COLLECTING: UNCANNY X-MEN (1981) 298-300, 303-304, 315; X-FACTOR (1986) 92; X-FORCE (1991) 25; X-MEN UNLIMITED (1993) 2; X-MEN (1991) 25 Review: Classic X-Men story - but goes best with Wedding and Phalanx Covenant - This is THE Magneto story, going back and re-depicting his origins for the more adult 90s era. We get the death of his wife and daughter (adapted for the APOCALYPSE movie), and then his most iconic attempt at taking over the world, using Avalon, his asteroid base. The best character work is between him and Professor X. They are less the best friends as seen in the movies, and more classic hero and villain rivals. But this is interesting, as it requires Professor X to make a pretty difficult decision as to how to deal with this genocidal foe. It also allows Magento and his followers to do some pretty despicable stuff that is fun to read. Nightcrawler and Shadowcat crossover from Excalibur. Colossus makes some dark moves. Wolverine has a really rough go of it. The x-jet atmosphere re-entry sequence in Wolverine #75 alone makes the collection worth the read. Really thrilling, blockbuster action drawn by the likes of John Romita Jr. and Adam Kubert. THAT BEING SAID - this part of the story does intertwine with THE WEDDING OF CYCLOPS AND PHOENIX and PHALANX COVENANT to some degree, so it might be best to pick up all three at once. Although, you can read one after the other and basically still get what's going on. Review: Five Stars - The item was perfect, no worries , i received it it earlier then expected. Great Service!!!
