This raises a question - he's not Agent X (or even "Alex Hayden") until AGENTX 1, in either name or persona. And the DP3 issues were also published first.

Shouldn't the listing be split at the point he stops being Nijo?

I thought we had established an arbitrary limit of 20 appearances under a particular codename before we split a listing.

Yeah, we wanted the split identity to have enough appearances to make it "worth it." I don't recall the number, 20 might be right.

We could have a

NIJO
See Agent X

On the N page for anyone reading DP3 65, not knowing he'll eventually be Agent X.

Should Alex Hayden be in quotes? Is it an alias?

It's an alias, according to Black Swan

They literally come up with the "Alex Hayden" name in the course of Agent X #1.

I think the problem I'm having with this is that "Alex Hayden" isn't really Nijo. Nijo is killed in the course of DP3, and by the time Black Swan's powers go haywire, and DP, BS & Nijo all get twisted around each other, there's virtually nothing left of Nijo. "Alex Hayden" is almost entirely Deadpool + Black Swan.

I'm gonna need therapy forever.
