expectation of clear memories, but still it was a surprise to read it again and see just how far removed my brain was from the reality First, I remembered the story being big HUGE, in f Man oh Man My

what you need to understand is that this volume only officially contains the two issues concerning the time traveling storyline that has been known now as a classic Claremont must have The rest were supplemental ones Comprised of issues 138 143 of The Uncanny X Men line plus the Annual 4 with Dr Strange, this volume of Days of Future Past is actually less about the famed story arc mentioned It

to admit that it s a little misleading Only two of the issues presented here are actually about the Days of Future Past storyline There are like three or four issues that take place at the beginning of this volume that summarize the history of the X Men and explain what happened in the Dark Phoenix Saga, which I was almost convinced that I would never finish this It was thicker than the average

through these older X Men stories originally written by Chris Claremont, I wondered to myself about how the X Men stories were like back then versus how they are now The stories back then seemed to

ensures you will hate the X Men with his ultra crappy writing and storytelling Full review hereThis was funny I just can t take these X Men or their dialog seriously I almost threw up from laughing so hard There was like thirty pages of recap in the beginning involving all sorts of random shit, like a T Rex and caveman villain, the whole Wendigo story Sasquatch Solomon Grundy eating your frozen meat popsicle friends turns you into a tundra werewolf monster , and an evil pterodactyl man villain thing Good laughs.Nightcrawler has a birthday where he gets a little crystal figurine o This was

tale of X men lore Instead, 34 years later, it s an undeveloped and rather dull disappointment It turns out the original story is only two issues long and nowhere as good as I recalled it The cover
