Earth-295

Earth-295 is a planet that features in Marvel Comics.

History

Earth-295 was an alternate reality that existed within the Multiverse. It was created as a divergent reality spawned from an accidental case of time travel on Earth-616 by Legion the son of X-Men leader Professor Charles Xavier and Israeli diplomat Gabrielle Haller. In a misguided attempt to fulfill his father's dreams of human-mutant co-existence, Legion travelled back in time to before his father's falling out with Magneto. Legion believed that Magneto was the reason that Xavier had been unable to bring about peace between humans and mutants, and thus believed that killing him would allow Xavier to fulfill his dreams. Legion was opposed by the X-Men Storm, Iceman, Bishop, and Psylocke, who were dragged backwards in time with him. (X-Men v2 #40)

Unbeknownst to the combatants, the ancient mutant Apocalypse had witnessed the battle from afar. The level of superhuman abilities wielded by Legion, Magneto, Xavier and the time-displaced X-Men led him to believe that the evolution of mutantkind had proceeded sufficiently, and that the world was ripe for his return. (X-Men v2 #40)

Inspired by Xavier, Magneto sought to educate those who feared mutants, and to show them that humans and mutants could live together in harmony. Magneto's efforts were futile however, and as intolerance and hatred towards mutants steadily grew, Magneto chose to isolate himself from the world. He gathered a small group of young mutants from around the world and brought them to a hideout in Wundagore Mountain. These would be the first of his X-Men, mutants who were taught by Magneto to use their powers for the benefit of the entire world. In time, Magneto's school would house many mutants, from children to adults, receiving sanctuary and training in the use of their powers. (X-Men Chronicles v1 #1)
