“Genesis Revoked”

In What If...? #85: "Genesis Revoked", Magneto’s dream of peace between mutants and humans on the Avalon space station begins to unravel as ideological rifts split the Acolytes. When Rusty and Skids welcome a child whose unique genetics signal a new stage in mutant evolution, the factional divide deepens—threatening to consume the fragile harmony they’ve built. Written by David Michelinie and illustrated by Arnie Jorgensen, with inks by Christopher Ivy and Vince Russell, colors by Frank Lopez, and letters by Phil Felix, the issue’s cover by Igor Kordey captures the tension in a striking, foreboding image.
