X-Men: The 198 (2006)

Following the trauma of losing her new love, Magma goes on a rampage through Guatemala. Her fiery attacks are stopped by Empath who calms her with his power and returns her to the Xavier Institute. There she is housed among the 198 and befriends the young mutants named Johnny and Outlaw. The refugees are starting to form a sense of community and Mr. M uses his powers to entertain and help the others. He heals Lorelei for example. The scope of his power is cause for alarm among O*N*E officials. In a briefing with the X-Men, the parallels between this “relocation center” and concentration camps becomes increasingly obvious. Kitty points this out rather harshly and excuses herself from the meeting. The meeting is cut short when Erg and some of the more volatile mutants among the 198 try to leave the grounds. This leads to a direct conflict between his “gang” and the Sentinels but Mr. M puts a stop to it before it gets out of hand. O*N*E recognizes that they are rapidly losing control of the situation. Meanwhile, the mysterious mutant named Johnny uses his grotesque power to somehow create a tiny, genetic duplicate of Magma.
