About the book >.>.> In X-Men: Second Coming, the mutant population has dwindled to just 181 individuals who possess the X-gene, making it nearly impossible for the race to survive. For over a year, no new mutants have been born, until the arrival of Hope, a baby girl with extraordinary abilities. To ensure her safety, she is sent into the future under the guardianship of the mutant soldier Cable. Now returned to the present, Hope is regarded by many as the Mutant Messiah, the figure destined to lead mutants into a new era of peace and prosperity.However, the threat of extinction looms large, as the Human League, determined to eradicate the remaining mutants, seeks to eliminate Hope. Led by Bastion, a highly evolved Sentinel robot programmed for mutant eradication, the Human League views the death of Hope as crucial to securing the future for humanity. The narrative explores Hope's pivotal role in the survival of mutantkind, raising questions about her potential and the fate of a species on the brink of annihilation.As tensions escalate, readers delve into a gripping tale where the future of an entire race depends on one child's survival. Will Hope usher in a Second Coming for mutants, or will her demise herald the end of their existence? This storyline weaves together themes of hope, sacrifice, and the struggle for survival in a world that seeks to eradicate difference.

Présentation de l'éditeur: The climax of four years of X-Men stories is the X-Event of 2010! What started in HOUSE OF M with the Decimation of mutantkind and erupted with the first new mutant birth in MESSIAH COMPLEX finishes here. In the epic crossover SECOND COMING, Cyclops' faith pays off when Cable returns to the present with Hope, the girl he believes to be the mutant messiah. But will she be the savior or destroyer of mutantkind? We may never know, as she is the target of an initiative for mutant eradication unlike anything the X-Men have ever experienced. Many will be wounded. Several will die. Is Hope worth it?
