Black Cyclone is a 1925 American silent Western film directed by Fred Jackman [1] featuring Rex the King of Wild Horses.
As described in a film magazine review, [2] Rex, a wild horse of the plains, pays court to The Lady, an aristocratic mare, but loses her when they meander into the valley where Joe Pangle holds reign with his herd of horses. Pangle puts up a fight and conquers Rex. Rex retreats to a stream and gets caught in some quicksand. He is rescued when Jim Lawson aids the horse from the waters using his own hands. That night Rex drives off a pack of wolves that had attacked Lawson, and Rex later fights off a mountain lion to save the man's life. Jane Logan is pursued by Pangle when Lawson takes after them on his horse. Lawson's horse is shot, and Rex permits him to get on and ride. Rex watches Lawson and Pangle battle, and the spirit of the fight enters the horse and he again attacks Pangle. Lawson and Rex win. The Lady returns to Rex and Jane returns to Lawson.
Sabretooth is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, most commonly in association with the X-Men, in particular as an enemy of the mutant Wolverine. Created by writer Chris Claremont and artist John Byrne, the character made his first appearance in Iron Fist #14. The original portrayal of Sabretooth was that of a non-powered serial killer, but was later written as a mutant possessing bestial superhuman abilities, most notably a rapid healing factor, razor-sharp fangs and claws, and superhuman senses. He is a vicious assassin, who was responsible for numerous deaths throughout history, both as a paid mercenary and for his personal pleasure. Accounts on how his enmity with Wolverine originated differs depending on different writers. One of the most common accounts is that Wolverine and Sabretooth were both participants of the Cold War supersoldier program Weapon X, and that Sabretooth saw Wolverine as competition and therefore antagonized him. While Wolverine is depicted as suppressing his more savage qualities, Sabretooth does the opposite and embraces them, until the events of the 2014 storyline "AXIS".
