Jonathan Hickman’s reinvention of the X-Men in 2019 started with House of X and Powers of X, two interconnected series which took the mutants away from the rest of the world and into an island haven of Krakoa. The two comics completely revolutionised the franchise across twelve issues, and led into a series of new titles and the launch of a new line of comics for the X-Men moving forward.
