The sequel to 2007's MESSIAH COMPLEX continues here! 'Messiah War,' the much-anticipated sequel to 'Messiah Complex,' continues here! For the first time, Cable's been separated from the girl he's sworn to raise and protect - Hope, the so-called 'Mutant Messiah' - and now she's in the hands of his greatest enemy! Meanwhile, X-Force, sent by Cyclops on a desperate rescue mission to the deep future, scrambles to find their way out of a trap that will kill them in matter of hours. And if that's not enough, an old - some might say ancient - enemy of the X-Men has reared his ugly head one last time.
