Yup.

Mutant - born with a mutation that gives them a super-powered ability.

Mutate - born in the normal range but later encountered an agent which caused a mutation, gene alteration and a superpower, eg Hulk, FF, Spider-Man.

 

I put the set away so can't check, but I'm assuming it was something to do with Genosha, which still existed at the time, and had mutates. I think they were mutants messed with by the genegineer. Something like that.

I picked up this in Saturday for $1.50. I got it for the late-Bronze and Sword & Sorcery theme. The artwork inside is nice (Ernie Colon) but the cover looks like a hastily done sketch (Colon and Giordano).

So this is either the worst cover ever or the greatest cover of all time. You be the judge. The only thing that would make it better is if the tag line was "He sees you when you're sleeping..."

It’s okay.  Homage to Stallone’s Cobra film probably, as well as the more obvious Terminator.
