Wild Child (Kyle Gibney), alternately spelled Wildchild and also known as Weapon Omega and Wildheart, is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character has been depicted as both a superhero and a supervillain, and as a member of Alpha Flight, X Factor and Weapon X.

Wild Child was created by John Byrne and appeared in a cameo appearance in Alpha Flight #1 (Aug 1983), but he did not appear in full until Alpha Flight #11.

Kyle Gibney is a mutant who manifested a feral mutation during puberty; this mutation granted him enhanced physical abilities and an increased rate of regeneration. He also gains a bestial appearance, which prompts his parents to throw him out of their house. Living on the streets, he is kidnapped by the conspiratorial Secret Empire and subjected to experimentation that alters his mind and body and makes him mentally unstable and prone to violent and animalistic behavior. During this time, he becomes acquainted with Dr. Valerie Cooper, a United States government official who is unaware of the Secret Empire's true nature or activities. He is freed by Wyre, the man who has unwittingly been the source for the genetic material that is used in the Empire's experiments. Gibney (now Wild Child) is detained by the military and given over to the custody of Canada's secret Department H, who oversees the formative Alpha Flight team. The Flight member Walter Langkowski, wanting to protect the youth from the military, places him in the trainee team dubbed Gamma Flight. After Alpha Flight and its trainee groups are officially disbanded, Gibney is recruited to join the first Omega Flight team, a group of professional criminals. Alongside Omega Flight, he battles Alpha Flight and is defeated. Alongside Omega Flight, he battles Alpha Flight again in the West Edmonton Mall, and is defeated by Madison Jeffries. Afterwards, he commits a series of murders, which ends when he battles and is captured by Wolverine after he severely injures and almost kills Alpha Flight member Heather Hudson. Wild Child is subsequently pardoned under unrevealed circumstances and given membership in the new Gamma Flight. Alongside Gamma Flight, he battles Alpha Flight. However, he then aids Gamma and Alpha Flight against Llan the Sorcerer's forces. When Gamma Flight is disbanded soon after that, he goes berserk over his deprecated status and attacks Pathway, another trainee. Gamma's leader Nemesis teleport him away during a fight with Heather Hudson (then Guardian) and Wolverine, and he is captured by Wolverine. Department H would later help him overcome his psychological problems and cure his mental illness, train him in unarmed combat, and place him as a special operative of the Canadian government assigned to Alpha Flight under the codename Weapon Omega. Alongside Alpha Flight, he battles Diablo. He joins Alpha Flight's "Core Alpha", meet the second X Factor team, and prevents the mind controlled Omerta from assassinating Italy's head of state. He also fights a Wild Child doppelganger during the Infinity War. He is attacked by Wyre but rescued by Alpha Flight. He searches for Nemesis, and is held prisoner with her by Rok, but they are then rescued by Weapon X. He defeates Wyre in personal combat; he then learns about his true origin, and changes his codename to Wildheart. He aids Alpha Flight in combat with the Wrecker. He also becomes romantically involved with his teammate Aurora. His appearance eventually deteriorates back to his initial feral form, which prompts him to leave Alpha Flight and Aurora. He follows Valerie Cooper to the United States, where he joins the government operated team X Factor. There he begins a romantic relationship with his teammate Shard. His teammate Sabretooth frequently attempts, with little success, to convince Wild Child to become a hunter and killer like himself. He remains with the team until his body begins to mutate into a more feral form. He eventually degenerates to a near mindless state and is recruited into the new Weapon X team. As part of his draft, Wild Child is paired with Sabretooth to try and recruit Sunfire to the program. However, he refuses and badly burns Sabretooth. When Wild Child mocks his burns, Sabretooth slits his vocal cords and threatens to kill any Weapon X medical staff who would operate on him, making sure that he would remain mute. His past flame, Aurora, is also recruited into the team but she is not herself. After the Weapon X upgrades she becomes cocky and aloof, snubbing the ugly Wild Child and even engaging in a relationship with the horribly disfigured Director of the program. This becomes fuel for the fire when Brent Jackson attempts to undermine the authority of director Malcolm Colcord. Using Aurora's attitude toward him as motive, Jackson convinces Wild Child to join his splinter group.

Wild Child was seen on a terminal screen as one of the mutants depowered after M Day. His energy signature was found within the entity known as The Collective, along with the energy signatures of many other depowered mutants.

Wild Child recently demonstrated that his powers had returned as well as previously erased memories. He even managed to best Wolverine in a quick fight. He is now looking like his old Wildheart persona. Wild Child appeared once more in conflict with Wolverine aiding Omega Red and attempting to kill Logan. He was doing so under the order of the enigmatic Romulus. His plan consisted of dropping Logan into molten steel; however, he was interrupted by Omega Red. While Wild Child and Omega Red battled each other, Logan managed to flee. Omega Red succeeded in distracting Wild Child and thus was able to impale him on his coils before throwing him into a vat of molten steel.

In the new status quo for mutants post House of X and Powers of X, Professor X and Magneto invite all mutants to live on Krakoa and welcome even former enemies into their fold. Kyle Gibney joins a loose group of outcast mutants, operating under Mister Sinister: the Hellions, which also comprise Havok, Kwannon, Empath, John Greycrow, Nanny, and Orphan Maker.

Kyle Gibney is a mutant who was experimented upon, genetically engineered by Secret Empire scientists using DNA replicated from Wyre. He has superhumanly acute senses, as well as superhuman speed, agility, reflexes, coordination, balance, and endurance. His teeth and nails are hardened and strong enough to rend substances as thick as bone. His body heals at a rate several times greater than that of a normal human being but not at the rate of Sabretooth's healing factor. He also has various animal like mutations common for "feral" mutants: leaf shaped ears; eyes with neither pupils nor irises; sharper than normal teeth with pronounced, fang like canines; and elongated fingernails and toenails which can be used as claw like weapons, as well as his hunched body posture. He is an excellent hand to hand combatant with both special ops and martial arts training from Wolverine as well as the Canadian government's superhero Flight program, and is also trained in acrobatics and gymnastics. In his bestial rages, he relies more on sheer ferocity than fighting skill. As Wildheart, the savage, bestial side of his personality was suppressed by an unknown drug, but his savage self still threatened to overwhelm his sanity at all times. As a result of injuries suffered at the hands of Sabretooth, who prevented him from getting medical treatment, Wildchild was mute for a time. However, along with his renewed powers, he seems to have regained the ability to speak as well.

In 2014, Entertainment Weekly ranked Wild Child 93rd in their "Let's rank every X Man ever" list.

In the Age of Apocalypse alternate timeline, Wild Child was a member of the X Men and was frequently partnered with Sabretooth. Wild Child possessed a low level of intelligence (comparable to that of a dog) and an inability to communicate verbally. As such, he was kept on a chain leash to prevent him from harming any of the X Men. For a time, he was Sabretooth's sidekick, as Creed had rescued Wild Child from being a prisoner of Apocalypse's son Holocaust but his current fate is unknown. The 2005 Handbook to the Age of Apocalypse states that Kyle is away on a secret mission with the other X Men who were not present during the Age of Apocalypse 10th Anniversary Limited Series, though when Sabretooth and Blink revisited their home reality during a mission as Exiles, Magneto and Rogue revealed to them that Kyle had run away after Victor and Clarice had disappeared when they were taken away by the Tallus. He was eventually found and claimed by Quentin Quire. He then moved to the latter's reality to replace its deceased Wild Child, who was not supposed to have died. Wild Child has since been returned to the Age of Apocalypse timeline as he is seen following and later confronting the X Force. He is killed while, along with the X Men from his world and X Force, trying to stop Archangel's genocidal plans on Earth 616.

In the House of M reality, Wild Child (alongside Arclight and Mentallo) is a Red Guard member positioned in Australia to serve Exodus.

In the Mutant X alternate reality, Wild Child roams the wilds of Canada, feral, along with that reality's version of Sabretooth and Wolverine, both as feral as he. They operated under the name "The Pack." For a time, the hero known as the Brute ran with them.

In the pages of Avengers of the Wastelands that serve as a sequel of "Old Man Logan" and take place on Earth 21923, Wild Child is among the villains that attack Danielle Cage's group in Osborn County where they were killed by the insects summoned by Dwight Barrett's Ant Man helmet.

Kyle is still a part of the splinter group of Weapon X, run by Brent Jackson.

The Ultimate Marvel version of Wild Child appears in Ultimate Comics: Wolverine #2. He and a few of his soldiers were tracking Wolverine's son, Jimmy Hudson to kill his adopted parents, the Hudsons: James Hudson and Heather Hudson. Jimmy pounces but is almost killed by Wild Child till Quicksilver appears and twists his neck around.

Wild Child makes a non speaking cameo appearance in the X Men: The Animated Series episode "One Man's Worth" as a member of Magneto's mutant resistance.

The Age of Apocalypse version of Wild Child received an action figure as part of Toy Biz's Age of Apocalypse toyline. The Age of Apocalypse version of Wild Child received an action figure as part of Hasbro's Marvel Legends brand.
