Cover by ARIEL OLIVETTI. Messiah Complex Aftermath - Written by DUANE SWIERCZYNSKI Pencils by ARIEL OLIVETTI.
The second phase of the war that began in 'Messiah Complex' continues! There's nothing better than catching up with an old war buddy, especially after the years have really started to pile up. You can rummage through the bad old days, revel in the glory days, and down a few beers on the back porch while the sun slips down over the horizon. But not so for Cable. Because his old war buddy has shown up with news that everyone he knows or cares about is dead. The battles are over, and they're the only ones left on the losing side. If that weren't enough, Bishop, their former ally, is just one bullet away from achieving his objective: killing the baby, and erasing the last shred of hope for mutantkind. All of the battles Cable has won mean nothing. Because suddenly, all of these years later, he's in real danger of losing the war.

Cover by ADI GRANOV. X-Men: Manifest Destiny tie-in - Written by DUANE SWIERCZYNSKI Art by MICHEL LACOMBE & ARIEL OLIVETTI.
'HOMEFRONT' Special double-sized issue featuring the Uncanny X-Men! Meanwhile, back in the present . . . In the aftermath of the 'Messiah Complex' war, Cyclops took a leap of faith and allowed his son Cable to disappear into the time stream with the first new mutant birth since 'M' day -- and the future of the dwindling mutant population -- tucked under his arm. Weeks later, he still waits for a sign, however small, that he made the right decision. With evidence pointing to the fact that Bishop has jumped into the timestream and is hot on Cable's trail, the X-Men's unquestioned leader is about to make one final power move to protect the fate of mutantkind - one that he might come to regret.

Waiting for the World to End: Part 3 of 4 - Written by DUANE SWIERCZYNSKI Pencils & Cover by ARIEL OLIVETTI
Would you destroy the world, if it was your only chance to save it? No, not this world. A dark, twisted, miserable version of this world-one that shouldn't even exist. One that won't exist, if you succeed. That's the choice Lucas Bishop had to make it-and he'd make it again, in a heartbeat. He's been captured by X-Force, but it's all part of the plan. And while Cyclops thinks he's finally removed the only threat to the Cable and the mutant messiah child out in the timestream, he couldn't be more wrong. He's only made it worse.
