Technically yeah, Paradise X #4 is sort of a cover appearance
I just checked my copies, and didn't see his name.
Maybe it was advertised as 'inspired by Alex Ross's Marvels' or something?

I wondered if that was it.
Earth / Universe / Paradise X are completely unrelated to Ruins.
(Actually, I only just finished my second read of the first Paradise X trade last night. Only just got it.)

I hope this helps.

Yeah, sorry FP, but I've gotta go with Legerd on this one.
I used to think the same thing about possibly being his son and wondered where Scott Lobdel was going with Walt's guilt toward WC. Furman's explanation was lacking, IIRC Walter altered Kyle's psych records so he could remain in the Flight Program. Would've preferred something different. These days I like to think Kyle is the son of Sabretooth.
My pet theory is that Wildchild was altered using Sabretooth's DNA rather that Wyre's. A wrench was already thrown into the paternity theory when all mutants were depowered except for the ones who had a mutant parent, and one of the depowered guys was Wildchild, even if it didn't last long.
Personally I kind of like the idea that Walter forged those records to keep WC in the Flight Program, and that this is why he felt responsible. I mean, the Flight program actually could have helped Kyle if things had gone differently, where as we all know the result of them just turning him loose. I think it adds depth to Sas, that he did something so unethical because he thought the alternative would be worse. There is hubris in the fact that the forgery may have made it more of a surprise later when Wildchild lost his mind. It just paints the picture of an impossible situation, where the outcome was bad no matter what, but at least he cared about the troubled young victim of experimentation and did what he could.
I wish they'd focus on Walter in this light, more, because it really makes the character lovable but also flawed, which is crucial for a character to be relateable.

Well, better than a wench being thrown into a paternity theory at least....
