Template:Superherobox Agent X is a fictional character, a superhero in Marvel Comics' universe. He first appeared in Agent X #1, by Gail Simone and UDON.
His real name is Nijo, though after suffering amnesia he took on the identity of Alex Hayden. His powers consist of augmented strength, agility, and dexterity and superhuman regeneration. He is a skilled marksman

He founded the mercenary outfit Agency X, with his girlfriend (and fellow mercenary) Outlaw, Taskmaster and managed by Deadpool's ex-business manager Sandi Brandenberg. He has been aided by a young mutant girl called Mary Zero whose power means no-one but him is able to notice her.
Eventually, the Black Swan showed up with a "tabula rasa" Deadpool in tow (who Hayden immediately shot in the head). It was revealed that "Hayden" was really the corpse of Nijo, the Swan's former partner, which had been revived and given Deadpool's healing factor by Swan's out of control mental powers (Swan had also received a copy of the healing factor), and whose mind was created from an amalgam of Deadpool and the Swan. And that Deadpool's personality was growing back (unwittingly accelerated by Hayden's bullet to his head).
In an attempt to regain the parts of his mind he had lost, as well as remove the pieces of their minds he wanted rid of ("You and Wilson have my skills, Mr Hayden. In return, I received a taste for Radiohead and an encyclopediac knowledge of pornographic knock-knock jokes. Yes, I'd like to switch back if possible"), including Nijo's sense of honour, they performed a three-way mind meld, which restored Deadpool (who immediately stabbed the Swan in the back) and Hayden, Deadpool, Outlaw and Taskmaster killed (and stuffed) the Swan when he immediately tried to kill them.
Since the conclusion of the Agent X series, Agent X has appeared in two issues of Cable and Deadpool, wherein he was hired to kill Deadpool and stop him from resurrecting Cable.it:Agente X
