Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Meh.
"Ultimate X-Men, v.12" was pretty underwhelming. To begin with, it's very short -- only reprinting three regular issues and an Ultimates Annual adventure. In one story, Professor X is caught up in the middle of a bank robbery, and rallies his fellow hostages into defeating the bad buy. The script touches lightly on a few interesting ideas -- Prof. X tapping into the minds of regular humans to prod them into heroic action -- but mostly the issue felt like filler. Then comes a two-part story featuring ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - 1/3 good for me
if you like Storm and Lady Deathstrike and Wolverine, in that order, good.

If you like Prof.X's powers, are interested in everyday uses for telepathy and bank thiefs, good.

These are the three stories, and they are okay. The Storm one was especially catching, but overall you look back and say hey that wasnt very productive. So be prepared ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Vaughan's Worst
Ultimate X-Men Vol 12 is a collection of Ultimate X-Men 58-60 and Annual 1 and is arguably, the worse Ultimate X-Men so far. Brian K Vaughan had a good start on the series, taking the character of Sinister and warping him to a degree previous authors wouldn't have taken a chance at, it worked. Here he does his best with Lady Deathstrike, and some character development.

I appreciate Vaughan's attempt to draw out new character in the Ultimate X-Men but Storm's personality seems to have gone out ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Still not impressed
I have been reading ultimate X-Men since its beginnings. It was a fun and enjoyable book up until the New Mutant arc. Since then the series has dropped the ball and it still hasn't recovered. It is an all right arc, but the annual is a must read. I suggest getting the book only because it is on sale for about 9 bucks and the annual will now cost you about 5 to 6 dollars.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - save your money
The worst graphic novel I've read. Simply awful. Save your money.
