This definitely wasn't the book I expected but I'm not surprised with how weird it is since it was done by Peach Momoko. While you can see how they're going to connect this to the X-Men this comic is basically a horror manga. It's actually pretty good and the art is so nice and lush but it won't be the X-Men book people are expecting and likely few want.
