Origin
Born roughly 70 years into one of Earth's alternate futures, Lucas Bishop grew up on a dark and desolate world, where the heirs to the X-Men's legacy founded the organization known as the X.S.E. (Xavier's Security Enforcers) on the belief that mutants could police themselves. Chasing one such criminal mutant, Trevor Fitzroy, Bishop and his X.S.E. lieutenants traveled back through time to the present day. Stranded in the past, they continued pursuing their suspect. But, Bishop's troops were slain, and himself badly injured during the deadly battle that ensued. Only through the intervention of the X-Men did he survive. Feeling honored to serve the team whose members he had idolized since childhood, Bishop found new purpose with the X-Men.
