Ellie has a vision of the population being exterminated moments before a squadron of “Wild” Sentinels attack the island nation killing six million people on the mutant haven.

It was a creative gamble. It was an epic alternate universe story that still has impact on the Children of the Atom now.

Professor X’s son rewrote history with just one horrible choice and the Age of Apocalypse was born. Continue reading AGE OF APOCALYPSE In SECRET WARS
