I just finished reading the first chapter of Messiah CompleX and it doesn't disappoint in any category. The storyline is well paced and the pencils and coloring really bring everything to life. We start with a team of X-Men ((Cyclops, Emma Frost, Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Angel)) making their way to Alaska after Xavier discovered a new mutant birth which fried Cerebra. Arriving there, the X-Men discover that they are late. Both the Marauders and Purifiers beat them to the scene but the baby cannot be found. We do not know who got the baby as two Marauders and 6 Purifiers were discovered dead. However, I seem to think that the Marauders got the kid. The X-Men find a mother whose child has been killed by the Purifiers and with Emma using her powers to see what the woman saw. A pitched battle between the Marauders and Purifiers that levelled the town, though it might have still been the baby. Emma communicates with Angel to check a hospital and they find out that their were three births but only two birth certificates, meaning at least one was a mutant. Angered and frustrated the five X-Men go back in the Blackbird and return to Xavier's mansion to plan their next move.

Oh yeah. At the end there was a Predator X sighting
