Biography
Original Timeline
X-Men: The Last Stand
Warren Worthington III was seen trying to cut off his wings being embarrassed of his mutation. His father found out he was a mutant by entering the bathroom.
As a young man in his early twenties, his rich industrialist father was motivated by his son's mutation to create a "cure" for mutants. Warren was strapped up and ready to take the cure. However, he then had second thoughts and broke free by extending his wings. Warren jumped out of the window flying and went to the X-Men for help.
When Alcatraz Island was attacked by the Brotherhood of Mutants, Warren's father was captured by Psylocke, Arclight and Quill. They threw him off the roof, but Warren, now known as Angel, arrived in time to save him. He was later seen flying over the Golden Gate Bridge as it was getting fixed; he then flew over a park and waved to a little boy who was watching him fly.
Prior to X-Men: Days of Future Past
According to 25 Moments, in 2011, mutants banded together to protest the billion dollar āmutant cureā arms race led by Trask Industries, Yashida Corporation and other multinational pharmaceutical companies. The Occupy Wall Street movement marched from the X-Mansion to Zuccotti Park. Sentinels attacked the peaceful mutant demonstration. Angel was one of the mutants involved in the march and was killed during the chaos. However, due to the X-Men changing history, Angel was not killed in the riot and is alive and well.
