Magneto is leading the mutant attack on the White House
guarded by non-metallic Sentinels when he is informed that the US has fired missiles
at Genosha. He leaves Polaris in charge of the attack, adding a word of encouragement
(she does not know she’s his daughter). He has Gateway teleport him and
Quicksilver to the SHIELD Helicarrier…
…where Vice President Bolivar Trask has ordered the attack
on Genosha. But the missiles are stopped by Black Bolt; Trask orders nukes
fired at the Inhumans’ homeland in Tibet but Dum Dum Dugan warns him that such
a course of action would start a war with China. Magneto arrives in their midst
and shuts off the engines, sending the craft crashing into New York Harbor. Sentinels
arrive and Trask orders them to kill the mutants, regardless of the risk to
human lives. Magneto hurls Trask into the path of a Sentinel’s beam weapon and
Trask is obliterated; Magneto then leads the Sentinels to Central Park. Quicksilver
rescues SHIELD Agent Carol Danvers who has been secretly aiding the mutant
cause; she also asks to be taken to Central Park. Quicksilver leaves Carol
there and races to Washington for reinforcements; Carol then reveals her alien
powers and helps Magneto fight the Sentinels. In D.C., Quicksilver has Gateway
open a portal to Central Park and he leads the troops through. Magneto is
grabbed by a Sentinel so he brings down Air Force One, carrying President Richard M. Nixon,
to decapitate the giant robot. Magneto takes Nixon prisoner
and declares victory….
One week later in Genosha, Magnus announces that documents
captured by Carol Danvers prove the existence of a worldwide anti-mutant
conspiracy headed by Bolivar Trask. He rewards Carol with the title of
Captain Marvel. And in honor of his human daughter Wanda and the memory of Charles
Xavier, he announces that they will be seeking peace with the humans. He
confides in Carol that the humans will all be gone in a few years, though he
doesn’t notice her reaction to that statement. Magnus then takes Wanda, Pietro
and Lorna into another room and informs them that they are his children. But
the revelation only angers Lorna who believed her father abandoned her mother and
never returned even when she was dying of cancer and she storms out. Wanda
tells Magneto that for the first time mutants all over the world feel free—but what
we see is mutants taking revenge against humans, bullying them with their powers,
and Apocalypse taking over Egypt—and Magneto believes all his dreams have come
true….
