Marvel’sX - Mencomics have subtly hinted that mutants have not only exist , but been both legion and fertile , for longer than any comic book fan had antecedently think . Which mean even before the earthly concern considered mutant to be the evolutionary " next footprint " of human race , they were already taking it . mass just did n’t know they were mutantsat the time …
The pseudo - scientific idea behind the evolutionary " footmark " was best explained in a 1996 miniseries , The Further Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix , in which one 19th century geneticist suggest evolution can sometimes happen at startling speed . While there are indeed some ancient mutation - such asSelene , Apocalypse , andExodus- these have been viewed as evolutionary precursors to a larger shift . The assumption has been that these early mutants were few and far between , with evolution speed in the present . Butthe newestX - Mencomic bookmay change the feeling forever .

This week’sExcalibur#1subtly reveals the antecedently nameless history of mutants on Earth . The governing body of the mutant nation of Krakoa has had a reflective effect on Avalon , an ancient and mystical region that is the source ofCaptain Britain ’s powers . King Arthur , rule of Avalon , has go away ; he ’s been supplanted by Morgan le Fay , who has declared war on the mutant race . Or as she bear on to them : " witchbreed . "
It ’s a intimate term , lift from Neil Gaiman and Andy Kubert ’s popularMarvel 1602miniseries . publish in 2003 , this classic story envisioned an alternate chronicle where a time trip Captain America was stranded in the year 1602 . His mien led to time going into flux density , with archetypal paladin - ranging from the Fantastic Four to the ten - Men - being create in the Dark Ages rather than in the present day . Both peasants and aristocracy considered variation to be " witchbreed , " curse beings who had created by sorcerers and devils , and were set only for death .
Marvel 1602was essentially your typical alt - universe , butExcalibur#1 has just made the terminal figure " witchbreed " part of the mainstream Marvel Universe . Marvel ’s interlingual rendition ofMorgan le Faywas born in the sixth century ; this entail mutant were mutual enough back then to be victim of persecution . On the face of it , Excalibur#1 seem to be suggest that the history of anti - magical violence - from the Valais beldame trials of the 15th one C to Gallic caption like the Beast of Gévaudan - was partly take against mutants . Of course , there ’s vivid irony in Morgan le Fay tossing out the ancient " witchbreed " slur - she herself is a dark sorceress , who has consorted with devil in the past .
Marvel Studios is presently view how to introduce the ten - gentleman into the MCU . This may hint at a commodious way ; by suggest that variation have always existed , they ’ve just been confused with withcraft and necromancy , and mutants have typically been put to death when their power were name . Perhaps by the present 24-hour interval , the mutation of the MCU have learned to build up their community of interests in secret , hiding from the public eye - at locations like Charles Xavier ’s School for Gifted Youngsters .
