XM #75] What was the connection between Maggots critters and the Rutai?
Mystery: The Rutai emerged from the Ngarai cairn and began kidnapping and doing live dissections on people around the world. The nature of the dissections and other evidence pointed to the culprits being Maggotts pets, Eany and Meany. When the Rutai revealed their presence and captured the X-Men, oddly enough the maggots seemed very akin to the Rutai, who did not harm them and allowed them to move freely through out their realm. The X-Men eventually defeated the Rutai and the maggots returned to Maggott, but no one knew what the connection was between the creatures. Thoughts: Maggott and his critters never encountered the Rutai again. Later on, Maggott was killed in Weapon X (2nd series), though it one of his pets ended up in the care of Mr. Sinister.
