Continuing writer Chris Claremont's classic run on the Uncanny X-Men, this collection of X-tales features the Children Of The Atom battling some of the world's most deady villains. When their closest friends are kidnapped, the X-Men are blackmailed into travelling to Latveria to free the murderous Arcade from the clutches of Dr Doom. Next, they return to New York to combat a crazed deformed mutant known as Caliban. Finally their arch-enemy Magneto makes his latest bid for world-domination, and the X-Men find themselves in a lethal race against time to stop his crazed scheme. A situation made a hundred times worse as they have been robbed of their mutant abilities. Powerless, outclassed, and with the very planet at stake, they must find a way to stop him at any cost.
Collects UXM # 144 - 150
This is an ok pocketbook, its nice to see the team act without Cyclops for once. It was also great to see the re-appearences of Havok, Polaris, Banshee and Iceman. Iceman especially since we haven't seen him since the first pocketbook. The stories are, good but the last story with Magneto was the best of the lot.
I'd give this an 8/10, could've been longer
