-Switchback first appeared as one of many refugees, escaping from [[Apocalypse (comics)|Apocalypse]]'s rule to [[Avalon (comics)|Avalon]]. Her boyfriend Gary and her companions all die during the journey and Switchback is the only one to reach Avalon alive. When Avalon is attacked, she joins [[Nightcrawler (comics)|Nightcrawler]], [[Mystique (comics)|Mystique]] and [[Damask (comics)|Damask]] to form X-calibre, a group that fights the [[Shadow King]] to save Avalon. Switchback powers to manipulate time are combined with Nightcrawler's [[teleportation]] and Damask's [[psionics|psionic]] skinning to defeat the Shadow King on the [[astral plane]]. Switchback didn't appear in the [[2005]] Age of Apocalypse-miniseries.

-Switchback had the power to manipulate her own personal timeline: she could replace herself and others with a younger versions while retaining the memories of their older selves. The limits of this ability are unknown; she replaced herself only with versions a few minutes younger than her current self. This allowed her to escape [[telepathy|telepathic]] possession by the Shadow King.
-During the fight with the Shadow King she used her powers on Nightcrawler and Damask, stretching the near instantaneous teleportation into minutes allowing Damask to attack the Shadow King from the astral plane they travelled through.
-Because Switchback's powers lacked any offensive capability, she wielded guns that Mystique gave to her.
