In "Chapter One" of X-Men: Messiah Complex, Cyclops makes a bold move, turning down Professor X’s help but calling on X-Factor to breach the Purifiers’ ranks and rescue a newborn mutant taken by the sinister Sinister. Written by Ed Brubaker and brought to life with sharp, dynamic art by Billy Tan and inks by Danny Miki and Allen Martinez, this pivotal issue sets the stage for a high-stakes mission with deep moral weight. The cover, a striking collaboration by Marc Silvestri, David Finch, and Joe Weems, captures the tension with intensity.
