Product Description:
When X-Men #1 first appeared in the fall of 1991 it shook comicdom to its core. This is a classic collection of the earliest issues of X-Men, introducing many of the characters and themes that continue today. Color illustrations throughout.

When I was a youth I regularly grew frustrated with having to wait at least a month for the next installment of the X-Men comic to arrive. Their adventures were generally multi-part, sometimes running for three issues. Furthermore, their saga has many elements of a continuous story, so if you missed an issue, there were logical holes in several subsequent issues.
This book contains "Uncanny X-Men" #145-161 and "X-Men Annual" #3-5, therefore the storyline is continuous and complete. The continuity ... Read More

I honestly don't get the appeal of these books. Why bother making (or reading) black & white reprints of classic four-color comics...? I mean, yeah, the stories are still great and the original comics are hard to find, but a huge part of what made these comics great was the eye-popping artwork, including the bright primary colors: reading them in dull B&W is just plain wrong.

Arcade and Murderworld, Starjammers, Dracula, Arkon and more great X-Men. Arcade is one of those crazy nut supervillains you love, with his weird sense of honor and gamesmanship. The Starjammers are fab, as Cyclops learns about his past. Storm encounters some more personal issues, are various men want to be involved with her. Ok, Dracula is an undead vampire, but he still fancies her in the same way Arkon does.

Ok, ok, I should say comic book junkie, because that's what they were called when I first started reading them some decades ago. This whole series of Essential X-men books are a fun read unless you get bogged down in details. I never did, I just enjoyed reading them. This is a great book. Enjoy

These stories are amazing. Pure and simple. After I read the Dark Phoenix Saga-well, of course, no X-Men story will ever equal the depth, perception, and feeling of those nine issues, but this volume comes close enough to be hailed. From the opening arc concerning Doctor Doom and Murderworld to the spellbinding cliffhanger on the final page, it's a great thrill form beginning to end.
You get to see some X-characters that don't get a lot of steam these days like Polaris and Banshee really work ... Read More
