During Messiah CompleX, Charles Xavier was shot in the head by Bishop (though he was aiming for Cable, who was fleeing with the first mutant child born since M Day). His body disappeared within seconds. Of course, since this is comic book land, no body means no death (and often times, a body still doesn't mean death!), so it's no surprise that Charles Xavier isn't actually dead. His brain suffered a lot of damage, and while he is technically "healed," he has lost many of his memories. This story is Charles trying to regain those memories, all the while fleeing from those who would end his life. I think that the book is good, although not great. Charles Xavier has never been my favorite character, but after reading "X-Men: Original Sin" and enjoying that, I decided to backtrack and see what he'd been up to before that arc. The art is all over the place; there are six pencilers involved in this trade alone, some of them good, some of them not so good. I'd have preferred that they'd stuck with one artist for the entirety of the arc. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
In the wake of Messiah CompleX, there are no X-Men and mutantkind still lies in ruin. With Magneto depowered and Xavier gravely injured, it seems their reign as the preeminent mutants has ended. But neither of these old soldiers is willing to go gentle into that good night No library descriptions found. |

After the events of Messiah Complex, Professor X is trying to piece his life back together, literally. After being shot in the head by Bishop, Xavier's body is taken by the Acolytes and Exodus repairs the damage to his brain, but isn't able to reconstruct all the memories in his head, so Xavier then goes on a mission to meet up with people from his past so that he can read their memories of him and try to reconstruct his life, even though he doesn't necessarily like the person that he was.
Overall, not a bad story. I actually enjoyed this Messiah Complex follow up story a little more than the story running concurrently over in Uncanny X-Men. The use of different artists when they were jumping back and forth between flashbacks and now was a nice touch. ( )
