The most recent addition to the ranks of the cyborg
Reavers, the female cyborg dubbed Skullbuster was seen among the Reavers who gathered in Sydney, Australia as thralls of the psionic entity known as the
Shadow King. Encountering the
X-Men, Skullbuster faced
Thunderbird (Neal Shaara) in battle and almost drained him of his solar plasma energy until Bishop intervened. Skullbuster and the rest of the Reavers were defeated by the X-Men and taken to prison.
