In House of X #6 we get our first glimpse of Krakoa’s mutant leaders, the Quiet Council of Krakoa. On today’s Krakin Krakoa X-Men exploration, I’m going to explore questions like: Who’s the redacted Red King of the Hellfire Club? What 10 mutants are missing from this assemblage of 18 mutant leaders? Who the flip is Exodus?!

The post Krakin’ Krakoa #10: Who’s the Missing Red King in House of X? appeared first on Comic Book Herald.

At times, Namor the Sub-Mariner has challenged even Apocalypse for title of “First Mutant.” So why is it that the King of Atlantis is *the* holdout from the X-Men’s mutant island nation of Krakoa?

In this Krakin’ Krakoa, the series where I dig into the most fascinating elements of the Jonathan Hickman written X-Men comics at Marvel, I explore why Namor’s refusing Professor X’s offer, his history with the X-Men (and Marvel Universe at large), and consider what it means for Professor X to be ready to involve Namor.

Plus, I explore how recent revelation in the pages of the Chip Zdarsky written Invaders have led to a secret history between Namor and Professor X – one that may well have significant consequences for House of X moving forward.

In the pages of House of X, Wanda Maximoff (The Scarlet Witch) is referred to as “The Great Pretender” and listed as one of the most devastating assailants in mutant history. But was Wanda pretending to be a mutant, actually a mutant, or simply deceived into thinking she was a mutant?
