The X-Men Target The Purifiers In Messiah CompleX Chapter 3!

The hotly anticipated Messiah Complex continues with Chapter Three, appearing in X-Factor #25, as the X-Men set their sights on the mutant-hating Purifiers! Written by acclaimed author Peter David and with powerful art from Scot Eaton (X-Men: Endangered Species One-Shot), this third chapter of the first major X-Men event in ten years continues the X-Men's quest to find the location of the new mutant child. And just what role do Madrox and Layla play in this quest? The shocking answer is revealed!

The early reviews are in and critics are raving about Messiah Complex. "You have a rock-solid premise here with multiple antagonists and different teams of heroes that approach things in different ways," said Troy Brownfield of Newsarama.Com. "I can tell you that with the first issue . . . they got me."

As the X-Men fight a war on multiple fronts to find the new mutant and protect their species, will their greatest threat come from within? One will lead them, one will betray them…and there's one event that will define them—Messiah Complex!
