DESCRIPTION
Published in 2005, 'House of M' was a crossover event by Marvel Comics, written by Brian Michael Bendis with art by Olivier Coipel. The story arc spanned eight issues and involved various Marvel titles. The plot centers around the Scarlet Witch, Wanda Maximoff, who, after suffering a mental breakdown, alters reality to create a world where mutants are the dominant species and her family, the House of Magnus, rules. Key characters include the X-Men, Avengers, and Magneto. Major events include the revelation of Wanda's reality-altering powers and the eventual restoration of the original universe, but not without significant consequences. Notably, the phrase 'No more mutants' uttered by Wanda leads to the depowering of the majority of the mutant population, drastically reducing their numbers. This event had a lasting impact on the Marvel Universe, influencing subsequent storylines and character developments. 'House of M' was critically acclaimed for its storytelling and art, and it remains a significant event in Marvel's history.
