Once again it burns my britches as a lifelong DC fan to recommend a Marvel Comics title. Here I find myself totally loving the Messiah War, which doesn't even involve any major Marvel titles either. Cable and X-Force house the crossover event taking place in the future. The development that took place over many months of build up in the X-titles has paid off big time to make this a quality story. Many big names are in the story including Apocalypse, Deadpool, Bishop and Wolverine but it is the way that each person is portrayed that counts here. Every member of the story has their own agenda and how it is being played out is pure reading joy, right down to Deadpool's ridiculous comments. I am enjoying this story so much that I have backtracked and picked up the first trade of X-Force and can't wait to read it.
Do yourself a huge favor and read this story, it's another piece in the solid foundation of writing going down at Marvel Comics.
Heh. You said "burns my britches". How old are you? ;)
