Customer Reviews

this is the end???

I thought this was a story that was crammed into three novels. The graphics are good, but the story line seemed rushed.

Major Revelations (This truely in continuity)! Madelyne Pryor!

There are many reasons to buy X-MEN the END. But this is the reason why all of the x-men fans should. The Original Phoenix (from the Dark Phoenix Saga) was always Madelyne Pryor! Go back to the Essential X-men and see the build up. This build up from so many years of X-BOOKS (Further adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix, Dark Phoenix Saga, Inferno, and also the issues of uncanny X-men which featured Deathbird and Bishop) And that is only the beginning. Read this ASAP. It's the only end we will ever get.

The best of Claremont's finale

The third and final chapter in legendary scribe Chris Claremont's finale for the X-Men, Men and X-Men picks up with Professor Xavier and Magneto striking back at those responsible for the attacks on our merry mutants. In the meantime, Gambit is in disguise as Sinister and looking to avenge the death of Rogue, Bishop meets the daughter he never knew he had, and those that are still alive join together for the final battle which features the Brood, the Shi'ar, Phoenix, Cassandra Nova, and more X-Men than you could shake a finger at. Men and X-Men is definitely the best chapter in the X-Men: The End series, with Claremont's penchant for melodrama coming off better here than it has previously. Sean Chen's artwork is once again great to look at as well. All in all, if you dug the first two chapters in the X-Men: The End series, chances are you'll dig this too.

Suprisingly good

I thought the first two books in this series were a little lack lustre but this really did float my boat! This is what they should have done right from the start. I can see that Chris Claremont realised that he was writing the end to one of the biggest franchises in comics and thought " oh s#*t I better pull finger and write something good". My only complaint is the actual end...of the end because wolverine is miraculously alive still. Read the book and you'll see what i mean.
