A review by amypalmer
The Uncanny X-Men Omnibus, Vol. 1 by Chris Claremont

5.0

This is a classic. I love that this contains the beginning of the phoenix saga, the films have never done the phoenix justice. It is a slow burner and you see the corruption build and build. I cant wait for dark phoenix in volume 2. This also has the introduction of some beloved characters. Storm and nightcrawler in particular stand out to me as great first introductions, personalities and back stories. The art is also great and much better than other comics of the time.


True it may be outdated in parts but it is still an amazing collection of the x-men. It actually feels a lot more modern than some of the other marvel comics from this era.
