History:

(Secret Wars#1 - BTS) - When the Multiverse was destroyed following the incursions of planets, Doctor Doom, using the Beyonders' powers, created Battleworld a patchwork of different realities. Among those domains was Earth-15730, now called the Westchester domain, ruled by former President Kelly who was appointed by Doom to become the domain's Baron.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#3 - BTS) - Feral was one of the many mutants to join the Clear Mountain Institute to live in harmony in their isolated community. However, Feral and similar mutants like Leech and Sauron whose physical mutation made them undesirable in the eyes of the Shadow King were confined and hidden away in the catacombs of Clear Mountain, dubbed the Rej-X.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#3 (fb) - BTS) - Imprisoned in the catacombs of Clear Mountains the Rej-X were forced to strip down old Sentinels for parts in exchange for food. The Rej-X were unaware Nova had been building the X-Sentinel, built from the parts in a plan to kill Baron Kelly and become the Baroness of Westchester herself.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#3 - BTS) - Learning the X-Men had come to investigate the Clear Mountain Institute, Rej-X's Leech and Artie Maddicks decided to try and attract the X-Men's attention in the hopes of being rescued.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#3) - Artie Maddicks used his mutant abilities to project a telepathic hologram of himself with it he searched for the X-Men. Unbeknownst to the Rej-X, all of the X-Men except for Jubilee were trapped by Cassandra Nova's Mind Field. Artie, nonetheless managed to find Jubilee who followed the hologram and used her lock-picking skills to open the Rej-X's "prison". Feral, Caliban, Sauron and several other mutants of the Rej-X were shocked to see Jubilee, fearing she could've been sent by Nova to punish them. While Feral opted to eat the girl Leech quickly revealed he and Artie had brought her so she could help them.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#4) - When properly introduced Jubilee learned that while she'd managed to open the door it had been closed shut again, however, moments later Clear Mountain guards arrived to banish the X-Man Beast with them, having failed Nova's Mind Field. Chamber and Feral showed both X-Men the Clear Mountain basement where the Rej-X had been put to work to strip down old Sentinels for parts revealing they'd heard chatter over project X-Sentinel.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#5 - BTS) - The Clear Mountain Institute came under attack by X-Force who'd came to rescue the X-Men. X-Force's Deadpool then freed Feral, the Rej-X and X-Men Beast and Jubilee.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#6) - Deadpool returned Feral, the Rej-X and X-Men Beast and Jubilee to X-Force. Both X-Force and the Rej-X were then surprised when Cassandra Nova herself appeared with the "rehabilitated" Wolverine, Rogue and Gambit, rechristening them her New X-Men. Refusing to fight X-Force, Nova revealed she'd send her X-Sentinel (build from the deactivated Sentinels) to kill Baron Kelly in X-Force's name, certain she would become Westchester's next Baroness once Doom would see all of her good work. Nova then turned her attention to the Rej-X, urging them to attack and defeat X-Force for the chance of becoming one of Doom's Thors. Intrigued by the opportunity the Rej-X attacked X-Force, during the fight Feral took on Domino. The battle was halted by the return of X-Men Storm, Cyclops and Jean Grey who'd escaped Nova's Mindscape. In an effort to save Baron Kelly from the X-Sentinel Storm rallied X-Force, Rej-X, Nova's rehabilitated New X-Men and other mutants from Clear Mountain to help them.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#7) - Feral and the other mutants arrived near the X-Museum to stop the X-Sentinel. However, Storm ordered X-Force to ensure Baron Kelly's safety while the X-Men and others fought the X-Sentinel. But just as X-Factor led Baron Kelly to the X-Men's Blackbird, Nova attacked.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#8) - In the end, Xavier managed to banish the Shadow King with help from Cable, Psylocke and Jean Grey. The X-Sentinel was then destroyed by Jubilee with help from Gambit. With the threat subsided, Feral followed the X-Men to the X-Mansion.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#8 - BTS) - X-Force welcomed both Feral and Shatterstar into their ranks.

(X-Men '92 Infinite Comic#8) - When Charles Xavier decided to open the X-Mansion as a school for new generations of mutants he offered X-Force a place to stay. Both Bishop and Psylocke decided to leave X-Force and join the X-Men while Feral and the others decided to stay a separate group and left.

(Secret Wars#9 - BTS) - Earth-15730 along with all other domains of Battleworld were returned to their former state after the defeat of Doom.

(X-Men '92 II#9 (fb) - BTS) - Learning Apocalypse was still alive X-Force set out to find and kill the ancient mutant.

(X-Men '92 II#9) - Cable and his X-Force located Apocalypse who, joined by his "disciples", had sought out X-Factor and the X-Men on the abandoned Lilapalooza music festival. Unbeknownst to the X-Men, Apocalypse had learned of the banished Celestial, Xodus the Forgotten who was set to return to their dimension to destroy Earth, fearing mutantkind would someday ascend the Celestials. Apocalypse had been training the X-Men all these years in the hopes of defeating the Celestial, however, when the X-Men had used the Darkhold to permanently remove the vampire-curse on Earth, it had weakened edges of space allowing Xodus to return. When Cable and his X-Force appeared they shot Apocalypse in the chest, seemingly killing him.

(X-Men '92 II#10) - President Kelly and Xavier ordered the X-Men and X-Factor to stop X-Force and rescue Apocalypse. After things had calmed down Apocalypse revealed his plan to activate the latent x-gene in all humans to create a world full of mutants to stop Xodus. Apocalypse had originally planned to use S.W.O.R.D.'s alien technology to construct a device to do so but with the Peak down it was X-Men student Dead Girl who suggested they use the Darkhold to do so. Apocalypse and Xavier agreed after which Xavier telepathically reached out to all of humankind asking for their help. When millions of humans replied Xavier's message to have their latent x-gene activated and join the fight against Xodus, Dead Girl with Xavier's help used the Darkhold to do so, although Xavier gave his life in the process. Domino then joined millions of mutants in the fight against Xodus.

(Infinity Wars: Sleepwalker#3) - When Reality-616 was folded in half by Gamora using the Infinity Stones one being proved to be immune, the Sleepwalker. On a quest trough the Infinity Stones he managed to locate the Man-Thing Thang Thoom, dragon protector of the Nexus within the Soul World. Together they travelled past other realities seeing a glimpse of Feral and mutantkind fighting Xodus the Forgotten.

First released as an eight-part digital Infinite Comic the series was later reprinted as a four-issue printed series.

When, in 2015's Secret Wars, the Multiverse was destroyed following the incursions of planets it appeared as if Reality-15730 was drafted onto Battleworld as the Westchester domain. All Earth-15730 profiles on the Marvel Appendix reflected that information, however, this has since been debunked with the news that the original X-Men: The Animated Series will receive a brand new season to pick up where the original series ended. As such the reality seen in two volumes of X-Men '92 (2015-2017) now have their own reality-designation. 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. Nearly thirty years after X-Men: The Animated Series first debuted the new season will appear on Disney+ in fall 2023.
