X-Men 101: #54 - BLOWN AWAY


The X-Mansion has often been breached by evil mutants many times which has caused it's destruction over and over again. It was demolished in a battle with the Sidri in Uncanny X-Men #154 and atomized by Mister Sinister in Uncanny X-Men #243. However, certain portions of the mansion, such as sub-basements, survived both attacks. When Onslaught revealed himself and fought the X-Men (X-Men #54) the mansion took heavy damage, though was quickly repaired in-between issues after the "Onslaught" storyline. In Operation: Zero Tolerance, Bastion forced Jubilee to reveal the mansion's defenses. He then stripped down the mansion, having nearly everything inside the mansion removed. After defeating Bastion, the X-Men moved back into the mansion and restocked it, as detailed in X-Men #70. Most recently, the X-Mansion survived an assault by the Shi'ar Imperial Guard in New X-Men #122-126 as well as a riot by students led by Quentin Quire in New X-Men #134-138. In the Planet X storyline of New X-Men #146-150, however, the X-Mansion was destroyed; the rebuilding process could be seen in New X-Men #155-156. In the wake of M-Day the mansion was infiltrated by followers of the Reverend William Stryker in an attempt to wipe out the students, resulting in some structural damage and several casualties. Then the mansion was destroyed when the Danger Room became sentient and summoned local machinery to attack the structure. The mansion was also damaged when Mr Sinister's new team of Marauders attacked the mansion. More recently, a fight between the Hulk and several mutants damages the mansion. In the Messiah Complex storyline, the Mansion is completely destroyed by attacking Sentinels. Where do they get the money to rebuild.
