The Scarlet Witch looses control of her reality altering powers and kills and wounds many of the Avengers. Magento takes her to Genosha and asks Professor Xavier to try and help her. He fails. The Avengers and X-Men meet to discuss her fate. Quicksilver pleads with Magneto to save her. His only response "What would you have me do?" Quicksilver goes to the Scarlet Witch and urges her to remake the world.

The world burns white and is reborn where Mutants rule and the Sapians are on the path to extinction.

The House of M series was my return to the comic world and I have enjoyed it. In the previous issues, there were a few references of Magentos war with the Sapians and how he won and founded the House of M.

These stories tell of that war. There are five comics in this graphic novel.

Rise: Magnetos life has a tragic beginning as a child in Auschwitz, his liberation, growing up in Eastern Europe, the tragedy of his family and his first battle with the sentinels.

Revolution: Here we see the Mutant revolution, Magneto meets Xavier and how the Nation of Genosha was founded.

Reign: Here we see the efforts to get Genosha recognized and the effort to find allies. Vice President Trask of the US decides to send a team to solve the mutant problem and we get to see what happened to Professor Xavier.

Retaliation: Magento deals with the attack and decides to retaliate against Trask. Here we get an answer to the Scarlet Witch. There is another fight with the Sentinels and we see what happened to Genosha but with a surprising change.

Rex: The aftermath and the founding of the House of M. Magneto announces who he is to Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch. Magneto has everything he dreamed and yet he kind of looks like King Lear.

Overall, I liked this branch of the House of M as it was a good story and it added some answers to the previous stories.
