History:

(X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon - "Remember It" - BTS) - The young mutant known as Glob Herman moved to Genosha at an unrevealed point in time. The African island nation had become a mutant paradise, allowing all mutants like Glob Herman to live in absolute freedom. Glob Herman soon befriended other young mutants like Leech and Pixie.

(X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon - "Remember It") - Glob Herman, Leech, Pixie and an unidentified mutant (parrot-like shapeshifter) were playing in the streets of Hammer Bay when the United Nations had formally admitted Genosha. Soon, the X-Men (Magneto, Gambit and Rogue) arrived to speak with Genosha's Interim Council as they wanted Magneto as their new chancellor of Genosha something which Magneto accepted on the condition that Rogue would rule by his side. While playing, Leech was gifted ice-cream from Iceman, Pixie while teleporting inadvertedly bumped into a wooden beam next to Nature Girl's home after which the friends rode a hovertrain to attend the ongoing festivities. During the celebrations Pixie and her friends watched and danced to a performance by Multiple Man, Cipher, Exodus and Dazzler.

(X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon - "Remember It" - BTS) - That very night, Genosha hosted it's first prestigious Hellfire Gala to celebrate mutant culture. Glob Herman and his friends were not seen during the gala, presumably due to their young age. However, during the gala Genosha was targeted by the techno-organic Sentinel hybrid Bastion who send a monstrous Mastermold to destroy and kill all mutants. As chaos ensued, Mastermold and its Sentinels rendered the island nation to rubble, murdering many mutants. In the end it was X-Man Gambit who sacrificed himself to successfully destroy Bastion's Mastermold.

(X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon - "Remember It") - Having survived the genocide, Glob Herman, Nightcrawler, Pixie and other witnessed X-Man Rogue holding Gambit's lifeless body as morning dawned.

Comments: Created by Grant Morrison and Ethan van Sciver;
    adapted by Beau DeMayo and Marvel Studios (see Appearances list for full list of artists)

The Sentinel used in the attack on Genosha is generally referred to as either the Tri-Sentinel or a Wild Sentinel, however, the end credits of "Remember It" used Mastermold for it's name.

When, in 2015's Secret Wars, the Multiverse was destroyed following the incursions of planets it appeared as if Reality-92131 was drafted onto Battleworld as the Westchester domain. However, this has since been debunked. As such the reality seen in the two volumes of X-Men '92 (2015 and 2016-2017) now have their own reality-designation of Earth-15730. The X-Men '92: House of XCII (2022) series was inspired by both the animated series and Hickman's House of X run but is its own separate reality. The limited series X-Men '97 (2024), however, is Reality-92131 and bridges the gap between the original X-Men: The Animated Series cartoon and the new X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon.
