Forgive But Don’t Forget: Scarlet Witch & Shadow King Reborn in New Mutants #23 & Trial of Magneto #4
Today marks the release of New Mutants #23 and Trial of Magneto #4, two unrelated issues set in the Krakoa era of X-Men that share thematic DNA looking at the paths to reformation and self-acceptance for Wanda Maximoff, the Scarlet Witch, and Amahl Farouk, aka the Shadow King.
