    Mutants are humans that are born that way, all the others are made in one way or another. Pretty much all Marvel superheroes that don’t originate from X-Men are not mutants.

      Mutants specifically have to carry the x-gene; some super powered humans have been born with powers but don’t have the x-gene, so they aren’t considered mutants.

      Mutants, even the X-Men, can be a bit anal, and even racist, about that kind of thing.
