Product Description:
It's once again time for the X-Men to mutate. First, will Juggernaut -- one of the X-Men's toughest foes -- actually join their ranks? Then, as the high-flying Archangel goes through a major physical transformation that affects his powers, he encounters a threat to his family corporation. Finally, the entire roster gets a facelift as international artist Kia Asamiya redesigns their costumes.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Juggernut a good guy? Nice change.
I like seeing bad guys go good once in awhile. And here it actually makes sense. The story keeps me entertained and although people seem to be going crazy over it I'm enjoying these stories alot. Anyone on to volume 3!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Passable, mediocre, average, treading water.
Ok, Chuck Austen had his moments. He added some interesting ideas to the X-men cannon. The secondary mutation thing was quite well done, except for iceman whose secondary mutation was something he could do for ages only he couldn't do it anymore. Ne clearly didn't do his homework. The highlight of Austens run was his turning juggernaught into a good guy, it really worked.
The basic plot is that a bunch of similar mutants club together and set to become the dominant mutants species. In this ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Worse than anything before it.
This is the story where Austen really shows us what he can do. It seems as if he made it this bad on purpose.

Essentially, his point is that groups that mutate similarly have to stick together for some reason. And he illustrates this point with a group that has no personality whatsoever. Aside from Maximus Lobo, not one of them says anything that they aren't just repeating.

And as if it isn't bad enough, there's Kia Asamiya redesigning the costumes. It's like being stabbed ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Worse than Draco
Popular opinion says that Draco is Chuck Austens worst Uncanny XMen arc, which is saying alot since his whole run has been terrible. But the truth of the matter, according to me at least, is Dominant Species is his worst. Vaguely defined villains (are they werewolves, are they mutants, both?) take over some office building that Warren Worthington owns. Its really as exciting as the premise makes it out to be. Its terrible. Bad characterization, nonexistant motivation, and poor artwork to further ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not Worth Reading
These issues contain some very poor characterization, plotting, dialogue and art. The story involves extremely uninteresting mutant werewolves, who, defying logic, are involved in Warren Worthington's corporation. The characters do not act like themselves. They are completely changed to fit the plot and to add unneeded melodrama to the story. The dialogue is embarassing to read and the art does not flow with the story.
