In the early 1990's humans became aware of the presence of mutants and super powered being among them. In 1998 mutant registration passed and in 2000 the multiple assassination of Senator Kelly and Bolivar Trask lead to the call for the arrest of nearly every known hero and mutant alive. Magneto opened up a home for all those on the run on the African Island of Genosha. For the next twelve years mutants lived in a peaceful society led by Magneto in isolation.

Then in December of 2012, the humans had a big surprise. The Skrull had been living among them for years, working their way into the infrastructure of every major government. Now they were taking Earth for their own.

General Nick Fury called for help of the former heroes in Exile on Genosha and in June 2015, the Skrull were defeated at last. A year later Kate Rasputin opened the Academy of Tomorrow on the site of the former Xavier Institute and now, in 2020, the first class is entering Summer Session of their senior year. The children of famous heroes are educated there with their own kind, finding structure, acceptance, and control of their abilities. SHIELD has been passed down to General Elijah Bradly (Patriot) and Hank McCoy (Beast) has become Speaker of the House.
