Our two land mass lovers may be unfamiliar to reader who have n’t kept up with the past few tumultuous months in the X - Men universe , but at least one of them is nearly connect to their chronicle . Krakoabrought together the " All - New , All - dissimilar " team for their very first deputation , introducing many of the X - Men ’s most popular and long-lasting member , including Wolverine , Storm , and Nightcrawler . Professor X and Cyclops call in these iconic mutants together to deliver his original team , who had gone to receive a new mutant on an island in the South Pacific , only to discover the islandwasthe sport !
Despite its importance to the record book ’s account , Krakoa was mostly absent fromThe decade - Menuntil Jason Aaron and Chris Bachalo relaunched the series asWolverine and the X - Menin 2011 . After burst with Cyclops over his militaristic imagination for the mutant Utopia , Wolverine opened a new school for talented mutants in upstate New York . Unfortunately , the mutant - detest Hellfire Club had produce their own version of Krakoa and hid it under the shoal grounds . The X - Men ’s psychic , Kid Omega and Rachel Summers eventually convince the new Krakoa to take their side .

The indistinguishability of Krakoa ’s partner Arakko is more occult . Hickman’sPowers of Xrevealed that hundreds of years ago , a faint , blade - wield enemy split the island of Okkara into two : Krakoa and Arakko .

Whatever other import this might have is still unclear . The X - Men now share their island Shangri-la monsters from another proportion with names like " Uhr’Oggloth , the great brute of the out realm , " and " Dur the Undying . " It ’s another unexpected exploitation in Hickman ’s mutant professional design , and just like the other spell , we ’ll have to wait and see how they fall into place .
