Messiah complex part 11
The death of an x-man reveals answers to some of the mysteries surrounding the new mutant, and creates a host of questions. The baby falls into the hands of a major player in the conflict, but things aren't always as they seem. And it's high noon for x-force, the marauders and the x-men.
"Action! Excitement! Treachery! All this, PLUS the Madrox/Layla storyline actually matters now! Too bad that, in classic ‘Lost’-style storytelling, a very pertinent question regarding the nebulous motives of a major character is greeted with ‘we don’t have time for this’, which is easily translated into ‘please buy the next three issues and/or the new Cable ongoing for answers’. Bad form. Still, the pace is pretty relentless as we near the finish line, I suppose certain omissions can be overlooked when the full story works so well."
