The different versions of Nathan Essex will be at war with each other
He really is his own worst enemy.
At least partly Confirmed. Orbis Stellaris stole Sinister's lab, Mother Righteous is trying to steal it back, and they conspired to kill Doctor Stasis.
An adult version of Loolo from X-Men Red will appear in Sins of Sinister
Half the fun of a
Bad Future is showing the kids as adults.
Confirmed - ten years in the future she's one of Storm's new brotherhood of mutants.
Sinister's original plan to resurrect himself by possessing Xavier finally worked
Destiny and Xavier both mentioned it in
Immortal X-Men - perhaps he just needed a moment where Xavier was revived so that there was no mind in the newly-resurrected body to fight him off?
Seemingly Jossed - this plan had a much wider scope.
All of the gene samples for Krakoa have always been tainted by Sinister
Everyone who's resurrected is available for him to possess/infect.
Confirmed - or at least that was his plan. Hope's powers purged it for every resurrection prior to her own death.
The +1000 storyline will see Essex facing the Dominion
A.I.s, as shown in
Powers of XAnd he may lose.
Juggernaut will return later in the event
He's one of Spurrier's core cast for
Legion of X. Gillen might seem to put him
On A Bus To Hell in the first issue, but...
Confirmed - he's back in a small but important role in Nightcrawlers #3, still a living bullet hurtling through space.
Ironfire is a Magneto + Sunspot chimera
Legion is dead before the event starts
Jossed.
Nightcrawlers confirms that he's alive, but has sealed himself inside his own mind, so no longer interacts with the wider world. He reappears in #2, about to
Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence.
Nate Grey is the spoiler factor
It's unlikely, but the Age of X-Man has been nodded to a few times, with multiple mutants making their debuts there before appearing on Krakoa, and X-Man himself was listed as one of the X-Men (in the very vague sense of 'working on behalf of mutants somewhere') earlier in the Krakoan era. He is also the perfect puncture for several reasons: he is functionally immortal and able to resurrect himself at will, completely bypassing the Resurrection protocols. He is probably the single most powerful mutant ever to exist, depending how you class Franklin Richards' mutation. He's a multiversal scale telepath, and he specialises in hopping between timelines and realities. He's terrifyingly intelligent. And he absolutely despises Sinister. Oh, and he was created by a version of Sinister, being arguably the first chimera mutant. While it could be argued that he possesses a Storybreaker Power, it would be apt indeed.
Forget-Me-Not is the spoiler factor
The last issue of
Legion of X before the event kicks off goes out of its way to establish that he is dead and no one remembers him to resurrect him - but his DNA records are presumably in Sinister's files somewhere, and he could still be resurrected by some automated process, with his ability to pass unremembered being crucial to blindsiding Sinister.
Destiny's Plan
At the end of
Storm and the Brotherhood of Mutants #1 we see Stellaris and he essentially says that there can only be one winner. It's not a stretch to say that this mindset applies to the other Sinisters too. This goes against the
Arc Words of the Sinister subplot: "We must all be on the same side". It's already been theorized that she's planning to show Sinister that he cannot win alone by forcing him to see how badly his victory turns out, but what if she'll do this to the other Sinisters She's already given Stellaris the Moiras, so maybe the plan is to give each Sinister a turn to set up their plan with save scumming, then swipe the clones and hand them off to the next once that Sinister screws up. Stellaris will make his move at the end of +10 and Mother Righteous has her Ghost Rider-Galactus in the solicitations for +1000 so by process of elimination Stasis will make his move in +100.
Dominion will see the four Sinisters, humbled, voluntarily coming together to reset time to before the event started so their past selves will know they need to work together with Krakoa/their previous faction.
Jossed: Storm & the Brotherhood of Mutants #2 shows that Destiny simply wanted to live with Mystique, and was prepared to spend their entire lives in some bunker. After Mystique decides she doesn't want to live this way and dies fighting the forces of Krakoa, she decides to reset the universe by going after the Moiras by using the Brotherhood.
Sinister treats the Moira Engine like a machine, but the clones of Moira presumably have her memories. The event will end with at least one - after a thousand years of life - regaining her life in the present day.
Doctor Stasis isn't done yet
Is it really that easy to kill another Sinister? Permanently?
Jossed: It is that easy, especially since by that point he basically had no more support from humanity thanks to its subversion at the hands of the mutants.
