Summary: X-tastic ^_^
Comment: I was scrolling through and alot of you were very negative. I'm not a "hard core" fan or anything, but I do enjoy reading x-men novels and comics. I like this particular series for 2 reasons, and the first is the graphics. I grew up watching the x-men cartoon, and if the characters look really funny, it's hard for me to get into it. I mean it's a comic book, the graphics should be important right? Second, I enjoyed the plot, and thought there was a nice bit of humor in it. Since I'm not a die hard x-fan, there was some confusing stuff, but other than that I really got into them, and can't wait for the next one. I have read many of the other series, and really found them boring (plus there graphic interpertations of the characters were a little....different) but don't take my word for it, take a chance and check it out! ^_^

Summary: Chuck Austen lets good guys be good guys.
Comment: The above review is about a different story. This story centers around an x-men story told partly from the point of view of a fish boy looking mutant recruited to Xavier's school(issues 410-412). He gets to ride along as the X-men investigate a distress call only to take on Juggernaut. Meanwhile we see a nurse who has fallen in love with one of her patient who is in a vegetable state, but a news report shows her that her patient might be a missing X-man. Back at the island a weakened Jugernaut explains that he called the X-men to help his best friend, Black Tom, who is undergoing a freakish secondary mutation. This is a touching story about friendship, love, and hope. I think Morrison's run on The New x-men is cool, but it makes everything sordid and icky. Morrison does this well, but too many comic writers try to do this and aren't as good. Austen just lets the good guys be good.

Summary: pretty good. beginning of chuck austen's run.
Comment: this collection includes UXM#410-415. the first three (and also the fourth) form a story arc involving juggernaut soliciting the help of the x-men and a nurse named annie caring for the catatonic havok and joining the staff at the institute to care for him. the fifth issue focuses on northstar, who joins the the institute also. the issue w/ northstar is extremely well-done and makes the whole book worth reading, in my opinion. the last issue focuses on iceman and northstar.
