On the tenth anniversary of the "Age of Apocalypse", the Guthrie family made a reappearance with the addition of "Jay." In this reality they were agents of Apocalypse. Here, Jay (with bionic wings similar to Archangel's) joined his elder siblings Cannonball, Amazon (his sister Elizabeth, who has not yet manifested powers in the mainstream Marvel Universe), and Husk as a terrorist. After they attempted to harm Magneto's son Charles and wife Rogue, Magneto killed Jay and Cannonball.
In the "House of M" alternate universe, where mutants rule the Earth, JAY is a popular singer, with sold out concerts.
In What If #92, a non-mutant Jay finds and fixes up a broken Sentinel, reprogramming it to serve and protect him, and using it to make himself a "special" like his super-powered siblings. When Cannonball and Husk come home, the sentinel (which has been reconstructing its memory banks) identifies them as mutants and attacks them, but when it realizes it is a danger to Jay it has to "protect" him by destroying itself. This story is similar to the later comic series Sentinel by Sean McKeever and UDON.

“The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.”
