Oh, and Mutants will be fighting Inhumans because of course they will. But after months of uncertainty as to what went down with Cyclops in the run up to Marvel’s “All-New, All-Different” reboot, a new miniseries will explore the events that lead to Scott Summers’ mysterious disappearance.
In the current comics, Cyclops — not his younger, time-lost self, who’s also running around, but the adult Cyclops — is believed dead by his former allies, and vilified for whatever actions he took that lead to said death, as they initiated a period of hostility between Mutant-kind and the Inhumans.

But no clear answer about how it all went down in the eight months between the end of Secret Wars and the start of Marvel’s reset universe has been given, until now. Revealed by Entertainment Weekly, Death of X (written by Jeff Lemire and Charles Soule with art from Aaron Kuder), will be a four-part miniseries that explores that eight-month period. Set mostly within that unexplored area, it will focus on what just happened to Scott, and how his actions have lead to the current status quo where Inhumans are on the rise and Mutants are being poisoned and sterilised by the Terrigen Mists.
It will be nice to get some answers! And, presumably, as this is comics, perhaps learn that Cyclops isn’t as dead as his friends think he is. Death of X begins in October.

But we already know why mutants are being sterilised and poisoned by Terrigen mists: because Ike Perlmutter can’t have movies made about them.
Did they ever explain why the past versions of the X-Men couldn’t go back to their original t imr?
They revealed it was Beast (Hank McCoy) that broight them to the future. I think he broke Time somehow when he did that? I remember a scene of him being scolded by the Watcher.
