A solidly entertaining launch to this team. I loved Team Leader Kitty getting her "To me, my X-Men!" moment. The main plot of this arc was...a lil dumb...but, you know, in a comics way.

Another great installment of the X-Men series! Kitty Pryde is one of my favorite characters in the X-Men universe, and she has a lead role in this one. It's interesting to see this particular group of X-Men with Kitty as the leader. I think I'll keep reading this series.

Fan-damn-tastic. Talk about "back to basics". Wasn't really excited for the "color" titles. No idea why. I guess cause they all came out at the same time and it seemed like some kind of X-Title reboot stunt. Well maybe it was, but fuck if it didn't work! Gold was definitely my favorite of the titles, with Red taking a close second. This one really packs a punch, starts off with a bang and doesn't let off the throttle til the end.
Recommended for: Anyone who claims to be a fan of X-Men. It's just so good. I feel like it's going to be one of those classics that will be impossible for people to hate in a couple decades. Jump on board the ship now, we're going exciting places!

Growing up, my X-Men were the Claremont X-men.
For so long now I feel like the X titles have been pretty lackluster. Sure, there are some blips of greatness scattered in there, but for the most part I feel like our Mutants have been chasing the glory days. Don't get me wrong...I'm a pretty big Mutant fan...They're my Marvel Jam...I just feel like they've gotten really convoluted and hard to manage in the past 7-8 years.
This one, however, was fun. They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and it's no secret that the team on this title are trying to capture that Claremont spark. And it works, for the most part. Nothing life changing, but I got 6 issues that didn't confuse the fuck outta me and they didn't bore me to death either. That's a good step in the right direction for an X title these days.
Also...I'm a sucker for a good Sentinel bash and in this volume, we get a self-aware mutant Sentinel nano-swarm...which...you know...is pretty freaking awesome!
Anyways, I'm trying not to get my hopes up. I liked this first volume. Fingers are crossed that it only gets better from here...

Como su propio nombre indica, es una vuelta a los X-Men originales, pero eso no lo hace algo rancio o desfasado. Al contrario, le dan un giro a los acontecimientos con los mismos personajes que todos amamos. Gracias por esta vuelta; creo que era algo que la franquicia necesitaba bastante.
