Comics
In the Marvel Universe, Team X was a CIA black ops team that operated during the 1960s and was linked to Weapon Plus. It was made up of Logan, Victor Creed, Maverick, Kestrel, Mastodon, and Silver Fox. Team X was apparently disbanded after a botched mission concerning Omega Red, though its members were captured and used as test subjects by the Weapon X Project. Omega Red has conflicted with Team X during a mission to get the Carbonadium Synthesizer to help neutralize his death factor and stabilize his body. That happened when Sabertooth and Omega Red clashed.
