The biggest and best adventures of Marvel's mighty mutants -- these are the X-Men Milestones! 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, " it's always been a bad time to be a mutant, but this must be the worst. Mutantkind has never had it worse. The mutant population is down to a mere 181. In the last year, only one mutant has been born: the girl called Hope, believed to be the Mutant Messiah who will reignite the species. Hope was raised in the future by Cable, and now the two have returned! But the Human League is bent on eradicating Earth's final mutants -- and they see Hope's death as the final nail in the coffin. As Bastion and his allies unleash a merciless all-out assault on the X-Men, everything rests on Hope's shoulders. Will this be mutantkind's end?
