One of the strongest X- Men stories ever This edition not only include the main story "Days of Future Past" but also several issues before and after of the story. So, my rating is an overall average based on the sum of all individual ratings per story. Here I sit Now, for the first time, I realize how it must have been for the Professor all these long months This is an astonishing account of the major events of the X-Men history since its beginning to date narrated by not other than Scott Summers aka Cyclops! Told from his personal point of view, he takes the audience in an uncanny journey through the happiest and saddest moments. All done in one single issue! Definitely a marvelous reading.

I believe I am expected. aka Kurt Wagner is celebrating his 21st birthday but an unexpected gift takes his soul to a hellish place that only the guest starring of can help to the X-Men to go there and to help to save Nightcrawler's soul! My first mission-- My only failure. I'd been sent to deal with the . Nightcrawler signs up to go along with . When Wolverine and Nightcrawler are able to reach James MacDonald Hudson aka , he is on an official mission of Alpha The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past, the Canadian government's sanctioned super-hero team. Alpha Flight is tracking a mysterious monster and the team is decimated due some members are away in another mission over USA, so Vindicator is having only Shaman The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past . Soon enough, Wolverine knows that the monster has to be the Wendigo, which he has some reckoning to do, so he offered his help to find the monster. One of the most famous and celebrated stories of the X-Men titles, if not the best, or the only one able to compete against The Dark Phoenix saga, but taking in account that Days of Future Past was developed in only two issues, that's something astonishing impressive! Those "good ol' days" where creative teams aren't mandated by the publishing house to extend any storyline to 6 issues at least thinking already in the marketing of the trade-paperback. Notice that here, Marvel needed to "fill up" the TPB edition with other issues to be to able to charge what they want for the TPB is 13 and a half years old, making her the youngest student ever The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past into the X-Men team so far. She is the newest addition to the team. She is shy and sweet. She is the only hope to save humanity and mutantkind. She is outspoken and driven. The are dead. The are dead. The X-Men are mostly dead. And The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past like 5 mutants are still alive but living in concentration camps. The Sentinels are ruling USA. A crucial moment, inwas the trigger to this dark future, so the solution is clear So a bold plan is forged to send the "conscience" of the old Kate Pryde to reach the body of the young Kitty Pryde, back in the past, to prevent that that future may ocurr. Literally there was a "before" and an "after" in the X-Men 's comic book history with the publication of this story. What am I saying?! They are all gone! I' all alone! Shy and sweet Kitty Pryde is all alone in the X-Mansion, but soon enough she will have a lethal visit and she will have to deal with it all by herself!

Apr 12, Brandon rated it it was ok Shelves:fictioncomixafter-the-end. Nightcrawler is accused of murder and his punishment is brought about by a demon. Sounds cool, right? Well, I was bored to tears and this is mostly The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past to the horrifically bad dialogue. Let the images carry you. From the trailers I've seen, it looks like the screenwriters are playing around with a few of the roles each character has in the original story - which is fine by me. I already have a deep rooted appreciation for anything post-apocalyptic and Claremont and company really nail it. DOFP is the only thing worth checking out here. Also posted Every Read Thing.

But in earlythe pop-culture landscape was different. And then you opened it up, and you were immersed. Wolverine and a brunette woman stand in a pile of rubble, backs to a wall, staring toward the reader. Wolverine The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past, for some reason, gray-haired and aged. The previous issue had been standard fare: The X-Men join up with some Canadian allies and beat the crap out of a furry monster called Wendigo. The final page featured third-tier villain the escaping from prison. No doubt many readers were expecting issue No. Instead, readers opened to the first page and saw X-Man Kitty Pryde walking through a bombed-out Manhattan in what looks like a prison uniform. In the previous issue, Kitty had been 13 years old, but now, she appeared to be middle-aged. This kind of disorienting, in media res opener had a small degree of precedent. Then the story would leap backward immediately and tell the wacky tale of how we got there. Over the next few pages, we see Kitty rendezvous with the aged Wolverine from the cover image. They talk about the U. Kitty walks past a row of gravestones with the names of various Marvel superheroes. She reaches some kind of mutant gulag in the Bronx and meets a sad, small group of X-Men, including an apparently benevolent and inexplicably wheelchair-bound . More importantly, should it? We are toying with the basic fabric of reality. We periodically flip back to the action in the future, where the desperate band of X-Men take on the Sentinels and fail miserably. is fatally stabbed in the spine by a spear. Everyone cries. In the present, Kitty stops the assassination and leaves her teen body … but the story ends on an ambiguous note. All told, one would be hard-pressed to find a more death-filled, ambiguous, and depressing superhero tale published up to that point in comics history. Hell, even the death-of—Gwen Stacy story in Spider-Man had featured the bad guy The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past his just desserts. Here, there was no lifeline of justice. How did such an ambitiously grim tale come to be? The behind-the-scenes story is, in its own way, a sad one. Writer Chris Claremont and artist John Byrne had worked on the series together since and, in that time, had rocketed it to the top of the sales charts. And now they were breaking up. Marvel had decided to put Byrne on Fantastic Four. So they decided to go The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past little nuts. Series editor Louise Simonson was of a similar mindset. I wanna order a lot of that one. Byrne also knew death was a big draw, and needed villains who were up to the task. Byrne was being modest. In a strictly linear sense, the story forever changed the X-Men universe. Sincethere have been an insane number of sequels and revisitations of the story. The aforementioned Rachel character soon traveled The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past the present and became a major player in the X-Men and remains so to this day. On a more general level, the story introduced a motif that would become, for better or worse, central to the X-Men franchise: time travel. Since then, the characters have been tossed back and forth in the timestream over and over again, creating and destroying parallel universes in story after story. But you can also find it popping up The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past geek TV. Lostalso The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past by X-Men fans, began its final season with everyone in an alternate realityand we had to wait until the last episode to find out how the characters got there. It also had an episode where a character travels in time by tossing his consciousness into his younger self. There was no fat to it. It had a drive. It was just really, really, really well done.

I found this "Days of The Future Past" arc in bargain sales years ago, before the movie version. Even in those age, we already heard something about near future theme where Sentinels almost The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past all mutants. It was so cheap and in mint condition, so I didn't think long to buy it. The art was as expected for s Marvel's comic books. The basic idea was similar as in movie version.

In a dystopian future, Kate Pryde is sent back in time, switching consciousness with the Kitty The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past ofto prevent the assassination of Senator . Will she be able to prevent her timeline from happening or will the Senator be killed, setting off a shock wave of anti-mutant hysteria? This one is the 48 pager.

I stumbled upon it in a used bookstore that I hate and figured I was winning one back The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past the good guys considering it's low price. I've been wanting to read this story for a couple decades and never got around to it. Was it worth the wait? I'll let you know in a bit. The story itself is pretty cool. Angel is back and the rest of the lineup is pretty much the standard Byrne-Claremont lineup. The dystopian future was my favorite part of the story. I liked seeing Franklin Richards, , and a wheelchair-bound Magneto, as well as both Wolverine and with white at the temples. Do comic characters never go gray in a pattern other than the look? Speaking of Reed Richards, the graveyard with all the superhero headstones in it really sold how bad the future had become after Robert Kelly's death. As for the present day part of the story, it's pretty much standard superhero fare for the time. I did like that they hinted about a connection between and Nightcrawler way back then. One observation I had was that Wolverine's healing factor wasn't so ridiculous in either branch of the story. In the present, he's brought to his knees by 's attack and, in the future, he's roasted and killed by a . Wolverine goes through more crap than that in two or three issues of his current comic without missing a beat. Claremont and Byrne raised the bar for other comics with their X-Men run. Byrne's art was at the head of the pack in its day and people still use what Claremont did as a model. So, Was it worth the wait? Let's just say my 14 year old self would have enjoyed it a lot more than my 34 year old self. It's still definitely worth a read and was revolutionary for its time but it's a little on the dated side. View 1 comment. A little dated, but worth the read for my X-Men reading purposes. Feb 20, heidi rated it it was amazing. I should have read this one before Storm not that I regret it much for better continuity of plot. Anyway, this story about a future authoritarian world makes a compelling read. The whole of Earth is guarded by Sentinels, robots that were at first designed to guard and protect humans, until at some point the robots decided that the biggest threat to humanity is - surprise! And the worst of humans? Mutants with superpowers. And so the robots decided to take over the gov I should have read this one before Rogue Storm not that I regret it much for better continuity of plot. And so the robots The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past to take over the governments and 'babysit' the world's citizens under their rigid laws. Those who escape live in disguise on the outer fringes of human habitation. This story starts many years after the rise of the Sentinels. The start of the comic book is a little depressing because some of my favorite X-Men have apparently died at the hands of the Sentinels, leaving only a few to hatch a plan to save the planet Thumbs up for the good story line The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past beautiful artwork. Why can't the newer comic books be as good as the older ones? May 13, Stephen rated it it was amazing Shelves: graphic-novels-and- comicsalternate-history-or-timelinesdystopiatime-travel. I loved re-reading this classic Marvel story arc. The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past Claremont made The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past successful jump into alternate timelines and muddy continuum with this story. Although X-men timelines became a mess later, this was well done and super fun. This is the original two issue story that inspired the movie with the same name. The events here had far reaching impact on The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past of X-men titles. Anyone who claims to be a fan of the X-men or Marvel comics really should give this 47 page story a read! Jul 16, Matt rated it really liked it Shelves: graphic-novelsmarvel.

I first read this book as a pre-teen shortly after seeing the 's X-Men animated series do an adaptation of this comic. The cartoon and the comic have very little in common. I actually prefer the animated adaptation to this story. I believe that this story is well-told, but it is hard to judge if it should be considered one of the greatest Marvel stories of all time. I think you could debate this from both sides, so I'll side with those that believe it is one of the greatest because it was ahead of its time. Oct 29, Olivia rated it liked it. I kept forgetting to write this, so this is probably not as of an insightful review as it could have been. This is my second X-Men experience brought on completely by the upcoming movie. I definitely liked it better than The Wolverine. It was shorter but it was a lot more The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past packed. I can see the great potential in an awesome X-Men movie storyline here.
