X-Men: Uncanny Origins
by Dennis Hopeless
This was pretty fun. X-Men: Season One is a modern retelling of the first year of the original Uncanny X-Men comics. This was narrated by Jean Grey, who—as I’ve said before—is one of my favorite characters in ever. She’s a very animated narrator, and she tells the stories of the other characters well. I enjoyed the art a lot. It was very cartoony, but it worked well for the story being told the way it was. Oh and I hate comic Charles Xavier. I love X-men Fox-verse Charles in both the old and new timeline movies. But every X-Men comic I’ve read, he sucks in. It was interesting to see Jean & Hank call him out on his bullshit.
There was another story at the end, which was the first issue of Uncanny X-Men 2011 or 2012 I believe? Not entirely sure, but it was just ok. I only enjoyed Emma and Magik’s page time if I’m being honest.
Anyways, Dilfneto solos as always, and Jean as well. This was a good introduction to the original X-Men if you’re looking for a place to start.
