New X-Men #46
“Messiah CompleX, Chapter 12”
Writer: Christopher Yost & Craig Kyle
Penciler: Humberto Ramos
Inker: Carlos Cuevas with Dave Meikis

I’m an idiot.

For some unknown reason, I assumed that ‘Messiah CompleX’ ran for 12 issues.

It doesn’t. It runs for 13.

So imagine my surprise when I got to the last page and the story didn’t end.

Since I’m not a regular reader of every X-Men comic known to mankind, I must admit I’m a little confused by who everyone is. And while I like Ramos’ style, it doesn’t exactly make my job of identifying characters any easier.

And is there a point of Predator X running through this crossover?

On the Wolverine front, I hope this takes place before Wolverine #61 because Scalphunter puts some serious (and clever) hurt on Wolverine. Ut!
