This review contains SPOILERS! Do NOT read if you want to remain spoiler free! Again, I refer to details of the plot that you should avoid by not reading if you don't want to know what happens in the story. I have to confess that I underestimated Joss Whedon. I don't often do that. BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER is my all time favorite TV series (along with BATTLESTAR GALACTICA) and I've loved ANGEL and FIREFLY along with other projects like DR. HORRIBLE. I have also loved Whedon's ... Read More Rating: - This is great stuff, but the end suffers I both LOVE this book and at the same time, I really don't. Yes, I know, quite schizophrenic, but then again, so is the writing. I will say some wonderful, wonderful things in this review, because this book deserves it, but before I say anything else, here this: Lower your expectations as regards to a decent ending. Lower them completely. And now enjoy. The artist won 3 eisner awards for best artist in a row, so it figures that the artwork is absolutely stunning. But to read ... Read More Rating: - Great ending! What an awesome close to the series! I really liked the story arc. Throughout the series, I've appreciated the fact that someone who's fairly unfamiliar with the numerous X-Men plots can pick this up and go and still be invested in the characters. There's a great use of humor throughout the books, without detracting from the way that it ends. Rating: - A great storyline that continues to deliver all the way through.... Please do not be swayed by any ignorant individual who would rank this series or particular storyline as a 1 or even 2 star rating. The story is superb. The writing keeps well established characters consistently delivering their unique personality types and great look from years past and implementiing a renewed look and development of this story arc. Simply put this is a don't miss series. Astonishing is in my top 3 of trades I must pick up at each release and read along with Wolverine and New ... Read More Rating: - Yay, Joss! The fourth and final(?) installment in Joss Whedon's run at scripting the X-Men was a real tour-de-force. While the earlier books were all entertaining, this one really has the payoff. There's some deliciously tart, hilarious dialogue and several quintessentially Whedon-esque moments that will make fans of "Buffy" and "Dr. Horrible" snort aloud with laughter. Plus, several of the main characters get laid, approaching sex in a frank and unapologetic, non-fanboyish way that is quite refreshing to see in a mainstream ...
