MESSIAH COMPLEX Part 9
Layla Miller and Madrox make a startling discovery but their chances of escape appear bleak. The hunt for the baby continues as the casualties mount and a shocking turn of events reveals a traitor!
"If you’re anything like me (please God, no) you’ve no doubt been reading the current Messiah CompleX event and thinking, “Yes, yes, all this action and adventure is well and good, but can’t I read about a futuristic internment camp as well?” Well, you can this week, as Mike Carey salvages the to-date pointless ‘Jamie and Layla in the future’ sub-plot with a truly chilling emphasis on bleakness and more bleakness, tossing in a little dash of dread to make it something special. All this, plus spill-over from last week’s epic tussle, the New X-Men continue to inexplicably contribute to the story, and an X-Man maybe sort-of is a traitor. And someone maybe sort-of dies. Find out next week, I guess."
