I can only imagine how great it must have been for you to open this book only to see “Professor Xavier is a jerk!” To have this series start with a reference to your very first X-Men book had to have been surreal. It’s like it was written specifically for you. How cool is that. And how sad is it that I know what your first X-Men book was when I can’t even remember what my first X-Men book was? It must have been Grant Morrison’s New X-Men. But it might have been Bendis’s X-Men (which I still feel is totally underrated. Maybe because it was my first?). Anyway, I’m so glad to have this in oversized. Great book.

Like in the '"older comics" it is not big deal because there are white borders and there are not splash pages, so it doesn't bother so much, but in new it is a "little" problem, personally I buy this books because there wasn't any gutter loose ;-). Unluckily I have preorder many of new books, if I new they changed printing house, I would think twice about it ;-) But there are positives it isn't as bad as it was in "Deadpool & X-Force Omnibus" ;-) Regards.

The Whedon xmen run is amazing. I get claremont and movie xmen vibes. Great stuff and the ending battle is badass with all the heroes teaming up and kinda sad with Kitty's predicament at the end. Love John Cassaday's art as well. Can't say enough good things about this run.

Ahhhh Astonishing X-Men. I'm old enough to remenber the excitment auround the book each month when it was coming out. I agree, it's clearly one of my favorite run on X-Men, with some of my favorite moment in x-men history. AXM # 23 being probably one of my favorite X-Men issue of all time. It still gives me chills more than 15 years later : "lies, the great human weapon. What others lies have you told !!!" i can almost quote some dialogues by memory !
@NearMintCondition
@NearMintCondition 4 года назад
DOOD!!! What other lies have you told!!!? How is it that so many writers can get Cyclops so wrong, but in that single issues, hell that last panel of issue 23 Whedon made him a complete badass. My favorite line for me is still: I got two words for you, bub.

@samy7337 4 года назад
@@NearMintCondition Exactly, this book is just shock full of moments like this. Little gems of caracterisation for each member of the team. In cyclops case, I feel Whedon perfectly followed up on the work of Morrison on the character, and that's why I love this issue so much. Finishing this issue on "to me my x-men" was just perfect !

I can see why the binding is a bit tighter. Kind of an... "eye opener" for me. Heh. But like you said, not a deal breaker. A bit tighter for that binding but it looks held together. I'm sure once we open the book and do the stretch exercise and read it, it should turn out fine.

Great review @Omar, thanks a lot. I cannot wait for it. I liked it that besides reviewing the build of the book you also mention something about the story and why you love it so much. I was wondering about the Valiant books quality, in terms of story/art/build. I am completely clueless about it. Are you ever going to review any Valiant hardcover?

I've got the old print, and recently when I cracked it open for a re-read, the pages seemed to stick to each other and I had to slowly pry them apart. Realised that the glossy coloured parts of the page were the culprit. Regardless, I'll keep it just cos it was one of my very first few omnis.

@milocibelli5391

You definitely could start here, but I would recommend reading Grant Morrison's New X-Men series first. It directly precedes this, and helps you understand a lot of the characters (mainly Scott and Emma). I haven't finished Whedon's X-Men, but so far I'd say Morrison's is much better. But if you really want, you could totally start here.
