The State of Krakoan Nudity in X-Men #3, Excalibur #3 and Marauders #3 Today (Spoilers)

In House Of X, we learned that mutants, when brought back to life by The Five of Krakoa, are naked. And seem to remain naked when paraded in front of the rest of the population of Krakoa while everyone screams out that they are mutants. Rather than that they are naked. Does Krakoa need someone to look at the Emperor and point this out?

The State of Krakoan Nudity in X-Men #3, Excalibur #3 and Marauders #3 Today (Spoilers)

In today's Dawn Of X, we return to that theme. In Marauders, Sebastian Shaw brings back his son, Shenobi Shaw but, as any proud father would, he gives him a gown straight away.

Now we know that Debastian killed Shenobi the first time… but was brought back to life in X-Necrosha.

Dawn Wordage

Before killing himself in the previous run of Uncanny X-Men, rather than be defeated and be captured.

Dawn Wordage

Not that Shenobi seems to have any memories of this. But it's useful to put Sebastian Shaw's words into context…

Dawn Wordage

While over in Excalibur, as Rictor is dealing with his own issues, it seems like nudity is being associated with Krakoa but the world population as well, as mutants are removing their 'human' clothes before going through the gate for the first time.

Dawn Wordage

Maybe compulsory nudity will be added to the Krakoa constitution – tie it into that Make More Mutants edict?

Dawn Wordage

There seems to be some discordance regarding how those gates are looking… over in Excalibur, the Central Park gate looks like this…

Dawn Wordage

While in Marauders, it seems to have been militarised up…

Dawn Wordage

Giving Shaw a chance to, well, make it look more like it looks in Excalibur.

Dawn Wordage

Sebastian Shaw is a little more diplomatic over in X-Men #3/

Dawn Wordage

With a new enemy of the mutants and Krakoa – villains with a point – who have their own interpretation of X-nudity as well. Or, at least, Emma Frost's continual flirtation with it.
