History

Little is detailed about Sasquatch’s life before the zombie plague arrived on Earth-2149, however it can be presumed that it followed much the same path as Sasquatch (Earth-616).

Zombified Sasquatch, and others from Alpha Flight, attack the Xavier Institute, and are battling several X-Men, when Magneto turns up, and using his magnetic powers, blasts metallic debris through Alpha Flight’s heads, presumably killing them.
