Wall is a fictional mutant in the Marvel Comics Universe. His first appearance was in Cable vol. 2 #79.
Wall was a member of Randall Shire's small travelling carnival in Australia before Shire was possessed by the alien Undying known as Semijan and subsequently enslaved Wall and his brother Key with his mutant vocal power.
Wall was forced to serve as Shire's bodyguard until the mutant hero Cable stopped an assassination attempt on Shire by another Undying known as Aentaros and discredited Shire in the eyes of those he had enslaved, thus freeing them from his control. Wall and Key aided Cable in breaking into the Undying's stronghold, and fought the Undying, distracting them while Key reprogrammed the Undying's artificial intelligence program, causing them to be unable to possess anything except cockroaches for the rest of eternity.
It has yet to be determined whether Wall has retained his mutant powers post-Decimation.
Wall is a low-level mutant whose body is denser than adamantium, and is resistant to injury. Wall also possesses enhanced strength.
