Depowered Mutants
Wizard magazine published a speculative list of supposedly decimated characters, which Marvel Comics dismissed as including a number of mutants who still have their powers and also includes non-mutant characters. The list therefore is just a guideline.
- Depowered
- Repowered
- Remutated
- Dead, depowered
- Dead after being repowered
- Dead after being remutated

Notes:
- Sunfire, while depowered long before M-Day because of Rogue was listed among the energies in the Collective. Seeing that Rogue retained his powers, how this is possible remains unknown.
- Many mutants still remain active although they are depowered, they include the New Warriors Blackwing, Tempest, Wondra and Wind Dancer, the X-Cell as well as Brass and El Aguila as reported in Civil War: Battle Damage Report
- It has been revealed in the "Endgangered Species" storyline that latent mutants, such as Charlotte Jones, have also lost their X-gene after M-Day.
- It appears that some characters, for an as of yet unexplained reason, have reverted to normal at a slower rate than others. This includes Beak, Stacy X, and Marrow (who still is not normal).
- Iceman is not repowered, since he never lost his powers in the first place. After the events of M-Day he developed a mental block, which suppressed his secondary mutation and blocked his powers, this may also be the case for Mulholland Black.
- Archangel only pretended to be depowered as seen in Generation M #4 and #5.
- As revealed in X-Factor #50, Layla Miller had powers before M-Day but not the ones she claimed. It appears she was unaffected by M-Day and just had different powers in the House Of M reality, or the only had those powers removed from the Decimation.
- View Below for further developments and clarifications on remaining mutants.
