I really loved this run and it's what got me back into comics. If I didn't already have the OHCs I'd be all over the omni. I just hope it has sewn binding for those of you who get it. Much of the artwork is full bleed and there are two page spreads aplenty. The effect was diminished somewhat in the OHCs because of the binding. In a perfect world Marvel would release an absolute style AXM
I was in the camp that felt the story itself was kind of run of the mill - more a greatest hits of the X-Men with a modern twist than new direction - but that's perfectly fine. It serves as a nice sampling for the casual reader. It's the pacing, characterization, and art that really elevate this to a special place in the X-pantheon. Everything just clicks and makes me smile. Not many new comics do that for me anymore.
