this storyline sucks. theres no buildup, no rising action, it basically starts off at the climax and plateaus, and ends too abruptly. thankfully the story was retconned out of continutiy very soon after it was released, and the 'damage' that happened to NYC was never mentioned by the other books of the marvel u; EVER.
this is the epitome of the reason people have started to stop reading the x books, characters that you hate, and hate that you hate them, and writers that need to be ... Read More

Grant Morrison did such a great job with the X-men, that it seems only logical that he would do a great job with the X-men's greatest foe, Magneto. That's what I thought going into this. Instead, we are treated to a complete bastardization of such a great and complex character. FINGER OF SHAME to Grant Morrison.
Magneto basically becomes a nazi rounding up humans for a concentration camp. Now if I remember correctly, didn't Magneto survive a concentration camp, and that's why he's so ... Read More

I haven't read much of Grant Morrison's run on X-Men yet, and I am slowly collecting TPBs to get caught up, since I had a three-year hiatus from comic collecting when Marvel announced that it's tone would become "darker and more adult."

The artwork was okay in this book. I prefer the more elegant detail of pencilers like Alan Davis on Uncanny, or the expressions on Cassaday's ... Read More

Planet X is a good storyline, if you don't count the complete bastardization of Magneto; the transformation of a Jewish Holocaust survivor to a sadistic, bumbling Nazi who herds humans into crematoriums and snorts up mutant drugs. It's no surprise that Marvel Comics retconned the story so soon after it came out.

Two reasons to buy this book:
1) Phil Jimenez's superbly detailed art printed on glossy paper.
2) This is a milestone in the X-Men's history (especially for Magneto and Jean Grey).
As for the writing, I've always found Grant Morrison a little too "showy" as a writer - a lot to show and very little to say. Furthermore, what little he has to say, he says it with very little heart. This volume contains the story of Jean Grey's death. Try comparing it with the original "Death ... Read More
