DeciMation is this huge X-Men storyline that's just getting around to wrapping up now. Basically, the Scarlet Witch (Wanda Maximoff, Magneto's daughter), a powerful mutant with the ability to warp reality, fucking lost it and manipulated history such that Mutants were no longer an oppressed minority but an admired ruling elite. The superheroes of that new reality found out what she'd done and confronted her, this culminating in Hawkeye, who'd been dead in the original timeline, pwning her with an arrow. This development pissed Wanda off so much that she was all
"No
More
Mutants."
And restored the original history, but in doing so deprived 99% of the mutant population of their powers. The day on which this mass-depowering occurred is 'M-Day'.
