Grant Morrison

Phil Jimenez

Magneto, X-Men's greatest adversary, was thought dead, but instead he was hiding, waiting in secret to make a move against the team that has thwarted his plans again and again.

Planet X

Sixteen million mutants dead... and that was just the beginning! In one bold stroke, writer Grant Morrison (The Invisibles, JLA, Fantastic Four: 1234) propelled the X-Men into the 21st century - masterminding a challenging new direction for Marvel's mutant heroes that began with the destruction of Genosha and never let up. Regarded as the most innovative thinker of the current comic-book renaissance, Morrison proceeded to turn the mutant-hero genre on its ear. Gone were the gaudy spandex costumes - replaced by slick, black leather and an attitude to match. Now, his entire Eisner Award-nominated run on New X-Men is collected in one deluxe hardcover! Collects New X-Men #114-154 and Annual 2001

New X-Men 3

Some great ideas here (and even execution, and art!), but highly uneven.

New X-Men, Volume 1

Dimitris Papastergiou

Re-reading after so many years.. (more than 10 I think) and well, even though I still remember the awesome moments in it, it's still 10-plus more fun to read than any current X-Men storyline for the past couple of years (minus the House of X/Powers of X because I haven't read that yet, which is the reason I'm reading New X-Men again now, since a friend recommended to me to reread this one before HoX-PoX, dunno why, but we'll see)

Anyway, it's so much fun to read this, from the characters the plot the dialogues everything, right down to the artwork which I find awesome! Even though I get why some complain about, chars having different looks and whatnot, but Frank Quitely is an amazing artist and he pretty much made them his X-Men!

Highly Recommended for X-Men fans!

New X-Men, Volume 3

Miles below the surface of the Chinese mainland, a mutant named Xorn is bound in chains, imprisoned since birth and treated like an animal by his own governemt, but when the X-Men free Xorn, he must be stopped from using his mutant powers to seek revengeupon his former tormentors.

New X-Men, Volume 7

Aaaand Grant made it great.. again!

Wish I had more to read after this one.

Love the story & artwork.

I liked it.

I would definitely recommend Morrison's X-Men to fans of the title, but it's definitely not as good and interesting as the first arc.

Great artwork as always!

New X-Men, Volume 5

Continues to be solid. Plot and art. And even though I like Bachalo's art, I still miss Quitely's.

Ahmed Bakr

3/5

Tragic, had some good character moments, and great art. Otherwise... yeah. I think even less of it now than the first time I've read it.
