Kenji Ueno is Zero

Zero is one of the Five Lights, five new mutants to emerge since the return of Hope Summers. He is a techno-organic body sculptor, as well as a world-renowned artist.

Zero (born Kenji Uedo) was an artist in Japan that had been gaining worldwide recognition for his modern sculptures and bleak paintings, with even the X-Men's Emma Frost being familiar with his work. He would later become the fifth mutant to manifest powers in the years following the race's Decimation at the hands of the Scarlet Witch. As one of the Five Lights, he helps shepherd the next generation of mutants.

Born to two relatively normal parents in Japan, Kenji's early life was filled with turmoil when his mother suspected his father had been cheating on her. After following him after work, her fears were confirmed when she discovered he had been philandering with another man. Upon his secret becoming uncovered, Kenji's father committed suicide in order to escape the reality of his secret coming out.
