Astonishing X-Men: Ultimate Collection, Volume 1 by Joss Whedon
4.0
This is a 4.5 star collection. The first six issues of this collection is basically perfect. Kitty Pryde has never been better than she is in Joss Whedon's hands for all the reasons that made Buffy such a revolutionary show. John Cassaday's art is peak of his powers good and Whedon knows when to get out of his way so much so that the big reveal in this series is actually wordless.
The last six issues are very, very good but just aren't on the level of the first six or what is to come later. I liked what Whedon was going for and I think he got every ounce of drama he could out of those issues and flips the script on the X-Men in a very interesting way but it is just impossible to live up to that early promise.
