Excalibur V3 (2004)
In 2004, Marvel Comics launched a new ongoing series titled Excalibur, this time dealing with the efforts of Professor Xavier and Magneto to rebuild the devastated mutant nation of Genosha (which was destroyed at the beginning of Grant Morrison‘s X-Men run).
Other cast members included Callisto, another mutant leader and former member of the Morlocks, and newcomers such as Wicked, Freakshow, Shola Inkosi, and Karima Shapandar. Archangel and Husk also appeared in the series. The grouping never laid claim to the name Excalibur, despite the title of the series. The series’ last issue was #14, released in May, 2005. Events of the “House of M” storyline concluded Xavier’s and Magneto’s partnership. Afterward, the mutant members of the group showed up in the “Son of M” series, where it was revealed they had all lost their powers due to the “Decimation.” However, they used Quicksilver‘s stolen Terrigen Mist to bring their powers back, which caused them to go out of control, but the effect wore off later, leaving them human.

Trials of Shazam! featured Captain Marvel, now with a white costume and long white hair, taking over the role of the wizard Shazam under the name Marvel, while Captain Marvel Jr. and Mary Marvel lose their powers. A powerless Freddy Freeman is then drafted to prove himself worthy to the individual six gods evident in the “Shazam” acronym so that he can become their new champion and herald under the name Shazam, although a witch Sabina from the Council of Merlin attempts to take the power herself, as ordered by her father Merlin. Atlas is killed during the series by Sabina, but Apollo’s healing replaces him. Marvel helps Freddy when he is trapped by the weight that Atlas bore.

In the course of the following months, Deadpool’s popularity skyrocketed after the mercenary Solo impersonated him to piggyback on Deadpool’s reputation and take jobs at a higher pay rate. One of Solo’s jobs in Washington, D.C. had Deadpool’s public opinion drastically change for the better when he saved an ambassador from his telepathically-manipulated agents. After learning of Solo’s impersonation, Deadpool came up with the idea to form a group of mercenaries called the Mercs for Money to extend his reach across the globe.
