The trouble with this is thatCassandra Nova has a long and red historywith the Shi’ar , having look at possession of then Majestrix Lilandra in the pages of Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely’sNew X - Men , almost slaughtering the mutation on Earth and effectively wrack the intact Shi’ar Empire for some time . InMarauders#1 - spell by Steve Orlando with art by Eleonora Carlini and Matt Milla and lettering by Ariana Maher - Pryde confronts Cassandra Nova over a 2 billion year old boxful she chance inthe page ofMarauders Annual#1 . Apparently the ancient box , written in Pryde ’s own hand , led her to the area of Krakoa where Nova had been isolated , prompting Cassandra to unwrap to Captain Kate that the box itself is not important , but what is in it is . Nova tells Kate that the loge is connected to an ancient issue call " The First rakehell pour forth . "
If Nova is to be trust , that the Okkaran mutant unveiled during theX of Swordseventare not the first mutants , this is ahugeretcon to X - Men lore and the stemma of mutandom . The Okkaran mutants already retconned that Selene was the oldest mutation at 17,000 long time old , so introducing " ancient sport " elderly than 2 billion year is a huge alteration . All of this potential retconning is especially interesting given the massive mutant retcon that is happening in this summer’sJudgment Day , which will reveal that mutants are not an evolutionary offshoot of world , but instead an offshoot of the Deviants , the Eternal ’s deathly enemies .
This beg the inquiry : Are the " first " variation somehow tied to thisretcon of Marvel mutant origins , perhaps connected to the Celestials who created the Deviants in the first place ? Or is this just some devious cozenage by Cassandra Nova , Erik the Red , and the Kin Crimson to pass over out the current Shi’ar government and set up a new one ?
