I recently dove back in to X-Men comics thanks to my friend's boyfriend Anthony (who is a total X-Men freak). I decided to pick up after House of M, since everyone knows what happened in the end anyways--NO MORE MUTANTS and 90% of the mutant population loses their powers. The issues of New X-Men that I read (20-43) deal with the fall out of M-Day for the students (a select few in particular) at Xavier's School.
A few of the older mutants make several appearances but it's mostly just Emma Frost's team that's front and center. These guys include: Surge, Prodigy (depowered), Hellion, Dust, Elixir, Mercury, Rockslide, and my favorite X-23. Later on Pixie and Anole join after the help everyone not get killed by the Devil.
Basically, it's all a big set up for Messiah Complex but some interesting stuff happens that's pretty essential to the X-Men universe. These comics also began my fascination with X-23 who is basically the female version of Wolverine. Love.
