Avalanche is a fictional character appearing in Marvel Comics. He is a mutant, and can send earthquakes of varying sizes through the ground, as well as crumble/disintegrate anything other than living tissue (such as a human body). Originally from the Greek island of Crete, his name is Dominic Petros, and he has served in Mystique's first and second Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Freedom Force, and recently was forcibly recruited into Banshee's X-Corps.

In the cartoon, his name is Lance Alvers, and he comes from the same city as Kitty Pryde. As his failing attempts to impress Kitty his love for her keeps growing even with being mocked by his team the Brotherhood (Quicksilver, Toad, Blob, and the Scarlet Witch).
