Well I have to say that the Messiah War was a great event. This is what all events should be, a simple story that is coherent and flows from a to b. Also, there were no tie- in issues and no extra over-expensive one shots, the entire plot and action was in the two books. Plus Clayton  Crain pencils in this issue is so awsome. His one page of  Apocalypse and Arcangel is so gorgeous. Its one of the few sketches I would buy outright. In the end, this series did one thing that was truly surprising, it got me to buy Cable and X force next month. i can not wait to see what happens next month
