 Death of the Morlocks November 16, 2008
Hands down the greatest corssover tale in comic history, the Mutant Massacre is a must read for any and all comic fans. When a group of assassins called the Marauders start killing off the Morlocks, so begins the X-Team's greatest battles. The Mutant Massacre crossed over to Uncanny X-Men #210-213, X-Factor #9-11, New Mutants #46, Power Pack #27, and Thor #373-374. Highlights include Wolverine vs Sabretooth, Warren Worthington losing his wings, Apocalypse forming the Horsemen, and Psylocke joining the X-Men. Definitely a must read
 Good, not great. June 25, 2008
There are a couple of things that I have problems with in this book, first of all, I felt that it was way too long and had some unneccasary chapters in it, like the ones with Thor. The art is nothing to brag about, even though I am not a huge fan of the 1980's esque art, I have seen alot better than this. At the end, I felt as if it was rushed and came out of nowhere, I was really actually confused.
Let it be known that this is only the second X-Men book that I have read, and maybe may review isnt valid because at the time of reading it, I didn;t know to much about the X-Men. I will read it again, and maybe my opinion will change.
Graphic SF Reader September 3, 2007
One of the oustanding X-Men storylines. This collects all the appropriate X-Men and X-Factor and New Mutants and Thor and Power Pack issues that you need to make up the story. If you prefer color to the black and white version in Essential X-Men, this is the one that you should get. Wolverine vs Sabretooh, no holds barred. Lots of things change for the X-Men out of this story.
 Blast From the Past August 23, 2007
This is a good read for people with the case of nostalgia. Even though it was written by the great Chris Claremont it does have its moments were the story moves really slow. But on an up side this is a very cohesive storyline taking place in several books. Unlike Marvel titles today everything seems to fit together pleasently.
Pretty scary and shocking near beginning December 20, 2005
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
So , I read this while living abroad but I am thinking about adding it to my collection. It is not better TPB then Dark Phoenix, but it is fast paced and has in your face beginning: a group of superpowered beings who are well trained begins to hunt Morlocks. Not scarier than Inferno but near; end of the book is little slower, but the beginning beats every good action/shocker movie, including Predator, Terminator etc. which were the law when I was the kid.
Anyway, if you like old school X-men, get Essential X-men (where you'll see how a new team of Wolverine, Collosus, Storm etc. was forged), Dark Phoenix Saga OR Essential X-men vol.2 , and then Mutant Massacre. I wouldn't reccomend latter to kids, there is too much cruelty.
SPOILER:
And yeah, if you think you hate Mr. S. after you read M.M. , get Further Adventures of Cyclops And Phoenix ... you'll feel for guy...
