Average Rating: 
Rating:  - sorely disappointed
As a fan of the X-Men and all the other X-titles, I was sorely disappointed in this graphic novel.
The beginning, which featured a baseball game with the residents of X-Mansion, was perhaps the only best thing of the entire novel. After that, it just went downhill!
The battle with the Fury just simply bored me. The Fury, to me, was simply a repackaged version of the Sentinels or Nimrod. Except this time, it's...well, computer vs. computer (Sage).

Rating:  - Yes claremont returns, but is this really a good thing?
Over the past 30 years the X-men have grown to be one of marvels most induring and lasting icons in the comic medium. Chris Claremont was the writer for the series from 1970 something (whenever the giant sized issue revamped the entire cast) to about 1992-or 1993ish. Between that time the X-men went from obscure comic geek fandom to a well established franchise. They have become just as famous as Batman, Wonder Woman, Superman, or any other superhero or superhero group you can think of. And for 20 years or ... Read More
Rating:  - Uncanny X-Men
The artistry, as always, is top of the line. The story lines are familiar insofar as they don't have charecters with different powers than you grew up with them having. Also the story keeps the pace up to keep you interested.
Rating:  - The REAL X-Men return!
Having read the X-Men sporadically since Claremont left in '92, I thought I'd give this a shot with his return. In only a few pages the magic was already back in the X-Men. His style of gearing each issue as if someone is picking up X-Men for the first time was a welcome style since its been so long for me. I picked up Grant Morrison's first few issues and was appalled to say the least. I can't describe how exactly, but nobody, I mean NOBODY writes the X-Men's words like Claremont. It's as if he has a direct ... Read More
Rating: - Fans Only Please
This book is really only mediocre at best however for diehard fans it is a must to read if you are someone who is only interested in the X-men for the movies or an animated series than you would be much better off reading Astonishing X-men.
