Article Summary

Doctor Doom takes control of Krakoan future with a mutant army.
Volta Doom, a loyalist to Doom, grapples with mutant brotherhood ties.
Fauna, a key witness from House of X, observes a potential Krakoan rebirth.
X-Men #35 marks a pivotal moment for mutants, ending the Krakoan era.

Okay, so you know how I said that Marvel Comics had locked away Krakoa, courtesy of a fifteen-year time jump, so that the X-Men books couldn't be pressured to just go back to Krakoa every time they wanted? As well as moving on the many million mutant population, bringing the X-Men back closer to the classic setup? Well, obviously, they are going to have some kind of backup… and it's in the hands of Doctor Doom. Or rather,/ Volta Doom, his prized member of Doom's own X-Men, as originally created by Gerry Duggan and Joshua Cassara in X-Men #26.

But, though she is as loyal to Doctor Doom as anyone, she also seems to have some competing mutant loyalties or brotherhood.

She takes the seed and gives it to Doom… and lies to his metal face.

And who was it that saw? One Desmond Ochoa-Diaz, better known as Fauna, created by Jonathan Hickman and Pepe Larraz from that first House of X #1 way back in 2019. And the first of the regular mutants to step with an X-Man from the Mansion to Krakoa.

And now there, in the final days of Krakoa, and witnessing what could potentially be a Krakoan rebirth in Latveria. Well, Desmond does see all the important things.

He is a very hairy guy… Expect plenty more X-Men #35 coverage today!
