Trivia[]

In the movie, her shockwave-based superpowers are more refined than in the comic book: her shockwaves project in an outward fashion and she can target specific materials.
In the comics, Arclight also has superhuman strength, superhuman durability and superhuman endurance, but she doesn't show off these abilities in X-Men: The Last Stand.
In the comics, Arclight and Callisto were enemies. Arclight was part of a villain group called 'The Marauders'. The Maruaders were guilty of killing lots of Morlocks, a group of mutant outcasts living in secret tunnels of New York City, whose leader was Callisto. This horrifying event is also known as The Mutant Massacre.
