5.0 out of 5 stars The X-Men for a new generation, 19 Nov 2003
The X-Men, one of comic's longest running teams and a Marvel heavy hitter. Over the last four decades the X-Men have been through so much a new reader could be lost in the plethora of information and back-story. So why not re-write the series in a contemporary setting? The X-Men as of the new millennia?
Well that’s what they did here, and not only with the X-Men but also our friendly neighbourhood web-slinger Spiderman, the Earth's greatest heroes The Avengers and the Man Without Fear Daredevil; but all of that is off point...

Meet the X-Men. Students of Professor Charles Xavier at his Institute for Gifted Children. But these are more than your typical teens, these individuals are mutants. Gifted with an active X-gene that gives them extraordinary powers beyond any Homo Sapiens. Their purpose? To bring coexistence between 'normal' human and mutant kinds... but that's not going to be easy when humanity despises their kind and a group known as the Brotherhood of Mutants is going around being genetic terrorists. Thus the story begins... and the readers of today have their own X-Men to grow with.
The retelling of such a classic title could not have been handled much better; from the writing, to the artwork this is a worthy series to bear the X-Men title. A brilliant beginning to what has shaped up to be one of the greatest selling titles of the present day, a must for old and new collectors alike. It deserves the full 5 Stars rating.

4.0 out of 5 stars A superb sideways look at the X-Men, 26 Jun 2003
By S. Taylor (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Alternative histories can be a bit hit and miss, but Mark Millar (who hasn't written a book I didn't like yet) guides this parallel path for our favourite mutants in a fresh and edgy direction. The world is bleaker, the team less constrained (rule and taboo breaking are MUCH more regular occurances that with the regular straight-laced team).

A great read, the first in a seriously excellent series.

5.0 out of 5 stars A new take on the X-Men story, 23 April 2001
By logan294@aol.com (County Durham, England) - See all my reviews
Collecting the first few issues of the Ultimate X-Men comic, this will appeal to both long-time fans & newcomers alike. It is a great introduction to the X-Men story for people who enjoyed the movie but have never read the comics. It offers a new take on the story with some changes to character backgrounds & appearances but serves it's purpose well in retelling the early days of the X-Men. All of the familiar characters are here - Wolverine, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Beast, Storm, Xavier, Magneto, Toad & even the Sentinels. Writer Mark Millar does a great job with the storylines & Adam Kubert's artwork is excellent. With new costumes & more up to date looks, the X-Men have never looked better.If you like good story-telling, plenty of action & outstanding artwork then this book is highly reccommended.
