The Bryce-Jones Family Tree

Okay, this time I've done it. I've actually found a simple MC2 Family Tree to pump out with ease. Sue me. This time around, our subjects hail from the very short-lived Wild Thing series: The Bryce-Jones Family.


Cameron Bryce-Jones first appears in Wild Thing #1 and it's obvious from the beginning that she isn't a nice person, bullying Upper Saddle River High's new student Rina Logan by slamming a locker door into her head and making negative comments about her family.

Cameron appears to have no qualms using underhanded methods to achieve her goals either, as she ceases an opportunity to steal test answers and mentions using her position as office monitor to look at student records.


In the same issue, Cameron is kidnapped by the villain Thrash Bandit in an attempt to extort twenty-five million dollars from Brooks Bryce-Jones, Cameron's wealthy father. Brooks attempts to talk down the price, offering Thrash Bandit a mere ten thousand with stock options for the safe return of his daughter. While it's not strictly relevant, it's worth mentioning that the Offices of Bryce-Jones Investments was located within the World Trade Center, something that would now be impossible. Curiously, this was not altered or changed for the 2007 digest collection.




While never seen, Cameron seems to have a mother in her life as she calls for her 'mommy' while in peril in Wild Thing #3. In the same issue, a newly-reawakened sleeper-Sentinel seems to identify Cameron as a 'Dormant Class 'A' Mutant Designate', suggesting that there may be more to Ms Bryce-Jones than meets the eye. I may post a theory about that soon.






Until I commit to another huge MC2 blog project, I remain
