Collects X-Men: Second Coming (2010) #1-2, Uncanny X-Men (1963) #523-525, New Mutants (2009) #12-14, X-Men: Legacy (2008) #235-237, X-Force (2008) #26-28. 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?

In this series of tutorials we’ll learn how to use tracker and roto nodes in NUKE to quickly create a solid matte. By using each node for their specific strength, we’ll be able to achieve production-quality results much faster than using just hand keying. We’ll begin this project by learning the basics of using trackers to speed up the rotoscoping process by removing camera jitter, translation, rotation and scaling. We’ll then dive into our main project where we will use a combination of trackers, roto nodes and animation to create a clean mask for our foreground actor’s face and hand. We’ll learn many techniques to speed up our rotoscoping workflow and how we can use animation principles to create solid movement.
