I've definitely read it before; I don't remember what series but it was highly probably the rebooted X-Men series (that largely became what the 90s cartoon was based on)...
But don't ask me about recent canon. What's "canon" is always shaky because the series has been running forever so anything and everything has been canon and retconned at some point. To me, Quicksilver and Scarlett Witch are Magneto's children, Rogue has Ms Marvel powers, and there are 151 Pokemon. I'm old.
