Product Description:
Sixteen million mutants dead - and that was just the beginning! In one bold stroke, writer Grant Morrison (All-Star Superman, Batman) propelled the X-Men into the 21st century, masterminding a challenging new direction for Marvel's mutant heroes that began with the destruction of Genosha and never let up. Regarded as the most innovative thinker of the current comic-book renaissance, Morrison proceeded to turn the mutant-hero genre on its ear. Gone were the gaudy spandex costumes - replaced by slick, black leather and an attitude to match. Now, his entire Eisner Award-nominated run on New X-Men is collected across three titanic trade paperbacks! Collects New X-Men #114-126, and Annual 2001.

For years the X-Men have claimed to be advancing mutant rights, but what have they actually accomplished? They've defended against threats, sure--but they haven't really done much beyond that. Finally, the X-Men get proactive in their mission. Writer Grant Morrison, with a host of artists including the ultra-talented Frank Quitely, Leinil Yu, and Ethan Van Sciver, reinvents the X-Men as an elite mutant search-and-rescue unit whose main priority is teaching the next generation of mutant youths the ...

I have a run of X-Men Comics that runs from 1976 right up untill this guy started on the X-Men titles. If you don't know anything about the older X-Men stories you might love this trash but if you were a loyal X-Men fan like me... Frankly I hate his work. He changed the X-Men into something I just didn't want to read anymore. I find his work disjointed, and tiresome to read.

Grant Morrison is probably one of the most imaginative minds in the whole comic industry, and the first 1/3 of his run on "The New X-Men" is simply one of the most amazing reads I have ever been exposed to. the X-men have always been a series that had a lot of political and social themes intertwined within it, and Morrison creates a fantastic reality through fantasy that have all the political happenings that are going on now. "New X-Men by Grant Morrison: Ultimate Collection Volume 1" is a great ... Read More

Grant Morrison's X-Men run is probably the best X-Men run in the last decade. Ironically, it's a little different than other classic runs... and that's what makes it so special.
Without spoiling anything, Grant changes the status quo with the X-Men without really changing core concepts of the X-Men. His stories turn the entire framework for the X-Men on their face. The stories are well-plotted, and this collection really does read like one whole story. There's lots of nice character moments, ... Read More

In early 2000, Marvel managed to wrestle Grant Morrison, arguably the most influential writer in comics (moreso than Alan Moore, in my opinion), and gave him the flagging X-Men title.
In the first arc, he destroyed the mutant country of Genosha, created an ultra powerful foil to Professor Xavier, put the X-Men at odds with the Shi'ar empire, saved the world, and started to degrade and destroy the relationship that Jean and Scott had.
Morrison's stories in the volume are big, operatic, and loud, ... Read More
