** Issue #129, which follows on immediately from the Proteus storyline, has Professor X having one of his JerkassBall moments, treating the X-Men like kids rather than competent adults for a prolonged period.
** Emma Frost does not attack the X-Men at any point, nor does she capture them, and her fight with the Phoenix which supposedly ends with her death is removed, allowing Emma to take part in the next episode as well.
** The small role Angel and his love interest Candy Southern play, helping the X-Men recuperate after their capture and getting them an invite to the Hellfire Club, is excised. Instead, the X-Men just force entry.
