Chapter 2
Back at the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning Cyclops reminds Professor X who is now leading the X-Men, and puts Xavier to work with Beast to try to discover why the mutant's powers manifested at birth rather than as a teenager. Cyclops has already dispatched a small group of X-Men to locate a group of former Acolytes to try to discover the location of the Marauders and retrieve the mutant baby from them, and sent Emma Frost to retrieve Madrox, Layla Miller, and Rictor for their own missions. Having temporary erased Madrox's resentment towards the X-Men and desire not to work with them, Madrox and the others agreed to come along. Since losing his powers on M-Day, Rictor would scan as a normal human. For this reason Cyclops wants Rictor to infiltrate the Purifiers to determine their motivation. Madrox and Layla Miller are to locate Forge for details on their own mission.

Let me just start by saying that the Messiah Complex is taking a really good turn in the x-men comics! I enjoyed this comic as whole, but my issue was just a few things.... like u don't see the baby, purifiers....... but u do see the Murderers fight Wolverine and other x-men.... but still it was kinda minor in this issue... And cyclops was getting all angry (he needs to get his blood pressure checked) at Professor X....... but yeah it's pretty interesting to see how the x-men are handling this situation that needs to be dealt with quickly... AND i have a question, I was so happy that I might see storm in this issue, but i don't recall seeing her.... maybe she was? Pretty sure she wasnt... but then y was she on the cover???? well overall it's a good issue for the messiah complex, but not that action packed like I expected....... and too SHORT!
and loved the last few pages..... like learning about things we may not know about the x-men...
and yeah the preview for NEW EXILES convinced to me to buy the issue :)
