In X-Men: The Animated Series, Morph was a member of the X-Men who was apparently killed in the first episode by Sentinels. He reappeared in the second season as a recurring villain who was driven steadily mad by his memories of his death; he was eventually revealed to have been cloned by Mister Sinister. He was voiced by Ron Rubin.
In the Age of Apocalypse, Morph was, like his normal Marvel Universe counterpart, an early recruit of the X-Men, but in this reality he did not die while impersonating Professor X, because in the Age of Apocalypse, Xavier died before the X-Men were ever founded.
In the Exiles series, Morph is a hero from a parallel world who was a member of not only the X-Men but also the Avengers. Morph is a shape-shifter and a hilarious character in Exiles. Morph befriended Sunfire. When Sunfire was fighting the Brood Mimic, she ran out of energy and was buried in the falling rubble. Morph found her and realized that she was dead. He was devastated and blamed Mimic for it. He said that Mimic lied and should have killed himself. After the Exiles defeated Hyperion, the Timebroker told Morph that he fixed his reality and could go home. Morph said that this was his new family and he wanted to stay. The Timebroker allowed him to do so.
