The X-Men are headed to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and this will likely see the mutants rebooted for an incarnation separate from the previous 20th Century Fox movies. Doing so allows for the characters and concepts in the franchise to be handled in a more comic-accurate capacity. This will hopefully include two ideas that those movies only slightly touched upon.The Legacy Virus and Genosha were two examples of X-Men comic books being socially relevant. Despite this thematic strength and their importance in the source material, neither concept was focused upon or accurately portrayed in the Fox movies. Thus, the MCU can finally do them justice and bring a classic era of X-Men stories to the big screen.Ironically, his rule brought about the peace that the country was previously known for, though it had by that point become a mutants-only island. This blissful dream came to an end, however, when Genosha was destroyed by the machinations of Cassandra Nova. The Legacy Virus debuted in the next decade of X-Men comic books, with the disease spreading like wildfire throughout the mutant population. It was released by Stryfe, an evil clone of the time-traveling mutant Cable. The Legacy Virus (in its first two strains) sought out the X-gene in mutants, with humans and non-mutant superhumans (including “mutates” such as Spider-Man) being unaffected.
