    By now you know that Lucas Bishop-former cop, renegade X-Man-refuses to rest until he's killed the so-called 'mutant messiah.' But do you know why? To answer that question you have to look into Bishop's past which actually means jumping 50 years into the future, when his parents barely escaped a nuclear holocaust, only to land in the most brutal 'mutant relocation' camp in the world. There, a young Bishop first heard the horror stories about the green-eyed monster that ushered in the the downfall of mutantkind, and swore vengeance - embarking on a life-long, time-hopping mission that begins here, in this special three-part mini-series. You haven't heard the 'Messiah Complex' story until you've heard Bishop's side of the story.

    Bishop's origin story or Messiah Complex story filler...? 0

    X-Men: The Times & Life of Lucas Bishop #1 - Part One: Born To Die by salarymanjam on June 02, 2010

    First off, I loved this story. This story had to be told after the events of Messiah Complex and I am glad it did.  Duane Swierczynski wastes no time drawing you into the inhuman and brutal upbringing of Lucas Bishop - mutant prison camps, experimentation, abuse and the eventual ripping apart of his world. The flow and pace (not just this issue but the entire volume) was just right, but, since it is only a three issue volume details are skimmed over. Most importantly, the key points, such as Bis...
