Becoming Strfye most trusted ally Zero fought in many battles, although when Strfye's forces met defeat they fled together into the past to the 20th century. Here Strfye assembled a group powerful group of mutants known as the Mutant Liberation Front most commonly referred to as the MLF.

During his time as a member of the Front, Zero teleported Stryfe on a mission of arson, assisted them in the liberation of Rusty Collins and Skids from federal custody. He used his abilities to whisk the front away from X-Force and possible capture. Zero also help the Nasty Boys escape capture.
