Ultimate Xmen : The Tomorrow People & The Return of Weapon X ( Trade Paperback) – ★★★★☆
This is the first time that I’m reviewing a comics series so I really don’t know where to begin with. I’m going to start off by telling you that I didn’t get the actual trade paperback but the issues instead ( yes I like collecting them haha). I got the #1 to #12 which is the equivalent Volume 1 and Volume 2 of the trade paperback.
What is Ultimate Xmen about ? For starters, Marvel announced in summer 2001 a new line of titles: Ultimate Marvel. This includes Ultimate Spiderman , the Ultimates, Ultimate Fantastic 4, Ultimate Xmen, etc. The goal is to update these iconic characters to a more realistic present-day looks. I know the Ultimate project universe by Marvel has mixed reviews but from what I see so far, it is really tempting to start on reading other Ultimate series too .
For now, I really like the storyline. In Volume 1 ( #1 to #6) , we follow Magneto and Professor X try to find a way to protect the mutants. While Professor X tries to show the people the mutant’s good side recruiting new mutants , Magneto believes that the only way to survive is to take control over the normal people and destroy them.This rivalry will make him do an ultimatum. In Volume 2 ( #7 to #12) , the X-Men are being held captive by the Weapon X program , what do they want with them and who will save them now? I will keep you updated for the following issues to 😉
So you want to see your favourite Xmen characters in a new skin and cool attitude ? This is for you 🙂
