In the last year, only one mutant has been born: the girl called Hope, believed to be the Mutant Messiah who will re-ignite the species. Hope was raised in the future by Cable, and now the two have returned! But the Human League is bent on eradicating Earth's final mutants - and they see Hope's death as the final nail in the coffin.

An epic crossover saga dealing with the fallout from House of M. There was a volume between these two, but it didn't sound interesting. I haven't read much X-Men comics, most of my knowledge is from TV shows and movies, but this was fairly easy to follow and an excellent story. The consequences are numerous and, while I'm sure they are eventually retconned, feel substantial. Art is mostly solid, but some seriously wonky Cyclops masks... 😅

tokorowilliamwallace Nice, a Mr. Sinister arc? 7mo
TieDyeDude @tokorowilliamwallace Not really. I was kinda hoping it was, because I'm not super familiar with him, but he doesn't have much of a role in this story. 7mo
tokorowilliamwallace @TieDyeDude Aww, such a shame; he used to be a favorite villain of mine and my friend's. 7mo
