Don't know how much time has passed, but it seems like forever since I've eaten. If this note is found, alert the authorities.

THE SCOOP: A new story arc! A new artist! THE STORY: An excerpt from the ransom note delivered to millionaire Malcolm Reeves: "We have your daughter, and though she was born to be one of us, we'll return her to you only after our demands have been met. For the hate-spewing bigot you are, we know you donate millions to butcher-doctors that perform untold atrocities on young mothers and their "unwanted" babies. Now the Brotherhood would like to see your generosity. If you don't contribute to our worthy cause, you can be assured of two things. One, the world will know that your only offspring is what you've conspired to kill: a mutant! And two, you will see your daughter again, when she returns - as your assassin!"
THE BUZZ: "Why it's cool: because the 'bad guys' get their say! Plus, it's written by the mysterious X, whose identity even Marvel ain't lettin' on about. What more of a hook could you want?" -Wizard
THE CREATORS: Enigmatic writer X is joined for the next four issues by penciler Leonardo Manco (DOOM) and cover artist Barry Windsor-Smith!

A new message from X: "Genetic testing in schools to ferret out those young men and women who may be mutants? This will prove to be your greatest mistake. Already, you have pushed one more to us. His powers have manifested - and he will return your prejudice in kind. You have been warned. To the demagogue Ludlum: continue to spew your racist rhetoric at your own risk. For every word you utter, we will take action. For every anti-mutant phrase that you speak, another human will pay the ultimate price."

A message from X: "Today we came one step closer to overthrowing your empire of lies. Today we recruited another youth to our cause. Perhaps this doesn't matter to you. After all, it was only one. One who you ignored and neglected and condemned to a life of self-denial. We could not allow such cruelty, and some day - perhaps soon - you will curse yourselves for casting him aside. Today we gained a brother - and you gained an enemy who will not rest until you are a fading memory."

THE SCOOP: The dark side of the mutant war gets their own ongoing series! A MESSAGE FROM THE FRONTLINES: "Perhaps you think you know us. That costumed charlatans such as Magneto and his ilk are representative of our people. You are wrong. We are your neighbors. Your co-workers. The homeless you callously step over on your way to your safe, meaningless jobs. We will not announce ourselves with bright red uniforms or gloating public pronouncements. We will simply strike. When you see your streets run scarlet with blood, and your cities aflame, you will know your time is at an end. "You have taken our homes from us. Our families. Our future. You despoil the world we were meant to inherit, plundering the resources that rightfully belong to our children. No more... from this day forward, The Brotherhood declares open war on humanity. Its end will not come until the power to govern rests in our hands. Or until you are, once and for all, extinct."
