- Been there, done that, read the Claremont/Bryne run from years earlier.From the beginning, to the end of his run, Whedon treats all the characters, with the exceptions of Cyclops and Colossus, exactly as they were in the 70s. It's as if he wants to write about the heroes he grew up with, and wants to ignore all the character growth that occurred in the last few decades. Wolverine is nothing more than a smartass who drinks beer. Emma Frost is a royal witch, Kitty Pride is still unsure and scared and amatuerish, despite her having been a SHIELD agent, hopped around the ... Read More

- Joss Whedon and John Cassaday continue to astonishCollecting "Astonishing X-Men" issues 7-12, this trade paperback features the X-Men versus a newly-sentient Danger Room. Action, fisticuffs, technology gone wild, it's all here. Sound pretty simple, though, to support a six-issue arc? Well, in the old days of more panels per page and half the story being told with wordy captions, this would have probably been a slam-bang three parter. But I enjoy the fewer number of panels per page of modern comics (the larger panels show off the art more) as well ... Read More

- Don't Hold This Against JossWhile I had nothing but praise for mastermind Joss Whedon's first X-Men trade paperback (Astonishing X-Men Vol. 1: Gifted). I found the second arc of the series ("Dangerous") to be problematic. The story threads started and unfinished in "Gifted" were hardly touched at all in this arc, and a whole new, very confusing story starts. Those unfamiliar to pre-Whedon X-Men are going to find themselves lost when the mythology of "the Danger Room", Professor Xavier, and Genosha come into play, as they were ... Read More

- Graphic SF ReaderColossus returns in Astonishing X-Men. Not having read X-Men for a long time before I started with the Astonishing run I had no idea that this had happened, anyway, so if that was cheesy to those that had been following all along, it is proably understandable. Might be a 50% chance now that some of the main X-Men have died and returned. Anyway, not as good as the first trade.

- The astonishing still continue...This volume presents a new threat. An enemy that lives in the mansion years ago, and Professor X knew their existence, that make the X-men dissapointed about Professor Charles, the hole idea is to show that the Professor had to make many bad choices, terrible ones and kept them as a secret. This book has a good art but the story is not that good as the volume 1. If you like X-men, you probably have to read this book.
