Spoilers: Jubilee and Pixie are hanging out in San Francisco, when a suicide bomber strikes. His blood is spilled all over the people who were around him, including Jubilee. In Utopia, Cyclops suspects there was more to the attack than just being the usual terrorists. Jubilee is brought to Utopia and tells Cyclops the bomber just tore off his coat and exploded. "Flesh burning in the daylight" makes Cyclops think they're dealing with vampires. Jubilee was infected during the bombing, an infection which is progressing rapidly. Dr. Nemesis reveals the virus was manufactured as they wanted to spread the virus and that there is no cure for the time being. At night, all the people infected with the virus during the bombing gather together in the woods, somehow hypnotized, to bring themselves to the Vampires in charge of the attack. The vampires are expecting Jubilee to show up at any minute, as she was the one "he" wanted. Back to the X-Men, Storm wants to check this story out, since she has history with Dracula. Scott forbids her, and sends Wolverine instead. Logan, Angel and Pixie find a safehouse full of weapons and fresh bodies, as well as a vampire woman who mentions the Lord of the Vampires being in town. Scott tells them to return, as it's time for the X-Men to hold a war council. Meanwhile, Jubilee tries to pretend she's okay, but she's growing paler and unconfortable with the sunlight by the second...Notes: No Psylocke.
“For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

I hope Betsy eventually becomes a regular in this new X-Men series.
I thought we want her on X-force
We want her EVERYWHERE; she should be the female "Wolverine" in every issue of every X-title and then the Avengers... and Avengers Academy
Um I love Besty but we don't need an overkill of her like wolverine! There are still other characters like Polaris and Dazzler who need to get some more attention.
Ps. I'm aware that Polaris is up in space still but come on she really deserves more credit since she's magneto's dauhter and one of the oldest female x-men
was any one else really disappointed with this comic?
no I actually liked it and am intrigued to see who shows up for next issue. I mean to me first issues are never the best because it establishes things too much so it wasn't great, but it wasn't the worst.
Dazzler definitely needs more exposure. Dazzler and Psylocke should be in a book together, and Northstar in there as well.
TERRIBLE COMIC I do not read any more!! Vampires???? Again??
Poor Betsy got more done in Exiles.
Actually i really turned my nose up at this when i heard about it but issue one was actually decent. Its very cruel that they are doing this to Jubilee i hope she can be cured.
Why does everyone like Northstar so much? I cant remember him once ever doing anything interesting ever. hes like the politically correct token nicey nice gay guy. Hes so neutered and mild they always put him with the disco queen or the fairy atleast Daken kicks ass, bangs dudes and has some balls.
@ anon above
I agree I totally dislike Northstar and the only reason people like him so much is because he's one of the only gays. I prefer Anole compared to Northstar.
Northstar has a huge ego, a nasty attitude and he thinks he's better than every one.
He even called sam a "slack jawed yokel" in X-men second coming: hellbound #2
