Summary: still going strong
Comment: This contains New X-Men #21-25. And it is still going strong. The story is well written with great characters. The art is a little spotty here, but it is such a great story that that can be forgiven.

Summary: Just plain good X-reading!!!
Comment: I have enjoyed the Ultimate X-Men title as a reader of the Graphic Novels only. I started with the first two books in paperback form, but after this edition of books 3 and 4 in Hardcover I wouldnt buy or recommend anything else! In fact, if I could I would buy the first Hardcover edition of the series.
The book itself is beautifully made and very sturdy. Not to mention looking pretty good on a bookcase. And it's just really cool to have so many pages of good reading in one place.
The stories themselves are pretty good two. Mark Millar's writing page by page (as opposed to just the plot) is really bloody good and I'm getting more into the characters that aren't Wolverine more than ever before. The artwork is mostly good tho I wish Andy Kubert would have done more issues.
Needless to say it was a page-turner and tho I'm not an age-old fan who was dissapointed with the Phoenix intro - I was a fan from the start of the second X-Men series and I really like the return to just plain adventure stories with a writer who has the courage to mix everything up (for the better). And also, in combination with the previous Hardcover (or Vols 1 & 2 of the Trade Paperback) it's a great read for any new readers.

Summary: This book destroyed the Phoenix Saga!
Comment: The Phoenix saga is in my opinion in the top 3 most important events in any X-men incarnation. This story is SOO good, that it has become one of a few storylines that is and forever will be in every X-men incarnation (of course the incarnation would have to have Jean Grey in it). Unfortunatley this book makes a mockary of the Phoenix saga. First off, the Phoenix is a god is immense power, no change there. But the thing that [...] me off is how easily Xavier managed to stop Jean(Dark Phoenix). As I recall, the original Phoenix saga lasted many issues, this book turns it into like 5 pages. Dark Phoenix is made into a wuss. I dont care how strond Xavier is, he cannot stop the Dark Phoenix in 5 minutes, OK! This book took one of my favorite characters, spat on it, crapped on it, pee'd on it, buried it alive and fed it to the dogs. I hope that the phoenix will be better percieved in future stories. Other than that, it was a pretty good book... hehe...
