History:

(X-Men '92 II#1 - BTS) - After Professor Charles Xavier opened the Xavier Institute to the public, Darian Elliott was one of the many young teenagers that enrolled at the Xavier Institute. Because of his mutation, he took the codename Spike.

(X-Men '92 II#1) - Spike was seen running through the school's hallways during the first day of the semester. Headmaster Hank McCoy urged the students to slow down after which he asked Professor Charles Xavier if he would take a class of his own.

(X-Men '92 II#4 - BTS) - When the X-Men came under attack by the vampire Alpha Red, the Soviet Union's answer to Captain America, most of the students including Spike were turned into vampires.

(X-Men '92 II#4) - When Alpha Red and his vamped followers attacked the X-Men, Spike and the other vamped students were eager to kill U-Go Girl. She, however, teleported the vamped students to the Danger Room were they faced several constructs of legendary vampire hunter Blade. All of them were rescued when Dead Girl gave the Darkhold her soul to whisper the words "no more vampires" causing the vampire-curse to be lifted on Earth, turning all back into humans. Thus dealing with the situation at hand.

Comments: Created by Peter Milligan and Mike Allred;
    adapted by Chad Bowers, Chris Sims and Alti Firmansyah.

When, in 2015's Secret Wars, the Multiverse was destroyed following the incursions of planets it appeared as if Reality-92131 was drafted onto Battleworld as the Westchester domain. All Earth-92131 profiles on the Marvel Appendix reflected that information, however, this has since been debunked with the news that the original X-Men: The Animated Series will receive a brand new season to pick up where the original series ended. As such the reality seen in two volumes of X-Men '92 (2015-2017) now have their own reality-designation. The X-Men '92: House of XCII 2022 series was inspired by both the animated series and Hickman's House of X run but is its own separate reality. Nearly thirty years after X-Men: The Animated Series first debuted the new season will appear on Disney+ in fall 2023.
