they had the same abilities as your children. Together though, they were known as Fenris, the wolf. And they were more powerful than you can imagine.

Reed

Wait, if they were mutants−

Yes, Reed, your children's mutations were inherited. I am a mutant.

Reed

It's not possible.

Please, just let me finish. [showing a photo of him as a child] They tried to raise me to be like them, but I ran away.

Reed

That's you?

I hid my powers from everyone, even your mother. You have to understand, our family's abilities set us apart even from other mutants. It was too much, I had to stop it.

Reed

How could you possibly stop it?

That's what brought me to Trask. A research project to eliminate the X-gene. I never found what they wanted, a serum that worked on all mutants. But I made a version that worked on one mutant, and gave it to you.
