Godfrey Calthrop is a fictional character in the Marvel Comics who first appeared in Uncanny X-Men #473. He is a member of the Foursaken.
He was one of Jamie Braddock's best buddies when they were young, together with Amina Synge and Ned Horrocks. They disappeared in a sandstorm on the Sahara Desert during a Trans-Sahara Ralye which only Jamie escaped. They were contacted by the First Fallen, and returned years later, trying to reach Jamie to complete the First Fallen plans, fighting the X-Men in the process. The First Fallen take the Foursakens and the X-Men to The Singing City, a "heaven" created by him. It is said that humanity will live on in this new place, but it is soon discovered only four humans will make the cut. All others will not.
In the end, Jamie sends back Calthrop, Synge, and the X-Men back to the 616 universe. Once they arrive, Synge turns angry on the X-Men. After Bishop points a gun at them and says that they're just lucky to be alive, Calthrop suggests to Synge that maybe they should find something else to do with their lives and they depart.

“The I’m-going-to-win-no-matter-how-I-have-to-do-it attitude just doesn’t seem to fit. For me, a contest isn’t a success unless it was fun, whether or not I win.”
