Notes

• There are several differences and similarities between the Mainstream Continuity and House of M realities. Revealed in this issue:
  • Agent Foley and Agent Ford are S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, partners and specialize in torture/interrogation.
  • Agent Ford wears a protective containment suit that resembles an astronaut's spacesuit.
  • Sophie Cuckoo appears to be fairly independent of her sisters.
  • Cameron Hodge, Seiji Ashida, and Donald Pierce are all working together under Human Liberation Front.
  • Surge was forcibly taken from her family by Emperor Sunfire instead of being disowned for being a mutant
