Pipeline provided his services during the X-Tinction Agenda and went on to participate in the Genoshan Civil War. It is unknown if Pipeline survived Genosha's destruction. If he is alive, it is unknown if he retained his abilities following M-Day . Creation Pipeline was created by Chris Claremont and Rick Leonardi in 1988 and first appeared in Uncanny X-Men # 235. Powers & Abilities Pipeline has the mutant ability to transport living matter through telephone and computer lines (a much more useful ability once land-lines became irrelevant). Those being transported were digitized and sent through the lines to a connected location.
