5.0 out of 5 stars Morrison Ups The Tempo And Goes All Out, 14 Sep 2002
This volume is a direct continuation of Morrison's first New X-Men compilation, E For Extinction. And if you (like me) thought that was good, this is even better.

Morrison manages to stick to his self-declared aim to bring the X-Men back to the theme of being (mutant) humanitarian aid workers while providing a slick incredibly fast-paced and exciting story that will keep you on tenterhooks and not allow you to put it down until you're finished and screaming for more.

With the New X-Men series Morrison has also simplified the continuity and reduced it back to the classic characters (Cyclops, Jean Grey, Prof X and everyone's favourite Wolverine) and dumped much of the old continuity for those of us who haven't had the good fortune of reading every issue for the past twenty years.

As such this volume and E For Extinction can be read by anyone who has never read the X-Men or who has seen the film and wants to know if the comic really is any good. This story should answer those doubts with a resounding yes.

4.0 out of 5 stars Imperial, 4 Mar 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: New X-Men Volume 2: Imperial TPB: Imperial v. 2 (Paperback)
Grant Morrison delivers a decent sequel to E is for Extinction in the form of imperial. It has good art and the story moves along at a nice enough pace to allow readers to become immersed in the world of the xmen.

Imperial sees the conclusion to the cassandra nova saga while also introducing some new characters and developing old ones. An excellent book and definitely a reccomended read

3.0 out of 5 stars Aargh! This volume is so frustrating!, 25 Sep 2008
By Bob Grist (London) - See all my reviews
  
This review is from: New X-Men Volume 2: Imperial TPB: Imperial v. 2 (Paperback)
Having thoroughly enjoyed both All Star Superman and JLA: Earth 2 by the fantastic writer/artist team of Grant Morrison & Frank Quitely, I was highly excited by their work on the New X-Men series. Now, this volume has three artists working on it. Mr Quitely's work is exceptional, and those chapters where he illustrates are highly re-readable. The second artist is perfectly fine too, though his work is not as sublimely beautiful. But the problem is is that someone called Igor Kordy illustrates three of the chapters in this book and his artwork (if, indeed, it can be called that) is so utterly atrocious, so terribly dire, so woefully bad, that I really hated reading those chapters. I would rush through them, which is a real shame as that stopped me appreciating the nuances in Grant Morrison's writing.

So, all in all, this volume is a mix of utter genius and utter horribleness. I hope never to read anything illustrated by Igor Kordy again, though I fear and believe that his work is to be found in latter volumes of the New X-Men run, and I want to complete the story. I will approach those future chapters with gritted teeth and, doubtless, rush through them as well.

So, do I think this is worth buying?...indeed, for anything not illustrated by Igor Kordy which, thankfully, is a large chunk of this volume.
