Champions – Change The World | Comics

In New Jersey, at Khan Family residence, Kamala Khan was having breakfast with her family and was thinking about prior events that took place three days ago while her father Yusuf Khan asks her why is she not out much lately.

She recalls her last mission with The Avengers at Queens, when she was busy balancing a derailed train as Giant Girl in the middle of a fight against Wrecking Crew. She managed to save hundreds of passengers of that train while Sam Wilson and Jane Foster smites Thunderball and Piledriver of the gang down as Captain America and Thor.

As her teammates wrapped things up after taking down the bad guys, she asks them about their agenda on battle damage nearby and how their fight is constantly disrupting civilian lives. Vision agrees with her and points out how people are angry at them because of their recent internal skirmish.

They needs to earn that trust back. Her argument on the topic with Captain America has proved his points invalid to her as Ms. Marvel leaves the team while Jane Foster's Thor shockingly watched an Avenger quit again. Being bored sitting in home, she called her friends Miles Morales and Sam Alexander to meet her.

Champions – Change The World | Comics

At George Washington Bridge, when Miles and Sam showed up as Spider-Man and Nova, they thought Ms. Marvel was about to request them to re-join The Avengers but she reveals that she already quit. Kamala explains to them that they should be forming a team who actually cares about super-heroics and can make an actual difference.

Miles suggests enlisting extraordinary young hero Amadeus Cho AKA Totally Awesome Hulk to their team. Cho was inside a Kentucky hills coal mine at that time for a rescue mission, where Ms. Marvel, Nova and Spidey showed up to lend their hands.

With some coordinated plan, there four successfully rescued the miners trapped inside and Cho then vouched for his gaming partner Viv Vision to be included as well. Riding in Cho's Meat Wagon, they all reached at Vision's house and Amadeus explains to the three ex-Avengers how they need to tap into worldwide events to get involved.

He suggested making Viv as their personal trouble-alert because of her built in Wi-Fi multiprocessors. To demonstrate her ability of filtering urgent problems from web, Viv picked up footage of captive girls in a cargo seeking help.

They all quickly rushed to the source of that video transmission to confront a demented clown called Pagliacci with his crews to stop them from deporting those captive girls. After they successfully foiled his attempt of human trafficking, Kamala announces themselves on behalf of her friends as The Champions by handing Pagliacci over to authorities.

However, while they celebrate their first victory and there is more to come, there is one more member to add to their ranks who is none other than a time displaced young X-Men leader Cyclops.

Extraordinary X-Men – X-Haven | Comics

Storm assembled an all-new, extraordinary team of X-Men where she wants Old Man Logan and young Jean Grey to join.

When Thanos came to Earth last time, he came looking for his illegitimate son and had a clash with Black Bolt, the King of Inhumans. The latter detonated a Terrigen Bomb that not only destroyed New Attilan but also left Terrigen Mist in the atmosphere. However, it drastically increased their number while also severely affecting the lives of mutants.

Following this event, X-Men leader Cyclops have gone totally nuts and tried to start a mutant "Revolution" for dominance with a few of his radical followers who had the same belief. This irrational act eventually went horribly wrong for everyone and years of working to improve their public image by Professor X is completely ruined within moments.

Now, veteran X-Men member Storm finds herself with a burden on her shoulder to save her own race without the guidance of her mentor and former leader, Professor Charles Xavier. With the worldwide spread of Terrigenesis, humans and mutants are both dying from its exposure that causes what they are calling “M-Pox” or "X-Pox" these days.

As a result, the age old fear of mutants among humans has re-emerged once again. Meanwhile, a time-displaced Jean Grey from Earth-TRN240 was trying to find a plain and simple life on Earth-616 reality, gets approached by Storm to join their team, which she declined given her history of ending up dying every time as Marvel Girl no matter what.

When Icaman tries to talk to Jean to change her mind and failed, Ororo offered her to take a look into her head using the latter's psychic powers. She realizes that the outbreak of M-Pox caused by Terrigen Mist is not only killing their kind but also sterilizing them from ever to grow in numbers again and it can mean the end of the mutant race.

Mutant sorceress Illyana Rasputin aka Magik took it upon herself to scout throughout the whole world seeking for any mutant refugees in dire situation to save them from angry human mobs triggered by current mutant hysteria and brings them all back to X-Haven, the current headquarters of X-Men situated in magical dimension of Limbo.

Illyana goes to New Delhi, India, to save a family and their young mutant girl affected by Terrigen Mist from a tough crowd. She eventually rescued the family before taking a hit and brought them back to Jean Grey School For Higher Learning for safety.

Magik then heads straight to Lake Baikal, Russia, looking for her elder brother and former X-Man member Colossus to recruit him back to their fold during this crisis while their old pal Nightcrawler was being chased by a newly reformed group of Marauders.

Storm and Iceman were astounded to discover Old Man Logan is walking among them when he mistakenly attacked Cerebra, recently restructured within a Sentinel body by thinking it as an enemy. The old friends catch up quick about their current state of affairs before the young Jean finally meets with Logan to convince and bring him back to action.

Colossus and Magik investigate the disappearance of Nightcrawler only to run into the new team of Marauders and then attacked by someone Sinister. As soon as Illyana Rasputin fell, the magical defenses that she placed to defend X-Haven from Demons of Limbo attacking the sanctuary, collapses and the X-Men got a huge mess on their hand to clean.

The trail of mega crossovers and Universe shattering events like "Schism", Avengers Vs. X-Men and Infinity led to current status-quo of mutantkind in Marvel Universe.
