History:
(X-Men: The Animated Series cartoon - "Sanctuary - Part II") - Monsoon and his sister Haven were one of the many recipients of a global transmission sent by mutant supremacist Fabian Cortez from Asteroid M. Cortez called for the immediate release of all mutants from captivity and pay restitution for human crimes against them, a feat which the inhabitants of Asteroid M celebrated. Others who viewed the message were the government sanctioned X-Factor, the Externals Gideon and Saul and US President Robert Kelly. In the end, Magneto destroyed Asteroid M's active warheads, defeated Cortez and in a mighty show of force destroyed Asteroid M.
Comments: Created by J.M. DeMatteis and Jan Duursema;

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.
