Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 'Messiah Complex' Best in Years
After years of watching the X-Men flounder in what seemed to me was a mish-mash of rehashed stories and depressing tone, hope shows it does spring eternal in 'Messiah Complex.' Easily the most complex and indeed important event in recent years, MC brings the X-Men back to what I believe is their core theme, hope in the face of overwhelming odds. New readers definitely want to catch up by reading the 'Endangered Species' storyline and may even want to go back to 'House of M'. For veteran readers of ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good Old Xmen Fun
I haven't bought comics for a long time and only resort to buying Hardcovers or Trade Paperbacks for my comic book fix. I was reluctant to buy Xmen Messiah Complex because I've heard that most crossovers have not lived up their billings. But after reading this at one sitting, I must admit that the art, story,characterization, action, tone, and complexity was very very impressive and well-done.

I found the new X-teams hard to grasp,but after a few more pages, it wasn't that hard to follow. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Well worth my wait
I nearly went crazy waiting for this hardcover to arrive at my library (being broke and unable to buy it, as I would've liked to do) because I kept hearing so much about it: "Messiah Complex" this and "Messiah Complex" that and "the best X-Men crossover in decades" and such. Naturally, I couldn't wait to see if it really was worth the hype and was immediately hooked the instant I got ahold of it.

Well, it's worth the hype, at least in my opinion.

I might be just a tiny bit biased, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - x- specially awesome
this is one of the better x-men stories ive read in a while. the art is also spectacular. there are 4 or 5 different illustators, an they all rocked it in my opinion. i was pleased with this purchase. if you like the x-men, an you like reading comics(or graphic novels, same thing) then you'll enjoy this book.
