Domino (comics)
Domino is a fictional character, a mutant superhero published by Marvel Comics. She is affiliated with the mutant militant group X-Force. She was created by Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld. A Domino imposter, a mutant shapeshifter named Copycat, first appeared in New Mutants #98 (1992), although the real Domino did not appear in that issue. Domino made a brief appearance in a flashback in X-Force volume 1 #8, and made her first actual present-day appearance on the last page of issue #11.
Domino's true name is unrevealed, although it has variously been given at times as Neena Thomas and Beatrice Thurman; she used the latter identity while married to a man named Milo Thurman. Domino was born with chalk-white skin, with a black spot surrounding her left eye. She possesses the mutant ability to affect probability, effectively giving her the power of good luck. She is a longtime ally of the time travelling mutant called Cable, and while the two have enjoyed frequent flirtation, they have never actually had an intimate relationship, although he did briefly become the lover of Domino's imposter.
When Cable became the leader of the New Mutants following their break from the X-Men, "Domino" (actually Copycat) joined him as his field leader, and stayed with the team as they changed from the New Mutants to X-Force. When it was revealed that the real Domino was actually a prisoner of the supervillain Stryfe, X-Force rejected the Domino imposter and, with Cable's reassurances, rescued the real Domino and welcomed her into the team. Domino stayed with the team for most of its existence, becoming its de facto leader when Cable left the team on several occasions. When X-Force briefly disbanded, Domino joined the X-Corporation, although she rejoined X-Force when the team was reformed.
