Jean Grey becomes the Phoenix, and John Byrne joins the X-Men!, Feb 14 2011

This review is from: Marvel Masterworks: The Uncanny X-Men - Volume 2 (Paperback)
Volume 2 of the Uncanny X-Men picks up right where volume 1 left off, with the X-Men's space shuttle plummeting to earth. After crash landing in Jamaica Bay, everyone makes it to the surface except for Jean Grey, who is presumed dead. That's when everything changes, since Jean rises from the water, born again as Phoenix! Now, I'm not gonna get into the whole Phoenix/Jean thing in this review. First of all, I don't wanna spoil things for new readers, and second of all it lessens the impact of these stories, so let's just forget it. Anyways, a lot of interesting things happen in this collection. The team travels to Banshee's home in Ireland and does battle with Juggernaut and Black Tom Cassidy. Professor X has strange dreams of an alien, who turns out to be Princess Lilandra of the Shi'ar Empire. The team travels to another planet to save the universe, and meets the StarJammers and their leader Corsair, who is the father of one of the X-Men. On the creative side, Dave Cockrum leaves the title, and is replaced by John Byrne, kicking off one of the best comics collabarations of all! This is a must have for new fans of the X-Men!

Makes me miss the time when comics were affordable., Oct 19 2011

This review is from: Marvel Masterworks: The Uncanny X-Men - Volume 2 (Paperback)
I had just started collecting the X-Men around this time so I have many of the issues after these were published,(#116 forward to #162). Even though I have the prior issues, I like to keep them in plastic sleeves to preserve them. This volume fulfilled my need to take a trip back in time. I loved it. Too bad the next volume is so expensive.

This review is from: Marvel Masterworks: The Uncanny X-Men - Volume 2 (Paperback)
The stories when first published were so vivid and passionate, involving such intense and advanced topics as telepathy, Love, teseracts, unity, and transcendence! It is my pleasure to review them at this late date.
